Ultimate Track Car Challenge

[R1 Seven]

Here is a front straight fly-by video that someone put up from the event. All of us make an appearance at some point.

Mazda - DO IT!

If you look real hard, you can see me standing at the fence at the short straight between the two curves one turn after the main straight.

 

Just kidding.

 

I'll try and get my vids from that perspective up this week.

It sounds as if this was basically a one-day version of the Open Track Challenge - which, in the last year I competed, was a great battle between a Viper Competition Coupe and the Radicals.

 

I know the Atom retired with wheel bearing problem, how was it running before that happened?

It seemed to be running well. As luck would have it we were in close proximity in the session that he ran in when the wheel bearing failed. I was pulling away in the twisty bits, but his HP more than made up for it on the straights. There was about a 1 second difference in our lap times, with the advantage going to the Atom. That was when my car was driving at it's worst...might have been closer with a more sorted car. Coulda, woulda, shoulda...
