    Our best lap was 1:59. Saturday we placed 15. It was a blast. We will get some pics and vids up soon. Sunday was hell for us. Car was out for an hour and we broke the engine and tranny mounts and killed the radiator. Pulled in and had it all replaced in about an hour and a half. Back out on for another hour and the head gasket went. We got some work to do but learned a lot!

    There is always a lot of learning to be done with these events. Sounds like you guys didn't do too bad for your first event!

    We are all really noob to this. All of us on the team have a lot to learn. It was a great time though, next time we are going to be much more prepared...







    All of our team showed great improvement in the small amount of time we had on the track. We are going to try and have our car put back together for the next driving school at BIR and for sure by the 14 hour race in july.
