that's me and the Probe; in the Red Group, monday at Summit!
car was set up in typical 'DE configuration'; street tires and street brakepads. ran flawlessly all day; just add gas!
i just finished loading her up for the big race this weekend (NASA Hyperfest at Summit Point; i'll be in PTE class): www.hyper-fest.com
now the Probe is wearing fresh R compounds (Hankook Z211 leftovers) and racing pads. I need to run 1:27s consistently, or maybe low low 1:28s, to run up front in PTE; i think i might be able to stretch to that laptime, with the Rcomps and race pads, if i drive 105% the entire time..... (the above vid is about 90% or so).
wish me luck, and i'll report back! there are going to be a TON of cars racing; there are 64 registered in my heat, and 9 in class!!!!! can you say 'gotta qualify up front' and 'holy moly this is like rush hour on the beltway!'
talk later,
