Post-Event Review:
The LVMS's road course ROCKS! It was my first time on their track but man it was just SWEET. I had a really slow car (topped out only at 95mph in the straights) but there were other cars such as a 600+rwhp Supra, a 400rwhp Cobra, etc that was topping out at close to 130mph at the end of the straights. The turns were all 40mph-60mph turns (if you know how to drive) and I got a good full hour of track time. I could have had more but my car was overheating due to the 90 degree heat, high rpm racing, and a rinkadink radiator. My fastest lap time was 1:38.016. Just for comparison purposes: a 97? Cobra was turning 1:36.010 a stock car was out doing 1:30s a 1st gen spec RX7 was at 1:39s (Spec RX-7s are SCCA club-racing dominators. I was happy I was beating this guy). the Supra was doing 1:40s (decent driver, a previous 600+rwhp Supra was turning 1:32s) My highlights: Passing a C4 in a turn while he was on power. Passing a new Mustang GT in the straight cause he didn't exit a turn correctly. Getting passed by the Supra when i was WOT at 90mph and he passed me like i stood still. Following a new driver in his M3 getting sideways in 90% of the turns. It was A LOT of fun. Well worth every penny of the $170 i paid. Getting lap times also helped understand how I was progressing (if at all). For those who attended the Open-track.com's event, what times were you guys posting? |
What car was this in?
