VIR Thread-East rounds 3 & 4
VIR F1000 Championship Series
Great show guys at VIR!
It is a Bummer not being there with new paving and increased track out at the Oak Tree turn. Many times there was a ditch on exit in Oak Tree from others dropping wheels that have more ground clearance. Track records were sure to fall.
Unfortunately my Diff cannibalized itself in Race 2 at Road Atlanta and I could not get everything back together in time. But maybe it saved me from the T1 pileup. But then again I would have preferred to be in T1 to hopefully capitalize. Road Atlanta was a challenge for us with various odd things happening all weekend let alone the crazy officiating that scored me wrong.:mad:
Best of luck!
