LRP National Roll Call

[RobLav]

I'm going. Anybody else? New smooth track is phenomenal.

I can't join you at LRP this year, but really want to get back there someday. Before I moved south ten years ago I spent a lot of time there and really miss it. If you do in- car video for this upcoming race, I'll look forward to watching it.

Have fun and good luck.

[RobLav]

No video yet Russ. Maybe next year.

One other F1000 is signed up - Ron Ignatowski.

Hey Rob,

Nice run with the new lap record - 50.9!

Thanks Chris. It started to all come back together. I walked the track Friday night after the rain let up. At the start, I let everybody by me and was dead last (25th) out of Big Bend. I wanted to attack the track with a fresh perspective with minimal distractions. It really helped. That was the 8th heat cycle on those Hoosiers... I wanted to see how the car responded on old tires. So there's probably another couple seconds to be gained. Not bad I guess going from 25th to 12th with no yellows.

Congrats on your win too. Fahan broke the FC record, but I think he was held up by a slow Atlantic Zetec.

Thanks, Dennis. Great pictures.

That's a ballsy pass of that Atlantic, Rob! You must've been hooked up! :-).

Ummm - that or that was Paul LeCain, who lapped everyone but two other cars, lapping Rob yet one more time. He was turning 47's, and went by me like I was parked. I finished 5th overall, and was STILL two laps down to Paul.

Cheers,

Chris C.

Russ was being facetious Chris! I let Paul in there on the inside, probably his second time around me.

Nice pictures Dennis. Thank you.

[P.W. LeCain]

I'd just print the picture. hang it on the wall, and TELL everybody how I used to blow by Atlantics on the outside...it's a much cooler story and chicks dig that!

Oops! My bad...

I'd still do what Paul suggested and hang up the photo!

Here's another picture of an FB car/driver kicking ass with and outside pass:

I like how Rob is casually looking over at the car being passed, as if saying, "That all you got?" :-)

Facitious R,

[Mike B]

Does anybody have a Mylaps link for this race?

[RobLav]

I checked yesterday and nothing.

It is on the NESCCA site though.
