    Default Meanwhile... at Summit Point

    Tim Minor turned a 1:09.6

    New FC track record.

    The Automotive Specialist, Bungalow, Hoosier, Citation hot rod is back!

    Back story:
    About a year ago Tim was tire testing at Summit.
    Going into a turn a wheel center broke. (the Citation does create some serious Gs)
    Tim went for a wild ride that for all intents and purposes destroyed the car.
    We are talking about damage i think worse than a Tatuus way back in '05.
    I'm guessing about 70% of the parts on the car were toast. I'm not talking about mirrors and things; more like bellhousings, frame tubes, and engine blocks. Serious wipe out.

    This comeback record is after a total frame up restoration that Tim did in his shop.

    Gotta wonder what he thought on that first hot lap going through that corner...

    Congrats to Major Minor!
