What a great weekend June 23-24, 2018!! Weather could not have been more perfect for racing.
On Saturday I managed to take 2nd place from a very fast Corolla! We were bumper to bumper the whole weekend except when his extra 35 hp let him pull me in the straights. I managed to whip the car around the corners to pickup extra time and keep him behind me. Separated by only .1 seconds with a respectable 1:46.7 lap time.
On Sunday I kept pushing the faster corners trying to eek out a stronger lead. I managed to keep the Corolla behind me but only .03 seconds leading into the final session. Finally I stitched the track together a little smoother, managed to run a 1:46.1 which is now my new personal best at Gingerman Raceway.
I still need to fix my diff. The spare from Midwest Miata Parts LLC MWMP isn’t going in just yet! One more cleaning to do with my current torsen before I throw in the towel.
Much love to all my NASA Great Lakes crew for a killer event. Instructing in HPDE3 was an awesome experience and I hope to keep it up in the future!
