Default WSIR Pics & Vid May 6th

Some in-car photos and video of my TT event on Saturday. The TT group combined all classes from the fastest TT Race prep cars thru TTE into one 40 car race group with full open passing. I was one of 3 cars competing in TTD, but 40+ on the track. I had a hell of a time constantly being overtaken by the faster cars including a Ford GT350, ZO6's and a bevy of others which really racked my nerves. The good thing is that I officially have my NASA Pro Racing License now, so I can compete (lose) nationally with them.

I was going to race again today, but completely destroyed my front tires on Saturday and have to special order replacements.

The coordinators and competitors with The National Auto Sports Association are a great group of racers. They had a few jokes to say about the underpowered Crossfire, but were happy to see one finally on the track with their group.

I want to thank SRT6_Crossfire for coming out to visit he's a terrific guy and wanna be racer, I'm sure I'll be seeing him at the track in the future.

Here's some video of my BUTT being whipped by nearly everyone on the track. http://www.hollywooddigitalimaging.com/WSIR1.mov

Looks like great fun Derek. There looks to be some SERIOUS machinery to contend with out there!

Well done for actually making it out on there on the track - that was a victory in itself given the circumstances! Hopefully you will get a bit more time to prepare for the next one.

Simon.
