Highlights from Sunday's Spec Racer Ford Race at COTA


COTA Super Tour Qualifying - Onboard Video

This is my fastest lap from Spec Racer Ford qualifying at the 2017 SCCA Hoosier Super Tour event at the Circuit of the Americas. This was my first race weekend in a Spec Racer Ford and it was pretty darn fun to drive at COTA despite the low engine power. I qualified 5th in class with a 2:37.274 which put me about 0.8s off the Pole.

Spec Racer Ford Onboard Video from MSR Cresson

Here is onboard video of my fastest lap from testing the Spec Racer Ford yesterday. It was my first time driving an SRF. The car could definitely use some fine tuning but it is in the ballpark. I'm really happy with the baseline pace and reliable running yesterday. On to COTA in a few days!
It dawned on me today that this is my first day at MSR Cresson without a major drivetrain failure. Hopefully that is a sign of things to come. (Knocking on wood)
