Beat the old record by 1.3 seconds and my new record is faster than all existing records except 3RP (which is the highest class) Had FTD going after 5 runs but ended up getting beat by an 3RP car. Not bad for a stock Z06, let me tell you those Hoosier fly, to bad a torn the tire apart on the second day.

I might just be too fast for Hoosiers:dontknow:


Big thanks to Greg from PFE for setting up the car and being my crew chief for the weekend

Ken, nice job. Do you think more negative camber would have made that tire last longer?

I have -2 degree I don't think I can get much more, I talked with Hoosier and they said those tires did that and offered me $50 off :bs: a new A6 which was redesigned to fix that problem. Temps were warmer on the inside.

It was a NCCC event the 4th of 5 in the High speed series, 3RP is group 3 (highest I'm group 1) RP is Race prepared (race cars, Danny Kellermeyer's world challenge car is a 3RP car)


NCCC records for Gratton http://michcorvette.org/grtrack.pdf


It was single laps starting from a standstill at the beginnin g of the straight with the start/finish halfway up the straight so it was close to a flying lap.


Last event is this Sunday at Gingerman and is open to all cars

so 5rwhp for the floormats... 2 for the clear markers... how many stickers are we talking about??:icon_mrgr
 
Nice run Ken. Sounds like you need Greg to do some heads, slide in a cam, some big brakes, and go for the overall win next year.

That's what I was thinking too. Historically, Hoosiers really like a lot of camber. One of my co-workers used to have a tire deal with Hoosier when he ran American Sedan. I can ask him what he used to run for camber.

If you can keep up in the video game, you should be able to keep up in real life.
You coming out tonight? You will get owned in Ghost Recon.
