    in practise line. people ran 200 mph dedicated rigs to rental cars at 95 mph. the races are about 100 miles long, with highest average speed for 100 miles 194 mph for this course.


    i plan to try 165 [top] at the Elko race in 3 weeks. i need to set alignment for high speed as the car is hunting across 10 feet of road at 150... toe-out problem most likely...

    Wow Watt, that looks like a LOT of fun. Too bad I live so far away.



    If you see this car (from openroadracing.com), give the guy a high 5 for me.. I got a kick out of the stickers and plate.
