Race Report - NASA Northeast Thunderbolt

1 comment | Posted by Mark Petronis on
It's been a little over a month since our last race outing at NJMP Lightning with NASA. A big win on Saturday and a crushing loss on Sunday meant there were questions to be answered - namely why the hell was I so slow in the rain? Having discovered my rain tires were 8 years old I took my Hoosier Tire winnings from Saturday and had them send me a set of brandy new wet-only H20s.  Unlike most Corvette drivers I'd be praying for rain at my next event to put them to the test to try and redeem my...

Welcome to the first racing blog post of 2019!  On May 4th and 5th we found ourselves at NJMP Lightning with a whopping 10 cars signed up to race in ST2.  Season was sure to start off with a bang (a good one, hopefully) bringing lots of rookies and seasoned vets alike to the track.  I'll re-cap a couple small items since our last race at Watkins Glen before we get to the fresh stuff at NJMP. ...The Past 7 Months...

TL:DR  After completing 0 laps at Limerock in July, the entire engine wiring harness was rebuilt to exorcise the electronic demons that had been plaguing the car.  Car was tested at Limerock the week before our race at Watkins Glen and everything worked fine.  Raced at Watkins Glen and managed 2nd place finishes in both Saturday and Sunday races and 2nd in TTU on Saturday.  Car ran great 2 days in a row for the first time in I don't know how long.

NJMP Thunder Bolt Race Recap

I just learned what TL:DR means - “Too long, didn’t read.” I should probably throw those at the top of all my blog posts since they do tend to get a little wordy. So here goes. TL:DR - Raced at NJMP June 9-10 but terrible weather and wonky electronics led to bizarre race scenarios in which I was racing for nothing (or not at all).
