I've entered the NARRC Runoffs at Lime Rock next Saturday. This will be only my second race this season and I'm already champin' at the bit.
The "A" motor is installed after a full refresh but there are some fast Miatas entered in my class so it won't be a walk in the park. The races are scheduled to be 34 laps. That's 6 miles longer than a National race. I don't know if my fuel cell is big enough. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Spectator entry fee is $20 I think, so its a cheap day of racing at Lime Rock for the fans. I'm in race 1 of 8, and we have a field of 29 cars in our group, with 7 F Prod cars entered so far. If you're thinking of attending, warmups are at 9am and my race will probably start close to 10.  |

Saturday morning flooding
 It rained all day  Once qualifying was over the rain stopped  Saturday was a perfect race day  This is right before I started getting the car ready for warm-ups. We kept the car up in the air overnight.  I changed the air correction jets, thinking I needed to richen the mixture to account for the cold weather and air density. On Friday my altimeter indicated that we were at an effective altitude of 1100ft. Saturday AM it was down to 550ft.  Unfortunately, the engine ran too rich. Combined with the rpm cutoff I was way down on power. Here we are moving the car onto the scales after the race.  Minimum legal weight for my car is 1970lb, with driver. The guy in the yellow sweatshirt owns a very fast street legal 3.5L that's set up for the track.  |
