The only time I've raced at RA was the SCCA Labor day weekend.
What a blast. I got my first win in Legends class there on Sunday,
but got beat in the rain on Monday.
The first practice laps I had were in rain on Saturday.. Try learning that track when it's wet.
We ran with the Spec Racer Fords and several of the small displacement sports cars, as well as a bunch of Baby Grands.
Lots of carnage, particularly the SRF's. I saw two of them get together in 12 right in front of me. The one on the outside removed his rear clip on the retaining wall.
The only dry race we had all weekend was Saturday afternoon, and I finished 17'th overall out of 59 starters.
Hank,
You're right about turn 12. It takes a lot to keep your foot down as the car drifts toward that wall and you're waiting for it to hook up at the exit.
I can't wait to get started next year with a fresh motor. Hopefully I can whip up on some of the guys who helped me get started this year.
Later,
