Road America

[GT Venum]

Had a great day at Road America. Unfortunately we didn't have our GT.

I, too, had a great day at Road America on Saturday, July 20, with the Robertsons. I parked the #2 car at their transporter and it got quite a bit of attention! Here're a couple of pics of Dave next to it!

Those flared fenders are wicked. It really makes an already aggressive body look even more sinister.

I guess these are the only kind of mirrors where you can actually see what's behind still prefer the stock ones for obvious reasons

Ralphie, great to meet you!

Ralphie, It was great to hang out with you on a "Cali" weather day at such a great track. And talk with the Robertsons again. Very cool to see their GT's on track...where they should be! Good fun.

Great to meet and hang out with MNJason and his friends for the weekend as well. Many good stories!

Perfect track for the GT...I easily hit 160 mph in all 3 straights with a box stock and a very tired prototype (and yes, the Goodyear's). No late braking, no drama...I would hate to see how fast it would be with the Hoosiers, engine mods and pushing it. The elevation, corner variety, straights, scenery and great track food (best in the country IMHO) make it a high priority track for a FGT.

Have a great time Biginch Blake!
