IMSA Continental Tire Challenge Series GT4 class

So if your wondering how I did, I qualified 6th with a 1:26.4. I ran in 6th and moved to 5th for the first ~30 minutes running very closely with some excellent pro's until I crashed at turn 2. No ones fault but my own. Tires were falling off, car was getting looser and I should have backed it down more but I was letting it slide and get a little too loose around turn 2 until one time it broke loose , I spun and hit the outside tire wall. Mostly cosmetic damage and we were able to continue but it caused a pit stop for repairs and we ended up finishing 8th.

I had 30 minutes in a Mustang before this event and about 30 minutes of total track time at CTMP before this event so it was a new car and a new track for me. It is hard to stay on the limit at a new track without having a "moment." Also we were learning the car and definitely had the tire pressures too high and the tires started falling off too much too quickly, but that said the crash was all on me. I'm a rookie and still learning. I can be fast but it will take time to keep refining my skills to get more consistent over the long haul. I'm looking forward to more seat time and to keep learning. I'm using this year as my development year -- many of the track are new to me, a new team, new car.

Even though I crashed I was happy that for the first 30 minutes right up until I crashed I was right behind the 2 cars that got first and second in the race (Stevenson Camero that won and the Cayman that got second).

 

Yes we did.

 

Thank you. Nice to meet you at the PWC race and put a face to the name. I'm also a customer of yours and love your Carbonio products!
