johnc Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 For those that want some serious speed around a race track: http://sccaforums.com/forums/159737/ShowPost.aspx Some lap times: Willow Springs (big track): 1:30.xxx on 140 treadwear street tires. Willow Springs (big track): 1:23.xxx on Hoosier RS03s. Thunderhill: 1:58.xxx on 140 treadwear street tires. Thunderhill: 1:53.xxx on Hoosier R3S03s. On Hoosiers it can run with and beat Radical SR3s.

PeterZ Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I've seen those cars race too, they're a wild sight especially when they blow by me in the ITX car. They are 15 seconds faster than the ITX car at Laguna. I'm finally racing T-Hill in my DSR after some time off for repairs. I hope to get down to lap times like Paul's (and I have slicks). I managed to shorten my DSR with about ten other cars at Infineon a while back. This is the last race of the season so off I go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 I was driving a SRF at a Friday practice at Buttonwillow and SCCA put all the sports racers and open wheel cars in one practice group. I was OK with the S2000s, CSRs, DSRs, Formual Fords, but the Formula Atlantics just scared the crap out of me when they went by. I would check my rear view mirrors before each turn and maybe see a dot back at the start of the straight I was just completing. By the time I checked my mirrors for the next corner the FA was right on my ***, diving into the inside of the corner, and was gone...

PeterZ Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Yeah, I just got my new helmetcamera.com set-up working for a race at Laguna. I know what you mean. Video for qualifying and racing looks like I was like sitting in the middle of a flash flood with all this $#!+ roaring past. I enjoyed the one time we raced DSR in the SRF group. Much more fun for me. P.S.: I highly recommend the Helmetcamera.com kit. The remote pushbutton start/stop and remote camera lens are great features.
