JIC/CROSS Time Attack Porsche Wins at Redline Time Attack Summit Point!
The Hankook Tire / JIC USA Porsche 993 GT2, usually competing in the Formula Drift Pro Series, breaks the lap time record at Summit Point and walks away with the Overall Championship at Redline Time Attack.
The Hankook Tire / JIC USA Team headed up north to West Virginia for the Redline Time Attack that was being held for the weekend. The pit row was buzzing with the top Time Attack teams such as AMS, GSC Motorsports, and of course, the Hankook Tire / JIC USA team. This time, the Hankook Tire / JIC USA Drift Porsche was converted to do some double duty serving as a Time Attacker rather than a Drift Car this weekend. The Porsche was piloted by Tyler McQuarrie and the Nissan Silvia S15 was piloted by JIC USA’s other Time Attack Driver, Tanner Foust.
Last year at this event, the Nissan Silvia was able to break a lap time record so all eyes were on both Tyler and Tanner as they both strapped in and began the first day of practice. They both showed consistent times throughout the day with minor issues popping up it was something that the team was able to fix right away to insure a successful practice day.
Sunday, the main event day, the Hankook Tire / JIC USA Team was poised to really compete and dominate the field of Mitsubishi Evolutions and Subaru WRX STi’s. All eyes were on the two drivers as they set out on the technical and high speed track that is Summit Point Raceway. Both drivers set out and drove to their fullest potential. At the end of the day, the Hankook Tire / JIC USA team was able to walk away with a list of awards. The Hankook Tire / JIC USA Porsche driven by Tyler McQuarrie took the Overall Win with the Fastest Lap, Unlimited Class 1st Place, and Rear Wheel Drive Unlimited 1st Place with a lap time record breaking time of 1:28.803. Tanner Foust was able to break the previous record of the Silvia from last year and score a 3rd Place Overall Win and 2nd Place Rear Wheel drive with a lap time of 1:31.218. The team celebrated in much joy as they have broken two key lap time records during this season.
