Track Video: Spring Mountain, NV

Last weekend at Spring Mountain Raceway in Nevada.

It was a great event and some very fast laps were put down.

Here is some in car footage of 1 of the sessions late in the day.

Fastest lap was 2:40 on the 3.3 mile track.

Weapon of choice:

MO,

Wish I had better internet where I am so I could watch the Vid.

How did the new Suspension do? How does she compare to Gomez's ride?

Jason,

Good to hear from you.

The new suspension was awesome along with the new toyo r888.

Overall it took 12 seconds of my last time there with a stock car.

The suspension still has a bit to de dialed in.

Gomez took me out by 3 hundreth's of a second... but a win is a win.

Thats awsome man!

Way to chase down Gomez! He is probably getting close to swapping out his Damptronics now!

It was a battle for 2 days.

I would get fastest lap, nest session he would... then i would push harder and get fastest lap...and so on.

We both ran toyo R888 and WOW, what a difference from street rubber.

We are only going to push harder and faster each time on the track until we get to 10/10's... or worse ;(

My front pads were shot so I have to change them before next race so I can brake deeper and later.

This $hit is so much fun!

I love the first video, especially when you get stuck behind an old 911 and start cursing! "Come on man!!! WTF?!?!?"

Btw that is an awesome track!!! It's huge! The turns are really smooth and it is wide as well...

I would love to take my car on the track with you guys, and see how I do
