Default NASA TTR Record at PIR Dropped Again

The record has been set again by Ralph Masterson in his 427 C5 FRC. He destroyed the old record of 1:07.10 with a 1:05.7xx. There was stiff competition from two ASC race cars nipping at his heals in the TTR (Unlimited) class. Ralph ran a 1:05.5xx on this track with CRA last month so we knew he could easily take the NASA record, and he did not disappoint.
It was great to see the record continue to be held by a Corvette and a member of the Arizona Corvette Racers group (ACR). Ralph is actually from Colorado but is a member of ACR and runs with us and some of you may have seen him at other western states tracks.
Congratulation to Ralph from the previous record holder... I've got some work to do now...

Damn that is pretty fast, for sure...

So how is your EX-JDGUN_13 car doing these days?
any chance for some pictures?

I was at portland in September but i ended up on the ground with my bike in turn 3 (for bikes) as we dont use the chicane on the front straight.
