Default Mongoose GS Racecar in-car video Gateway International Raceway

Hope I'm not boring anyone with all these videos, just thought you might like to see some different things. I had a busy week of racing last week between RunnGun and Mid-ohio and thought I would share with my Corvette friends!

This is the annual Kit Car Run n Gun shootout that we do every year in St. louis at Gateway International Raceway. Factory Five,Backdraft,Stalker Lotus 7's,RCR replicas,Shell Valley,Gt 40's,etc.

www.Runngun.net

They want to see who can build the best car to Roadrace,autocross and normally drags but the track cut that out do to unsafe cars going 10's. So to replace that event they came up with a BARRELL race, just like a horse in a rodeo except cars.

It was a monsoon all 3 days but we ran anyways. I was in the new Mongoose GS racer with a GM crate LS376 CI with 515HP and weighed in at 2,550 with me in it.

This was ran like a NASA TT event where you had 25 minutes to get your best lap and there were 4 sessions. My best was a 1:21 and change and the Super 7 was 2nd with a 1:25 and change. little different then last years time of 1:02.2.

We won all 3 events in class and overall once again for the third year in a row. Thanks Mongoose for letting me drive your awesome cars even if it was in the rain this year.

Here is the Video, you can see me wiping the windshield/Lexan while trying to drive on the roadcourse.

Enjoy,

Aaron

Tell Gary to put in a trunk monkey button so you just push the button and he will jump out and wipe the windsheild for you.
