Default Hotchkis Autocross Race videos. 3/28-29/2015.

The Nationals? Nope. The Pro Solo? Nope. Big fun? Yep. And now they even have the "Hotchkis Cup" The guy with the best 26 lap average time for the two days.

Day 1. Top time. Best average time.

Day 2. 2nd. overall. Best average time.

Winner of the "Hotchkis Cup"

Great meeting you and thanks for the coaching and set up. Knocked 1.5 seconds off my time over three runs

Nice runs. I don't think any autocross that takes lap averages would go well for me...

After watching your Sunday video, I'm wondering if that elusive 29.999 wasn't in that run. The short run-off had us all letting up at the finish there. Sounds like you let up just beyond that last little wall's apex cone....so basically you were coasting the last 15-20 feet.

After watching some of the more "exciting" finishes narrowly skirting disaster, it was very disconcerting for me to keep my foot into it all the way to the finish line.

You, Dan and Rita did right representing our Corvette brand! Impressive performances all around. Sorry, but I managed to let a Mustang get by me!

The award based on averages afforded no mistakes on any runs! Lap after lap consistently clean and fast. You deserved that one!
