Default 2018 One Lap of America

The 2018 One Lap of America came here to MSR Cresson this morning. More than 70 cool cars doing 3 timed laps on each course, but lots of very tired drivers. Free entry to spectators

This event has been dominated by Nissan GT-R's the last few years.


Shaky Dog Racing from Edmond, OK just won overall in a 2015 Corvette. Great job Chris and Tina!!

One Lap overall is a serious accomplishment. Big congrats to Shaky Dog Racing!!! This is only the second time a Vette has won overall if I'm not mistaken. Last time was 2003 when Ron Adee in an MTI C5 Z06 won. Since then it has been dominated by all wheel drive Porsches and GTRs.

19" forgelines and the aero is from GSpeed right there at the track in Cresson.

I ran the 2007 One Lap in a '96 LT4. Didn't do all that well, but had a blast. Definitely a mental and physical challenge - a week straight in a car gets tiring. Might do it again someday....

I ran in 2007 in a Miata.


That was the year when ran into the snow storm on the way to Salt Lake and the tornados in Nebraska and Iowa.

Yes, you are correct, first time since 2003 that a non-AWD and/or American car has won overall.
