Default Watkins Glen Race Recap - AMT Motorsport

Hi Guys,

New blog post is up with details of our race last weekend at Watkins Glen. Happy to report the car FINALLY ran without a hiccup for the whole 2 days, which is a victory for me. Please follow the link below if you'd like to read about it in detail.

And if you're lazy, you can check out the Vlog we did while we were there. That video is attached. Please like and comment on YouTube (I think I'm supposed to ask people to do that). Any feedback is always appreciated. Thanks!

Very nice recap Mark and loved the VLog. Need more of those! I see me chasing you in the beginning of the vid. Great seeing you at the track and am very happy your car ran well! Great driving as always. I should have borrowed that Walmart jigsaw for my fenders...

Nice write up Mark! Almost like being there myself. Glad the car is no longer giving you trouble.

Hi Mark, Saw your recap already, surprised you get by with the AP Sprint kit being that fast. Any case, walked past your car a couple times just to say hi but nobody was around. I blew an oil line and no way to get it back together so left Saturday. I'm just in HPDE and too old/cheap to go wheel to wheel beyond TT, but always cheering on the C5 guys. Keep it up!

Sorry I missed you! Been there done that with the oil line after my dry sump shakedown run. Sorry you couldn’t get it back out there. And btw I have AP Pro5000r brakes in the front and the sprint kit in the back, although I had the Sprint in the front up until this season and never had a single issue. Can’t go wrong with AP.
