I won't be seeing you at the Austin CoTA Trans Am race. I had a bit of a problem at the NASA Championship race this weekend at Thunderhill.

Go to minute 6:45 of the camera car to see what happened.

Yes, I am fine. Not sore or stiff. The safety equipment worked awesomely.

The car is very damaged thought... severe on the driver rear....

Captain Buddha 10-10-2017 04:01 PM

Other than the car - that is GREAT to hear!

Have you given some thought to a tube-frame? Cheaper/easier to fix - the whole car is a cage too.

Dave,

I saw your race in person. I was there racing in T2. You looked in control the entire time. Was there anytime you felt threatened?

Captain Buddha 10-15-2017 08:33 PM

My team mate Max Nufer and the Manufacturing News Camaro #13 is featured at the opener of all the Runoffs On Demand Videos - LOVE IT!!!

Not really. I had a really good car, so I felt that once I got in front (starting on the Pole helps) it would be hard for someone to get by me. I just kept the pace and preserved the tires.

What an awesome feeling seeing that checkered flag. Winning the Run Offs is always special, but doing so at Indy is special-er.

"airtime on cbs sports network gives the sports car club of america the opportunity to showcase its exciting brand of road racing on millions of televisions in homes across the nation," cobb said. "this year's event provided many different races from which to choose when constructing a broadcast schedule. The four classes that will air were selected based on the quality of competition, the ability to connect with a wide audience, and the desire to display a spectrum of scca road racing activities. Overall, i really believe the club has put its best foot forward for the audience at home."
