2010 Speed Ventures S2000 Challenge Race #1

2010-02-05T18:20:00.000-08:00

Very first event of the new year, great weather. Alignment was way off, push understeer very bad. Tires are dead, can't get them warmed up til 3rd or 4th lap every session, even after warmed up, still no grip at all, my personal Federal 595RS grip better than those. clutch/tranny problem, smooth downshift is nearly impossible for the whole weekend, it made me feel so stupid, long story "( .

Although our car didn't get well prepared, we still did 1:59.7 which is my new personal best. We have made a new front splitter, plywood with fiberglass on top, and custom mounts. Compare with out old one, it's wider, stronger, water proof, and only 2 lbs heavier. Beside some part was little to low, it was working great.

We are still in testing for those Powerflex bushings, this is the 4th weekend since we have them put on, and first time out here in Buttonwillow. So far everything is still as same as when we put them on, no wear and tears(their grease are very good), no noise. I can tell the different during turn 3 to turn 6, smoother rotating and weight transfer, very impressive.

Videos and pictures, sorry I don't have video of the s2000 challenge time trail session, my mistake forgot to turn off the camcorder after 3rd session, and it went out of battery.

Jun 27-28 NASA TT @ Infineon

2009-07-06T00:30:00.000-07:00

#9 and #10 races of this year.

It was a crazy HOT weekend, I'v never been in Infineon like this hot ever. Almost 110 degree early afternoon, and even worse we didn't bring enough water on Saturday, was a tough day for all our driver and crews.

On Saturday we did great on getting our new alignment setup running right, with passenger in first 3 session we still able to beat our previous best lap time of 1:56. And we left last session as time attack session, finished with 1:53.7, which is about 1 second faster then what we expected.

Sunday was little better, still very hot, but more windy than Saturday, and yes we brought a lot of water and ice today. We had few guests from mitbbs.com, so we had to take them for a rid in first 3 session, and again we left our last session for time attack. After 3rd session we were placed 3rd, about a full second slower than 1st, some of our crews was about to give up because of the heat. But we did even better than yesterday, 1:53 flat and no overheating problem at all, unlike most other cars in TT.

Very impressive with our new oil cooling system, it well managed our water and oil temperatures below 100 Celsius under extreme condition, looking forward for our Augest Buttonwillow event.

Special thanks for our sponsors:
SAFERACER.com for racing gears
CharlesNgRacing.com for driving instruction.
