    Keep the ACR or buy a ACR X

    Car ran fine, driver needs work. Road Atlanta is a track I've never felt comfortable at in the past, and this past weekend was no different. I've reviewed my in-car and compared to a few other drivers and I THINK I know what I need to do to improve...maybe.

    Keep the ACR or buy a ACR X

    This conversation came to mind this past Saturday evening... I was testing my new ACRX at Road Atlanta this weekend. Brad Daugherty, former Tar Heel and Cleveland Cavalier was there. He's a seven foot tall racing enthusiast. Loves Richard Petty, that's why he wore #43 when he played ball. So...

    Viper gala in New York

    I spoke with some people...William is spot on. Black Tie is overboard; my bad. Rumor has it that Mr. Gilles doesn't own a tie... But the conversation is not inappropriate. Remember, we are representing the VCA, so we don't want to look like slobs.

    Viper gala in New York

    Oh god, I love the comments on this subject! LOL To clarify, the person I "consulted" about what to wear happens to live in New York and is a fellow racer. We were talking about things related to racing so I asked him to ask his girlfriend. I don't own Armani suits...I'm too cheap. :) But...

    Viper gala in New York

    I asked around about this...I have friends in NYC that are in the fashion industry. "No" to black tie (although I am prepared); the person I spoke with told me "NY Chic" is suit and tie. I am not sure about this, let me check around some more. (you can make fun of me all you want, but I do like...

    Ok, here's another good one: 2007 Summit Point. This was the first time I raced the T1 Viper after SCCA really slowed the cars down after the 2006 Run Offs. The Summit Point track record was set in 2006 by Andrew Aquilante in a Viper, but when I returned one year later, my Viper weighted 130 lbs...

    I not only walked away from it, but went home and cut the grass. A buddy of mine called and asked how I was doing, and I told him I just finished the lawn. He thought I was crazy!

    OK, here's one where the end result is a little more in my favor: I May of 2006, while waiting delivery of my first Viper race car, the builder of it loaned me a C5 Corvette to race. His son entered the same event in the car that won the 2005 SCCA Natioanl Championship. I out-qualified him by...

    OK, this is the one that has me "most famous" (or infamous). This video is also the one youtube video of Nelson Ledges that gets the most views excepting for one showing two girls in bikinis jumping into the lake! This is the first "hot" lap of qualifying for a race in May 2008. I was wanting...

    It's the middle of February, and despite the mild winter we are experiencing, I have a case of cabin fever. So I went and revisited my own in-car camera videos from years back to kill some time. I thought I would share my entertainment with my VCA brethren. I have made quite a name for myself...

    Michelin Viper Cup Slicks (use)

    I am looking for 2 sets of used Michlin Viper Cup slicks. I already have two brand new sets at the shop, but it is foolish to sue these up in the first few session of shaking down the car. Contact me at [email protected]. Thank you in advance.

    Enclosed trailer questions 24' Featherlite, securing spare tires, generator location?

    Re: Enclosed trailer questions 24' Featherlite, securing spare tires, generator locat I assume the "19' awning" is a "roll out" version; if so, I think you will be dissatisfied with it. To me, those type don't extend far enough from the trailer to give significant shelter. That's why I sued...

    Re: Enclosed trailer questions 24' Featherlite, securing spare tires, generator locat Race ramps will work fine. Like I said, put two columns of "vertical" e-track on each wall, and span some shoring beams across, wide enough to store tire/wheel assemblies. Maybe position it so the car hood...
