Was this your first Silverstate?

What's up with your high trap speed? Or is your car a time machine too?
Cant hardly wait for some downtime to watch the videos.

Very impressive outing (driver and car) !!!

p.s. We gotta get you a 1LE merit badge (patch)

Thanks,i don't know what happened in the trap. I didn't even no i went so slow...i mean 114 :( if you look at the results for last Sept.i went through there at 139.4.No i wasn't fastest i came in 5th.The guy in the yellow camaro was in a ZL1. I know i would of done better if my stop watch hadn't malfunctioned.I can guaranty i will have two stop watches going in Sept.

I meant to write that you were the fastest Camaro in your class and all other classes.

You should just get rid of your car.... you really don't have any fun with it.

charlie46 · 05-24-2013, 12:29 PM

CORNERSPEED92 , Thanks for posting the videos and pics of the silver state race its incredible what the 1LE can do in your hands. The video and pics made my week!

cornerspeed92 · 05-24-2013, 01:08 PM

Glad you guys like

and no Tram im not getting rid of it

Southern Comfort · 05-30-2013, 10:57 AM

I am just now getting a chance to watch the videos. Amazing!

Stock tires right? What tire pressures did you start with and then see max on the course?

Racerdave24 · 05-30-2013, 11:33 AM

Not to hijack this thread on my first post, but I think I saw you Southern Comfort on 400 South this morning.

Could that have been you?

ABM or 1LE? My wife has the ABM out and about today. If 1LE, not today but there's another within 15 miles of there.

Join us locals on the Atlanta Lounge thread and post up what you go going

Yes our stock supercar tires.I started at 32 and saw 34 during the race,thought they would be a little higher,but not the case.Glad you liked the videos,so are you running in Sept?

Nitrogen maybe? It's supposed to be more stable than air. Someone mentioned like 44 for speeds in excess of 100mph.
Probably would have gotten better mpg

Yeah, I am putting this on my bucket list for sure. You make it look easy. But I need some basic training to prepare for this one. Maybe some instruction on a track. Looks like a 4400 mile r/t from here.

cornerspeed92 · 05-30-2013, 01:45 PM

Believe me you wont be the only person from Georgia,there are a couple guys who fly in from Sweden,they rent a Lamborghini out of Newport beach Calif.
I got 13.9 mpg for the entire 90 mile event.No worries on the basic instruction they make newbies

take little racer school at Las Vegas speedway.If you need any info let me know.You dont need anything special(except a 2005-2010 SA) helmet for this event,unless on your 2nd time you run the grand touring class.

It was a 1LE just like the one in your signature. I'll check out the other lounge.

Thanks

I know this is over a year old, but soooo awesome. Is this on public roads or how does it work? (As far as I know here in Alberta theres only track races)
