I'm hoping in between waiting for glue to dry on the RSR Porsche tonight to make more progress on the "summary" of the race - but there was definitely some interesting twists in qualifying verses racing! A couple of the cars were NOTABLY easier to hold closer to the limit than others, moving what looked to be "slower" cars up the finishing field.
It will be interesting to see how the dynamics change when the other four lanes are run as the "tight" corners occur and notably different parts of the track and are different radii than the tight areas on the first four lanes.
I will say, that the track owner and a number of our local racers were pretty impressed with our little field of Mavericks! I heard lots of positive comments and I expect to see a couple of them stop in to check out the forum as well. :)
(not to mention it has spurred discussion about the creation of a new class of racing at the track using rules very similar to the Mav Proxy rules - which should prove to be very interesting if it takes off!)
I am SO glad hosting was a REQUIREMENT of participating in this proxy! Even though it was a bit of a learning curve for Aronn and I (and we are still working on a work around for the uStream) - we and those that helped us, had a lot of fun running the field and getting to see everyone's creation up close!
Looking forward to Aronn's leg next week! :)
