One Lap Update - We are out!

Well we did the best we could with our 577 SRT Coupe. one or both of our copper head gaskets failed today at VIR on the 3rd race of the day. so we lost coolant and the motor got hot and we had to shut it down.

so we are out of the 2006 One Lap. it was a lot of fun and a great way to learn about a brand new engine package.

many thanks to Brian Smith, Nick Arevalo and so many others who helped us this year.

we will be back again next year!

Better luck next year. What I like is that you were out testing this package before offering it to the consumer, so now you will go back and improve it and then when its more refined the rest of us lemmings can have at it

Dang, you guys were up there battling. Tough pill to swallow after a 1000 mile and 700 mile overnight transits. I feel your pain after completing 6 days of the 2003 event and having the power steering mounting bracket explode dropping us from 6th overall.
