Apologies for slightly crap rez...it looked great before I converted it to You Tube specs.

I love my little exclamation at the end. "Oh!"

I wish that we had a chance to take the SR27 to a track before the event, so we could of found our problems earlier. now that we upgraded the radiator, added a oil cooler, and a bigger electric fan, we are good to go. Run-n-gun, her we come.

Who was fastest? I saw that the stock Nobles were hitting 153 mph & the race prepped Noble says he was hitting 168MPH, at the end of one of the straights.

Mike-The green Noble that was at the UTCC had a few issues and didn't run that fast in all the sessions. Fastest by a few seconds was Tommy Archer's race prepped Viper. this is the one that is longer and wider than the street version...not a built up street car (like the sliver one John M. passes at the end of the video).

After Archer's red viper, it looked like a Red Evo, Silver Mosler, and Greenish 300ZX were leading the pack, along with John M. in the Yellow Stalker.

My car would be fast if Tommy Archer were driving it:).

I mentioned to a few people that I thought it was odd to have a factory driver in a factory car...seemed out of place/unfair. At least Chip Herr was driving his Audi S4 street car (though I heard he switched to an S4 racer for the last session)

I mean, hell, Audi could send Tom Kristenen in an R10 and I'm sure he'd spank Tommy Archer's Viper.

A few people said in reply "If you were GRM/Hankook and a pro driver said he wanted to come to your event, would you turn him down?"
