Default NASA Spring Rumble at Summit Point - Sunday Race

Had a fun weekend of racing. Finished P3 on Saturday and P2 on Sunday. Had my first experience with standing starts that weekend - very nerve-racking.

Here's a video of my Sunday race. Ran a personal best lap of 1:27:9 that day.

Yep, standing starts are nerve racking. I really don't care for them at the club racing level. Too many things can go wrong and guys can get hurt and cars tore up. Anybody bust an axle? Miss a shift?

It was clean. We spoke after the race, and hugged / high-fived it out. Both our cars were barely scratched.
