BEAUTIFUL!! I see Brent aero magic on lots of cars...amazing laptimes everyone, Jack are the full results up anywhere? Slaving away in the office is not so bad seeing everyone push to the sub 2 minute mark

In terms of time attack times, I would imagine approaching a low 1:50's is pretty amazing right? I gotta check and see what the RWD times have been lately.

Conspicuously absent... maybe Patrick "pulled" them all?

Brent Bauman · 09-06-2009, 10:16 PM

Thanks Jack.

Peter, a Lotus will go under 1:50 before 2010, I promise. Not too many street legal rwd cars are in that league, most are high budget dedicated time attack cars.

Tyler McQuarrie, former (?) Russell instructor ran a 1:47.992 on this config in this year's Red Line Time Attack Unlimited class - good enough for 2nd place.
Buttonwillow Unlimited Class ReCap
Tyler McQuarrie,
but with an 500hp+ S2000 with composite bodywork.
Best time in Modified RWD class (which is were my Lotus would compete) was a 1:56.4 and 2nd best was 1:59.5.
Buttonwillow Modified Class ReCap

Next Red Line Time Attach is at Spring Mountain. I probably won't attend as too close to a CFRA event at Thunderhill. I'll probably also get in some practice at Infineon during that trip. Also not crazy about having to run threaded tire in Modified for Red Line Time Attach. BTW, cup car likely excluded from any class in Red Line. 2-11 definetly not allowed. They wouldn't give me a rulling if my S1 Sport 190 would be legal in Modified. Was contemplating an engine swap on that car, e.g., engine from RX-8 and sequential gear box - I suck at right foot braking.

In picture number 3 is the Red Exige S's roof scoop blocked off or am I seeing things?

Awesome pics I just found some new wallpaper

Good eye!
Water to air intercooler, so scoop is no longer functional. Carbon fiber roof without scoop coming.

Which cage? most of the ones in the cars are from Hypersport (cup car cages). We modified ours slightly, but still A Hypersport...

we don't have that far to go really. considering we're pulling these times on 105f days. I didn't even bother with taking the track temp! My shoes said F&%$'n hot!
