Raven Black GR86 Weekend Carver & Track Toy

Weekend bagel runs for the kids has never been this fun! I also got this car to go to Lime Rock AutoX. Today was my first day at exactly 1000 miles.

I came in last but whatever! I had a blast getting the car sideways and working on my car control. With the base tires I was never able to get them to behave predictably. At times I was able to get the car perfect but others I felt the tires just falling off. I tried burning up my tires but they look brand new still Tire pressures and oil temps skyrocketed- Oil rose up to 241 but would come down quickly to 215-220. On a cool down lap the oil will drop to 199-205. Sorry for the quality pics- I have an old phone. I should upgrade.

Lime Rock is such an amazing place. The instructors were super cool and knowledgeable. The FCP Proven Grounds is very good. Can't wait for my next AutoX session.
