>>FT-86 SpeedFactory One Lap of America Build<<
That's right everyone! FT-86 SpeedFactory will soon be coming to a race track near you! We will be competing in TireRack's One Lap of America competion this coming May and we have some car prep to be doing :thumbup: What is One Lap of America, you might ask???? Well, I'll let them tell you. "Nearly twenty-four hours a day driving with competition taking place as time trials on race tracks throughout the country. The event, as it always has been, is foremost one of endurance and vehicle preparation. No support crews are allowed. The tires that are used on the street are the same ones that are raced on (one set per team). Although scoring is based on performance at the race tracks, the vehicles and their drivers must survive over 5000 miles of driving interspersed with the finest meals available at gas station convenience stores. Personal hygeine takes a holiday and friendships (sometimes marriages) are stretched to the limits as these competitors battle fatigue, weather, traffic and the demands of high-speed competition with both unknown amateurs and seasoned professional drivers like Parnelli Jones, Price Cobb, John Buffum, Elliot Forbes Robinson and Hurley Haywood."

Cool! BUT I didn't see my local track on that list :(
|
Sounds like my kind of race
|
After seeing Drives coverage of it last year I really wanted to do it but It would require a lot of commitment from a stand alone civilian with no backing. Maybe next year :)
|
Im feeling that wheel/tire setup!
