if so, then I can see it being even faster with proper setup for the track.

For those of you who have not seen (or heard) an F1 car in person... GO! Flippin amazing display of physics going on there. I have been to plenty of IRL and CART races in my day, but nothing could prepare me for what I saw on Saturday with cyyeo.

Can't wait to see who brings one out next year!


Still wanted to hear the V10 tho

yup, it did. a 1m 07.587s on friday, 1m 06.596s on sat., and a 1m 06.309s on sunday. previous record was a 1m 07.722s. i wonder would a sub 1 minute be possible with good setup and good traction around.

I wonder if he tripped the dB sensor . . .

Anybody else find it amusing that they covered up the Mazda signs?

Then again . . . Mazda DOES own the track

Besides, they're getting back into Endurance racing.

The Ferrari F1 cars were there in 2004.
Somebody get some shots of the paddock, way better cars than in the parking lot. Here's my pics that I took for a friend who is building this car for rFactor... http://www.mikewaltz.net/stuff/312/
