GST Motorsports sets new track record at Redline Time Attack finales!

GST Motorsports takes 1st overall and breaks the track record at Redline Time Attack Auto Club Speedway, CA




Auto Club Speedway – Fontana, CA, 11/15/10 – The GST Motorsports Time Attack Racing Team secured first place Super Modified AWD and first place overall with a record breaking lap of 1:35.548 on our first hot lap of the event.

"The GST team and all their technical partners have been outstanding this year, helping me make the most of this car on track. The L has come a long way during the 2010 season and we look forward to seeing her mature into the 2011 season" said Jeff Westphal, driver of the GST Time Attack Subaru L.

Mike Warfield, owner and engine tuner of GST Motorsports, had this to say about the team’s event; “It’s been a long and challenging season in which the team and our various partners have been nothing but phenomenal, We knew coming into this event on the back of pushing everything we could through the car only a handful of days ago we would only be able to push the car so hard so to be able to break the track record with the car’s first hot lap is a real testament to the driving talents of Jeff.” Continued Warfield

GST Motorsports would like to thank their sponsors for their continued support: Hankook Tires, Guard Transmissions, Cosworth, AFI Turbo, Wheeldude.com, JE Pistons, BC, ACT Clutches, Kognition Designs and DCCDPro.

Next up for the GST Motorsports team is testing – CA 12/01/10.
