GOTO:Racing Wins USTCC Round 12 at Infineon Raceway
Scotts Valley CA - Team GOTO Racing again joined USTCC this past weekend at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma CA. The first qualification was in rainy and very slick conditions but put the DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX driven by Brian Lock in pole position! Brian said, “This car is awesome. It is very powerful and easy to drive. The DMS Struts provide absolute damping and keep all four wheels on the ground and putting all available power to the racecourse. The transmission, built by Santa Cruz Subaru, worked flawlessly throughout the weekend.
Sunday’s race started with the DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX on pole for the normal USTCC standing start. The Subaru was able to launch into the lead and beat the pack in to treacherous turn 2. The DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX maintained a healthy lead for 3 laps before a battle for the lead ensued with an out-of-class BMW and Acura RSX. The DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX maintained supremacy over both cars with superior handling and braking for many laps but ultimately the BMW’s far superior power lead to an easy pass going into turn 11. Brian’s attention now turned to the Acura. Having a superior power-to-weight ratio the Acura was making ground in the straight-away’s but even in the now totally dry conditions, the DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX’s all wheel drive combined with superior damping had it making up 4 to 5 car lengths in all of Infineon Raceway’s famous turns. At the checkered flag it was the DMS/Santa Cruz Subaru WRX taking the win.
Team GOTO Racing and Brian wish to thank Drummond Motor Sports, Subaru of Santa Cruz, Stop-Tech, Winchester Auto Scotts Valley and Aero-Turbine for their unwavering support and encouragement. Without these sponsors, racing at this level would not be possible. A special thanks to Santa Cruz Subaru for building a transmission that Brian called “awesome”.
About Team GOTO:Racing:
GOTO:Racing is a family owned racing team from Scotts Valley California. Currently racing in NASA’s Honda Challenge, Endurance and USTCC events.
GOTO:Racing is in it's 3rd year of road race competition in Northern California. Along with building the fastest Hondas in the region, GOTO:Racing is the main suppliers of roll cages and safety fabrication to the Norcal Honda Challenge Series. Now interested in moving upward from it's Grassroots origin, the team has set new goals for itself in Road Racing. "As a business, I’d like to see GOTO:Racing's work in more cars and series, and the quality of the work recognized. This is already starting to happen, but having a car in USTCC is still a great way to gain exposure." Says Co-Founder Chris Lock, "But in the end, we are racers, and our aspirations are more competitive then entrepreneurial. In the near future, I would like to continue the legacy Brian left, and dominate H4 in our new del Sol. I also want to continue our success at NASA's 25 Hour enduro, and someday land the overall win. Of course, we want Brian to win a USTCC Championship, and as for plans on the horizon, I see us hitting a Speed World Challenge race or two next year, provided we can get the WRX up to speed. If we continue to chance upon opportunity and exploit the talents of this team, who knows what we might accomplish."
