Go getem!!

A special thank you to @Middletonmotorsports for providing our team with a new throttle body for the National Championship race in Utah. Middleton Motorsports has the best service and prices for OEM Ford parts!

This is cool but it feels like Gran Turismo 8 (yes I know that hasn't been made yet). The map in the upper right, the status of things in the lower section, and the time on the lower right. As I said its cool but weird at the same time.

Based on where the safety crew is spraying the water, it seems like the brakes may have caught on fire.

Oh oh

Aside from the safety requirements, what modifications do you have from stock?(Performance Modifications)?

Now I understand why you needed a new suspension

Maybe do a video on cost of repairs

OOOOOoooooo that was close to bad lolol. Nice save..

What track is this

Lose the music

Jeff @indyracetireplus is one of the best tire guys in the country. All the racers @direvenasa and @nasagreatlakes are lucky to have his services on site at each event.

One thing that stands out is Baucom's gear selection and shift points. He is driving in "manual" mode, and you can see him trying different gears and shift points as he enters and exits corners, including short-shifting out of the slower corners (5-6 & 12-13) to leverage engine torque.

The fact that Baucom is probably driving at 85% because he is in one of his customers’ cars, not being able to enter the front straight at speed due to a pass in turn 18, and needing to pass three other cars during the lap, including one rather slow car in turns 9-10, makes one realize the incredible talent of pro drivers.

Mans building his own GTD 💪

Stay clear of 4 inches of snow. I pulled 2 out last year while plowing.

Yes, you read that correctly. A modern GT500 Mustang race car on 18” tires! Contact www.BaucomMotorsports.com to learn how to take your GT500 to an 18” platform.

That hand position...

We look forward to debuting this GT4 brake kit this weekend at the NASA Great Lakes 2024 Championship Round 5 race at PittRace. Come on out and see the www.MAPDataSystems.com GT500 race car and these incredible brakes!

We also considered running the AP Racing Radi-cal front kit which would enable an 18" wheel/tire platform. We run this brake kit on our #86 GT350 Mustang race car and are very happy with it. However, the Radi-cal brakes and rotors are just too small and light weight to dissipate all the heat generated by the weight and speed of a GT500.

Maybe we should have chosen “I’m Alright” by Kenny Loggins as the theme music?

That was so hard to watch. Way way too much chicken foot driving 🤦‍♂️👎

The down shift growl is just perfect

Clean driving. Can you move your seat forward at all? It really looks like your arms are hitting full extension during turns, you would have a lot more control if you can keep your elbows bent.

Thank you @GenX_Racing for your help. You were 100% correct with your diagnosis.

You weren't the firs to go off there and you wont be the last lol. Trying to hang with Robin got you on that first little outing. Your second one is the same one that gets me. I never get that corner right.. Nice safe reaction and you got back on safe.. No harm no foul, nice driving.

Dangg... Making them CMC cars look like they were in reverse lololol

The 1:39.9 lap included very bad turns 1-2, very good turns 5-6, and very mediocre turns 7-11. Accordingly, we think we left a couple of seconds out on the track. Nonetheless, the team was happy to clock a 1:39, which was one of our goals for the weekend.

Can I have back my 15 minutes 😢

The grass cutting incidents are at 8:05 and 14:20.

We did not charge the racetrack for lawn care over the weekend. ✂

Looking awesome. Cant wait to run with you again this year

Yes, the hood is so strong that we are running the stock hood strut.

And yes, the entire field was way too strung out. The root cause was likely that we were told that all restarts would be at the stand in the front stretch, so everyone was thinking we had almost an entire lap to collect before the restart.

I agree with you. A global green flag for a restart does not override a local yellow flag. This was clearly illegal passing under yellow.

I would say this about the flags. As Robin always told us, the flags are the flags are the flags. The green flag did not override the yellow flag in turn 2. After turn two he was free to pass (assuming no yellow at start finish), or had there been no flag in turn two he would have been free to go. His spotter may have seen a green and assumed the track workers kept up, but you still cant pass if you have a yellow on display between you and that green. But its a good lesson to learn from. I know in Ozarks i have gotten a spotter green flag before making the final turn on a long field, you still have a flag between you and the start finish flag. I mean how did this driver know there wasn't a wreck out of turn 2 where he was? the turn one flag put you in lock down until you could confirm no flag at 2. Plus you can tell they saw the flag as they entered 2. They backed off a bit until he could confirm no yellow at start finish lol. Spotter may have given you good info on start finish, but you have to make the call where you are on track. I agree the term "Or" should be removed from the CCR. But your 19.3.1 and 20.13.1 cover your answer, while green is global, the yellow was local and both can exist and each be right. I would like to point out that your field was strung out way to much for a restart. Was there a reason for that? Restarts should be a tight field, single file. The rest of 19.3.6 "Drivers are NOT required to significantly slow their vehicles; however, they should be prepared to encounter a “local Yellow Flag” situation and/or a Pace Car (or a very slow-moving pack behind the Pace Car)". Yellow flags don't mean to slow down to pit lane speeds, they say back off the pace until you have complete control and can avoid anything, that's still a good pace through those fast sections of the track. Unless you had a pace car, then they set the speed. a bunched up field would help eliminate a situation like this as well. You all would have been through turn 2 as the leaders were getting the green. or at least a lot closer. Just my 2 cents..

To make this matter even more confusing, at the racer’s meeting that morning, the race director said that all restarts would take place at the finish line on the front stretch, not the starting line on the back stretch (where this restart took place).

Looking good out there. That ole Camaro looked pretty fast as well.

Interestingly, the Dark Horses were all entered into the "unlimited" classes (TTU or STU) because none of them had time to get an official dyno to qualify them for a more appropriate race group such as ST2/ST3 or TT2/TT3.

At that time, the car weighed-in at a portly 4,161 pounds (race weight). We will provide updates on the car's weight as the remainder of the build continues. Our target is 3,800 pounds (race weight) which is going to be quite challenging.

We always enjoy the trip to the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course with our @ProPride3P trailer hitch.

Nature ❤

Wtf did i just watch

Buddy. You do realize a CMC car makes about 260 wheel. You should be MUCH faster.

COOL video ❤🧊

Why such high hand placement just feel like if you get into a bit of oversteer it’s going to be much harder to correct

What do you think of the view from the VBOX camera facing out the rear bumper?
