Ridge Official Track Record 1:31 at Global Time Attack 2023
YES! We set the fastest overall lap ever recognized by the Ridge Motorsports Park at 1:31.421 at the 2023 Global Time Attack event at the Ridge. Looking at the Motec data across my sessions, it is apparent there is a good improvement to be had if I can get all my best segments into one lap. This is a "good" lap but definitely not a great one. 1:30 next year!

Back to ORP for a "rematch" after our May attempt. We ran a 1:38.8 last time, which I believed to be a lap record here, but figured there was a bit more in it. After a series of back to back 37s, I ran three cool downs and went for it - and couldn't believe it when I saw a 1:36.0.

Our second day at the Ridge and first time running the chicane layout. With our car, the data tells us the chicane adds approximately 4.4 seconds over the straight through configuration. That is intuitive as most cars estimate 5-6 seconds but we are relatively slow in a straight line and fast in the chicane corner, so we are less affected by the chicane overall than a faster heavier car.

    Incredible to see something with downforce around this circuit. Very cool. I’m dying to see someone hotlap this circuit in something like an LMP2 prototype, or an Indycar. At this point, I’d settle for an F3 car or Indy Lights car lol. It seems like a completely different circuit with a proper race car and downforce. Flat out section, heavy braking, flat out, heavy braking. When I watch an onboard of a super car, or even like a Porsche Cup car, the circuit seems quite cramped, one corner after the next, no massive braking zones. This though, this looks like you could actually race these around this circuit….which is good news for the future hopefully 🤞lol
