OG Hyperdrive at Summit Point

[rufus]

Hey Tom

It was my pleasure to take you out for a leisurely tour of the track We're planning to do it again sometime in the next month or two, so hopefully you can make it back down for some more fun. If you want to get some people from the club together and make a little mini-meet out of it, we could certainly arrange passenger seat time for all.

We raced the ReVolvolution Racing Volvo 850 on Shenandoah this weekend in the 24 Hours of LeMons race and finally finished, after blowing up engines there for the last two years (we are 2-0 AWAY from Summit Point, now 1-2 AT Summit Point). We completely babied the car yesterday in the interest of keeping it alive, but today decided to just wail on it and picked up about 20 places to finish 54th out of 120+. Having seen the track with six cars on it, I'll leave it to your imagination to picture it with 120 something. The wrecker and ambulances were busy, but no serious injuries and a whole lot of fun.

If anyone from the SVX community is interested in trying out a track day sometime but doesn't know where to start, shoot me an email at mike@mikewirt.com and I'll get you pointed in the right direction. I instruct with pretty much every club/group out there at this point, and would love to help you get hooked on performance driving.

-Mike
