CFOS CR Last Hurrah?

[dcarusillo]

Well, not sure if this was the last tango at Fontana. Sure sounds like it...
They say nothing lasts forever, a cold beer has only 12 ounces, a good truck maybe 300 thousand...
Hell, remember when CFOS was a San Diego Event!??!

Finally sorted out the cooling and tuning issues with the car. It only took me 9 months. Guess I know how pregnancy feels now?
Really good to see most of the crew show up. Kinda felt like a reunion

If you are bored, an edited link for one of the Club Races is attached. Clip is a bit long, but the race was 45 min.
Synopsis: good qualifying, bad (safe) start and worked to climb back to high ground.....

Thanks for sharing. Very enjoyable Dan

Interesting stuff, for sure. Thanks for sharing. Two questions: 1) at about what mph did you max out after the not-so-straight main straight, and continuing thru turns 1 and 2? 2) at about what speed were you hitting when passing under the bridge on the back straight?

FYI to All: the scuttlebutt at Fontana on the 11th (was there with Fast Toys)?? The Speedway tear-down/replacement might not go thru as planned. Issue = millions of cubic yards of contaminated earth, the mitigation for which could make re-development impractical in the near/medium term. Perhaps just wishful thinking???

Glad, you guys enjoyed my over sharing!

Well, I tried to include data tracing images....but I got exasperated and gave up
This forum site reminds me of a Fortran programming class I took, when we had to use punch cards to enter lines of code!

Short answers: Top speed entering Turn 1 Mid 140's mph. Best was 145.9. On a good run thru 1 and 2, velocity is level at 139/140 mph.
Hadn't run there in awhile and would have liked to fiddled around more with running higher in the oval. But with the faster traffic during the race, lower is probably more predictable. Back straight coming out of the P-head, average top velocity low 120's. Quali trim I ran a 1:48.xx, race pace 1.49.xx.

So, a question for the Digitori? How can this forum be updated, making it more seamless for users to include additional data? A more robust forum experience would increase user quality and the quantity of users.
