Subject: Re: Autox driver takes out $1500 of timing equipment by biggrizzly on 2010/8/13 17:48:07 At our last AX event in July, during the very last run of the last heat of the day, the best driver on the course up until that time came in hot to the stop box and run over the cones which in turn sent the lights for a tumble. It did hold us up a good while in the heat of the afternoon, but oh well it was fun watching him come in!! Even though we change our course slightly between events, it is known as a tight course and designed to slow down the cars, especially on the back half of the course just prior to coming into the stop box. However, these cars have so much power now its nothing for a Z06 to slow for a sharp "slowdown" gate and then hit the gas and be back up to 50-60mph in a blink. |
