Up first was mod buggy. I wanted to try out the new aluminum front bulkhead and brass kickup shim I installed. During practice I didn't notice too much of an increase in front grip. But during racing it did feel like there was an improvement.
I had a decent run in the main, finishing 2nd. But I really wanted the win, as most of the fast guys were at the Surf City race.
SDRC, Expert Stock Buggy, Saturday 9/3/16
Next it was back to stock to prep for our trip to OCRC on Sunday. It's been a few weeks since I've raced stock and I needed to get the feel back before heading up north.
Fred out qualified me! He would start 2nd and I was right behind him in 3rd. I pressured him into a mistake during the opening laps and took over 2nd where I finished.
Sportsman Stock Buggy, OC/RC Sunday 9/4/16
It was on now! OCRC home of the fastest racers on SoCal! I only had 3 runs to learn the SSC layout, but I was on pace with the locals, turning low 20 second laps.
I was the TQ after round 1! But I dropped down to 3rd in round 2 after making an early mistake during my run. I was still able to finish where I started, 3rd. The SSC layout was fun to drive. The left side had a nice flow to it. Hopefully we can make another trip north soon.
