This past weekend I went to comp school with NASA @ TWS. I am now a rookie in the Blitz group. I raced ST2 with my car which is set up to ST3 rules of last year. This meant I was slow for that group. No big deal just getting my feet wet. I did two races on Saturday and on Sunday I did the warm up and the qualifying season. However, my right front hub went and I was done for the day. Here some pictures courtesy of Paul Costa-
You can see the miss matched wheels. I had to use a R7 with about 20 heat cycles on it to try and race on Sunday.
If you look real close the guy with the headset on, next to the golf cart is Eric Foss in this pic.
Also, I had a right front tire failure. The wire that holds the tire bead came out of the tire. I know its weird, but it happened. Here's the pic-
Going to do brake upgrades this off season. Not that I really have an off season as I am schedule for HPDE events through December and NASA picks back up in January at MSRH. Having Vorshlag change out the OEM brakes with PowerBrakes. They are a new company to America and are out of South Africa. Vorshlag is a PowerBrake dealer.

Another upgrade is going to be AJ Hartman @ ajhartmanracing.com canards for the 2013-2014 Mustangs. You can check them out at his website if your interested. I am not affiliated with AJ Hartman racing in any way.
So I am looking forward to next year and racing with NASA Racing. I have six races left until I get my racing license, I have a provisional one now. Until then I need to keep my nose clean and not get in anyone's way. Also, I plan on training with Eric Foss next year. I already talked to him and emailed him for his schedule.
