Hey All,

I got the Mach 1 out again this past weekend at MSR Houston. For the first time, all of my equipment from a recording standpoint cooperated, so I FINALLY have a decent video to share. As some of you may know, this car was originally a base Mach 1 and is currently in the process of being converted to a HP car. Since the last time it was out, it now has the Mach 1 HP aero (splitter, spoiler/gurney, fender molding, mud flaps) and wheels, along with a Gloc R12/R10 brake pad setup. I opted to go with Michelin PS4S tires for now to have a street/rain option and I'm glad I did, because it poured all day on Saturday, but fortunately got some nice weather on Sunday (but still slick spots throughout the day). This combination of updates so far has pretty heavily refined the feel of the car from a stability aspect. If I can find the time to complete the install, I'll be taking the car out again in two weeks with the full Mach 1 HP suspension setup (springs, rear stability bar, and vorshlag adjustable camber plates).

I don't really open up the car until the tires came up to temp/pressure around lap 4 (minute 7 or so). This was my 4th weekend out, still lots to learn. Enjoy!
