I still have not had a chance to watch it, but here is a copy of the live feed, the H Prod race starts around the 3:00:00 mark: http://speedcasttv.com/#/races/362

Watched some of this race, you'll have to excuse me for referring to them as the Run Offs! All those years that they were held at Road Atlanta, that's what they came to be known as, because somebody always would Run Off from the rest of the field. Most of those guys finally turned Pro and left it to the true amateur road racers to compete on a relatively level playing field!

Finally got my video from the Runoffs uploaded. The start offers a good bit of carnage, and around the 8:45 mark I am playing bumper cars just shy of 120mph. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwoM8JjUgo4

Its weird to think that the CRX's muscle you on the straights. Your car could definitely use some more power to keep up.

And they are doing that while running at a higher weight. I have never seen the numbers for those cars, but I would guess they are 150-160hp.

But it was certainly less of a beat down this year, the Bestwick motor was the right choice, I went 1sec fast in qual with no other changes.

If you could find another 20hp I think you'd have a much easier time getting podium, you certainly don't have a problem keeping up in the corners or under braking.

I would be happy with 10hp, but would settle for 5hp. Its pretty close now, and long tracks like that are not where it is strong.
