DwD 0659: Racing in Slower Cars is GREAT
DwD 0659: Racing in Slower Cars is GREAT
We often hear discussion about racing/driving on track in faster cars. Especially concerning is when the person talking is relatively new to high performance driving and/or racing. Ben and Bill discuss many of the advantages of racing in slower cars. A central point in racing and high performance driving is getting close to the limit of the vehicle on the surface at every moment. Having a more approachable limit is often more fun as the limit is the limit, no matter where it happens to be.
And if we left anything out, please let us know at GarageHeroesInTraining@gmail.com

GHiT 0652: Club Spec with Blair Deffenbaugh from the SCCA When we first started racing we were looking to build a car that we could race anywhere and everywhere. It did not exist.

The rest is up to you. We tal...
