  • I started this race 2nd but ended up getting punted accidentally in the first lap and fell back to around 30th but was able to make it back up to 9th in part because so many cars went off track in this race. The track was a little slick and the grass was wet so it was a little hairy but still not so many people should have been wrecking or spinning out. Lots of action for sure in the video. This was my first race at VIR and an SCCA Majors event so I felt pretty good about how it went. We edited out about 4 minutes of full course yellow time.

    Good outing as usual. Sounded like a pretty evil gearbox gave you a hard time. Good stuff, Connor, keep it up.

    Those cars spinning on the track looks so much scarier than karting crashes. Good race, thakns for sharing

    At 0:50 he knows youre there, 97 driver races in IMSA after all, don’t need to check up to fall in line just let him beat u around the outside into the turn by a fender... Pardus kinda parked it in 3 lol
    Anyways, it was the right decision but kinda wrong unexpected method
    6:56 I saw Alan spin across the track like that down the road Atlanta back straight in 2019 HST
    7:29 what is happening with all the spins-
    12:03 not again lol
    12:29 oh my-
    14:42 nice pass, I like the braking sound
    16:23 was a bit aggressive but I respect the send- as I sent it at the same spot a few laps later 🤣
    18:08 ok that was cool
    18:47 apologies for the rejoin like that
    Nice driving back through the field, beat me :)
    Looking forward to Spec MX-5 with you, it’s a different beast

    Good grief. Glad I wasn't there lol. Cars were all over the place. Even Cefalo got sent into a tire wall....

    Cool graphics and nice recovery after a pretty chaotic race

      Every mazda race is kinda chaotic! Yet super satisfying to drive or watch!

    Nice race! It looks like your trans didn’t want to go into 4th a few times...

    Nice drive! You should probably slow your shifts down a bit though. You are going to be putting in a new trans every weekend...

      For sure! I’m only 14 years old, so shifting is one of my down sides. It’ll take time but I’ll try!

      @@connorzilisch5696 late comment but you’re good to shift as fast as you can as long as you get that left foot down all the way on the clutch so you don’t grind the gear
