December 16, 2008: 25 Hours of Thunderhill Writeup

What an amazing event, and what an amazing result!  Congratulations to Prototype Development Group for an amazing effort and a well-deserved result!!  Read all about it here.


November 18, 2008: Goals Section Added

Because I am a firm believer in the importance of goals, I added a page here that publicizes the goals we set for our racing efforts.  Want to know where I'm going?  This is where I'll tell you my thoughts! Click here.


November 3, 2008: For Sale Section Added

In the market for a shiny new car or some parts for your car?  I've added a small For Sale section where I will post up things I have for sale, or that friends of mine have for sale.


November 1, 2008: New Look For The Race Car!!

Well, the color scheme of the updated website isn't purely coincidence, it happens to now match the car too!  After my brush with the wall at Road Atlanta in August, we knew we needed to have the front bumper cover and one front fender repainted.  Rather than trying (likely in vain) to match the red that the rest of the car is painted, we opted to add silver to make it a two-tone car and we're very happy with the results!  Check out the pictures here and let us know what you think.


September 27, 2008: Website Updated

Welcome to the new look of VetteRacer.net!  Since I had a minor surgery Thursday morning, I'm more-or-less couch-bound for a few days.  I'm not the kind of guy who can sit around and watch TV all day, so I thought I'd do something constructive and get the website redesigned a little bit.  Hope you enjoy the site!

 

It will take me some time to get all the content converted from the old site to the new one, so in the meantime, or for those of you who just enjoy a challenge, you can still read the old site here.


September 26, 2008: 25 Hours Of Thunderhill Announcement

As some of you are aware, I have been offered an opportunity to compete this year in the longest on-road endurance race IN THE WORLD - the 25 Hours of Thunderhill presented by The United States Air Force.

 

This grueling test of man and machine has rapidly grown to become one of the premiere racing events in the United States since it was first run in 2002.  In 2007, over 70 cars started the race and 2008 promises to be just as fierce of a competition!

 

I will be one of 4 drivers in the Prototype Development Group GTM-R.  This custom-built racing machine hit the track for the first time only hours before the 2007 25-hour race and now has a full year of development and testing under it.  The car was very fast last year, but suffered from some mechanical issues which cost hours in the pits during the race.  With a load of new parts, new sponsors, and some great engineering work, the car promises to be not only faster this year - but reliable as well.

 

I will get some preview information together and posted before the race and of course have a full writeup, videos, pictures, etc. afterwards!
