Track fun at Road Atlanta SVRA
Last weekend I was at Road Atlanta for the SVRA season finals, Saturday I decided to do the touring laps for fun, they gave us 30 minutes, Burt Levy was sorting out the Lotus Esprit X180R that he was racing later and I ended up behind him, he kept slowing down and dropping back so he could get a run at speed to feel out the car, coming out of turn 7 down the backstretch I was getting up to 90mph before I would catch up to the pack, he would vanish in a wonderful roar and I would be left to figure out the lines of an unknown track but he kept doing it and it was great fun, he would also do it out of turn 5 but that's an uphill section and too short for me to get any speed, it was a fun 3 days of great vintage racing.
