NASA Race 1 @ CotA July 2021

The first race of the NASA weekend at CotA July 2021.
The first 4 laps are kinda entertaining as I reel in the big motor folks that jump me at the start.

Nice!! Was that a "point by" @ 9:32? I didn't think point by's were given in races, only HPDE type stuff.

Also, what are the specs on your mini? model, hp, etc. I mean, I see what you have in your sig, but it doesn't specify any of those details

The race group at CotA can be very large - I think it was close to 60 cars. So there were about 10 different classes racing at the same time - like WEC. So, just like WEC when a "out of class" car catches you, in order to not spoil their race (or yours) you should pick a good sport to point them by that doesn't slow either of you down more than necessary.

I posted the latest Dyno here: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ml#post4593221

The car is at the correct power to weight for GTS2
