1 Event, 2 Podiums - Redline Time Attack Chicago!

Posted on June 17, 2010 at 12:17 PM

 

Our Time Attack partners www.amstuning.com did one hell of a job prepping the cars and working on them all weekend.

 

First off we got another podium on our steet tire car!!


Unfortunately there was a huge wreck in our run group and we only got 1 clean lap in on our timed session Then it proceeded to monsoon and all other timed sessions were ended for the day. This prevented us to really run the car as we planned to up the boost and lay down the hammer. We ended up in 3rd place right behind the Cobb STI.


 

 

Our Modified car was plagued with problems all day long due to a faulty wastegate and manifold. The good ole guys at AMS Chicago helped tremendously with the car and it was fixed by the Super Session Lap Battle. We barely made it to the grid in time and rolled in at the last minute just as the cars were about to roll out! We were at the back of the pack and by the second lap we were at the front of the pack and won the race!

 

Whit Staples did one hell of a Job in the rain and his vast wheel to wheel racing experience really shined thru here! It should be noted that he went out on brand new tires that were not even scrubbed in!! Check out the video of this epic battle!!

 

Anyways on to the pics!
