The Sweet Smell of Burning Rubber

We finally had our first day of practice! Rookie practice was scheduled for last Saturday, but the weather didn't cooperate and they had to cancel practice.



Most of practice was spent today tuning the clutch and carburetor settings. We had some issues with the engine running hot, but I think once we switch the fuel types and oil mixtures we should be ok. If anyone has carb advice, I'm all ears.
Alex looked fast and confident out on the track, and at the end of the day we had a Top 10 lap time! I could tell he was excited to be back in the driver seat. This season looks very promising already!


Were scheduled to have practice through Saturday, as long as the weather keeps up! Ill keep you updated on our progress throughout this week.
