Didn't know this was out there. On episode #1, this is fantastic!

Cheers!

 

Middle of episode 2.

Awesome insights, the real deal....

 

I noticed in a couple shots, the cars are running factory LCAs with stock bushings, etc. I wonder why not aftermarket LCAs with spherical bearings or even solid bushing inserts on stock LCAs? Does more compliance increase reliability for endurance racing?

Actually now that I think about it, in Ep 2 or 3 where you have to change the LCA, I don't even recall seeing GT3 style alignment shims there. I guess its all done in the camber plates?

 

​​​​​​​We use GT3 control arms. In episode 1, you can see us do a quick change when 605 broke a ball joint. We left the shims in place and just replaced the outside portion of the LCA. I was super impressed with how quickly they did it. We were in the paddock for about 5 minutes! ​​​​​​​Brad

 

What happened to the last episode that was scheduled for FEB 4 at 6pm?

 

I think I saw it would be moved to later in Feb (2/25 at 6pm IIRC). Hopefully, someone else can confirm, as I can’t find my source.

Edit - Found it. Per Round 3 Racing’s Facebook page:

The SEASON FINALE is almost here!

The final episode of #TheDriveWithin will air Friday, February 25th at 6pm ET on @motortrendtv

For reasons that are unknown to me, Episode 7 was moved to February 25th. We were definitely bummed, as we're all excited to see the episode too. We see them for the first time when they air on TV.
