Default A fast lap around Eagles Canyon Raceway

Understatement of the year! Here's some video of the new track record at ECR set by Anders Krohn. 1:39:993. Beat Da Matta's best ECR time (previous ECR record) by 4/10's.

No, Anders is a young gentleman out of Norway working with a team I will be doing some work for this year and 2010. His background is multiple Kart championships and more but obviously the kid can drive !

Funny thing about him, atleast for me, is that his nickname is "The Viking" .

He is VERY talented and will be driving for the Mundill race team this year in the open wheel Star Mazda all season and a ALMS P1 car for the last few races this year and next season.

If anyone is interested in any sponsorship opportunities with a very talented up and coming driver let me know.

Mundill? Dave Mundy's guys? Yeah, we got to watch him do that lap & a bunch of other fast ones in person on Friday at ECR.

Anders was in a Formula Mazda (Star Mazda), DeMatta was in a Daytona prototype.

Yes David Mundy, he and I go way back, I guess I am kinda a little to blame for his addiction although he would have been there anyway with his dads influence. I could tell you a lot about Anders but as usual I'll just let the results speak, watch the video and look out for this kid in the future, he will become a big name !

You know I had actually hoped to keep him quiet for a little while then send him out in my 944 to terrorize you Dave saying I had some kid driver but I really wasn't sure how good he was, etc etc etc.

I probably have more laps at ECR than anyone by at least double and that lap makes my head spin. This guy is on fire.
