In-car from club race at Road America
Hi all,
At the encouragement of several here, I am giving this it's own post.
The short synopsis is it's a long clip showing a couple of guys having a lot of fun.
Hope you enjoy.

I had the chance to watch the race as an spectator at Road America from turn 5. But had no idea what was going on the track.
This proves again why Tim McKenzie is my hero. Two wide in turn 1, and 2 passes on the outside of the carrousel?!? Really??? The most talented driver I have had a chance to race against with equal equipment...
And please, without any discredit to Mark White, who by the little I can tell, drove the hell of a race and without any major mistakes. I am sure that race will stick to their memories for a long time…. I am jealous.
An example of two true gentleman driving like animals and going for all there is out there.
Phenomenal video editing as well.

Thanks for all the kind words, gentlemen!
@38D - The diverter valve is a typical billet aftermarket unit. The off-boost noise is enhanced in the interior because we have the intake filters mounted on the cockpit side of the rear fire wall.
@Fapena - I agree 100% in Tim's ability to wheel a car and have tremendous respect for him. The seeds for this race were planted a couple of years ago when he and I were questioning how much fun we were having racing in various pro series. After that conversation, I made an effort to re-involve my shop with PCA and have had a great time racing with old and new friends.
After watching video, it dawned on me that it really illustrated what we wanted to achieve.... A couple of guys having a whole lot of fun with zero frustration! Although our cars turn similar lap times while making speed in completely different parts of the track, we succeeded in cleanly working each other over without slowing the other guy down.

Great stuff!
Mark gave me a tutorial around R.A. a few years ago - nice to see those tips in action! I'm taking notes for going up there in a couple of weeks!
