ICSCC Pacific Raceways May 2011 ST Race
Racing with Mike McAleenan for the lead in the ST (Sport Touring) class. Unfortunately the camera shuts off halfway thru the race. The battle continues until the end and I beat him to the finish line by .022 seconds (according to timing and scoring). It was a matter of feet.
My best lap time in the race was a 1:31.9.
The car is a Porsche 968 with a 2.5 liter turbo engine. Race weight of 2950 lbs and 290 rwhp (ST has a 10:1 power to weight limit).
See the end of the race from Mike's car here:
