Congrats Myron! That was an impressive drive and the TC7.2 was totally hooked up. I should have taken a picture of your face while you were still up on the stand after the win. Well deserved sir!

Checking back in on the Ford GT body - specifically the wing.

- Side dams are more than 10 mm above the wing - thought that was illegal per the updated rules
- Wing is very thin and floppy - is this a bug or a feature

Be careful to align the mounting holes well or it will twist when you tighten down the screws.

Hot 21.5 motor

My Muchmore Fleta zx v2 21.5 is like a lightning bolt. It's definitely a RPM motor, so I have to gear accordingly to get some added torque out of it.

it's a shame to, the Raikiri is killer but of Tamiya's own design and not a production car. I too like the Raikiri for TCS races as do many GT-1 and GT-2 racers. The NSX 2007 and 2005 are popular as well.

Hello all...been running usgt for about 3 months and loving it. I seem to get the ring of death on my usgt tires after one race weekend.

Wondering:

How many race weekends out of USGT tires?
What camber you guys typically run with them?
Do you guys rotate your tires?
