That's an awesome track. The height difference at the corkscrew is hard to convey w/o being there in person. Enjoy

Thanks agree I've walked to the top many times.
First time at Laguna Seca with this car, gearing should be close.
Been on track a few times with other cars.

Ok got 45 gallons of VP 110 that should get the 5 through 4 sessions on Laguna Seca.
The #5 averaged 5 mpg last race, maybe a little better mpg at Laguna Seca if it's less full throttle than Big Willow.
Also got a very nice Maglock magnetic helmet blower connection.
Installed 2 new go pro cameras powered from the car battery and with a hard wired on off switch on the dash.
This should resolve some of my go pro and helmet blower issues.

Perfect car is ready and in the trailer a week before the race.

Surprised to see this old Ford and the 10 will be racing together.
Hope to get some good video of it.

Dennis Gray a race photographer was in T9 waiting for cars in the mist and soft light.
That's where he got this photo of the 5.
