Cumberland IceBreaker event
« on: May 06, 2012, 05:19:05 PM »
Nice event this weekend.  Only 50-70 participants due to conflicts with east coast events.  Here's my fastest Sunday run with the new wide angle video lens.  I think I got the uncontrollable power oversteer tamed with a little more rear toe. 

Now with even skinnier/smaller diameter tires on the Corvette for SCR ice-rink skating in 2013.

Randy, was that first gear...at Cumberland??  :o  Maybe, I could have missed a gear shift before the edit of the video or started in second, but judging by the speed it doesnt seem like its the top of 2nd. 

I mean I know the gearing in the C6's are like 62-64 in first but....do you feel that its the best way around the course?

Yes, if I have traction and can put down the power. It's also more fun!
