Title: First time in LSR
Post by: Rchop on September 19, 2009, 06:18:03 PM: I have a friend that I invited to the June Maxton meet that is part of a new LSR team racing at Maxton this weekend. After watching the goings on in June, he caught the bug. He is part of the Autometrics Motorsports team. Autometrics Motorsports is a professional road racing team competing in the Grand-Am Rolex Series, Grand-Am Koni Challenge, PCA Club Racing, and NASA. They prepared one of their cars to run in the E-MSP category with an existing record of 144+.

So far, they have run a top speed of 172.448 and are having a ball. Congrats to the Autometrics team :cheers:
