Weekend at Indy Road Course with Viper TA

[lmcgrew79]

Got to spend 3 days driving the Indy Road Course thanks the the efforts from the MORPCA. What a great facility and track. Weekend started great until the 3rd run session friday my abs system shut down. I tryed going out on track without it but the brakes would lockup with very minimal pedal pressure. Very special thanks Steve Hess, Tom Session, Manson Way, Leslie McLaughlin, John Gastman, Allen Stieg, Champion Dodge and there tech for getting me back up and running Saturday afternoon. Just so happens i had an abs wire in the harness split and grounding out they ended up by passing it to get me going until i got back home to get a new harness ordered. All of these guys/gals really went out of there way to help me get back on track, its almost unbelievable as i though my weekend was shot. Partly luck and partly alot of effort put in by the viper community :)

Here is a video of my best lap at Indy, ill get some more posted when i get a chance.

[Steve-Indy]

Not sure you call it overheating but im hitting 240 coolant temps and the red light background behind the temp gauge
starts flashing, i back it down a few turns and it drops. Oil temp is hitting 267 with no flashing lights.
