Track Report: Driving Circuit Of The Americas
We recently had the opportunity to spend a weekend on track at Circuit Of The Americas during a track day event hosted by MVP Track Time. Because COTA is a new track and a singular facility in the US (e.g., United States Grand Prix site, $400 million facility) we thought you might enjoy some of our thoughts on the experience before we can do our standard Track Profile.
Track Report: Buttonwillow Raceway Park
Perhaps colored by the thrill of being in the Radical, we came away with a strong desire to run Buttonwillow again. The track has several engaging features.
Track Report: Monticello Motor Club, South Course
We were given access to the South Course, which uses Turns 4 through 12a of the full Monticello circuit. Turn 4 is bypassed by the pit lane, which exited at the outside of Turn 5. From there, we floored it into Turn 6, a fast wide right-hander, at which point we shifted into third gear and bent to the right to set up for Turn 7. Staying to the outside (left), we braked late and heavy before pulling in hard to the right for a late apex. Turn 7 really showed off the amount of grip of the 1M Coupe.
