Post any lap time you have had at Lime Rock.

 

[Sean Roe]

In 1995, driving a 1992 Corvette with shaved Bridgestone Potenza RE71 street tires, 1:01.5 with the chicane.

That's fast best I did was 1:03

Wow Smokin.Same lap times as a 70HP formula vee.

 

[GTS Bruce]

Save yourself some money if you want to go fast.Buy yourself an F500.You can use the viper or countach as a tow vehicle. Bruce

 

[GTS Bruce]

F500 is a single seater class in scca.Like a large go cart with a full single seater body.Open wheels.Powered by a 500cc 2 stroke.Weighs around 600 lbs?Many are faster than a FF2000.Can be hauled on a snowmobile trailer.Can probably pick up a good used one for less than $10,000.Inexpensive,easy to maintian.A lot faster than a Viper at the track.

Yep thats it!Formula chain saw.A lot faster than I want to go.I have been yanking your chain.Hope you don't mind.The difference in speed between a purpose built race car and a hot street car is amazing.Even 30 years ago 60 HP FV's were doing 1:03 at lime rock.Sure there was no chicane then but they (we) were also running in a swarm of traffic.

I run 1:00s in a T1 ACR but a good driver in my car could probably do a 58-59.
