Your welcome, no problem. Thank you guys for the opportunity to hang out with you and the very primo pit location.
As nice as the co-drive was and all, I wanna race heads up against that green car next year!
We’d like to extend a hearty thank-you to Joe Gonzalez for this opportunity.
We drove a borrowed LeGrand at the Solo National Championship. Besides a mainline adrenaline buzz, this also gave us a chance to compare our car’s handling to that of another LeGrand.
Joe Gonzalez’s car is a Mk18—like ours—and still has the spool-type axle setup. This meant that the car behaved similarly to ours at the limit (read: a handful). However, it also felt a little softer in the nose—great for turn-in response, but not so great for mid-corner grip when the splitter started grinding against the Nebraska concrete.
The first day had our co-driver, Joe, just out of the trophies in seventh place. Per was learning the car and landed a mid-pack 10th. On the second day, Per figured out a few things and had the seventh-fastest time. At the end of both days, we were in ninth and tenth spots with Joe leading Per by a few tenths.
We’d like to extend a hearty, thank-you to Joe Gonzalez for this opportunity. It helped reinspire our team as we finish up this nearly unending conversion from the spool to a real differential.
