On to Lime Rock!

On to Lime Rock!
We are headed to Lime Rock today for the upcoming Grand Am Mustang Challenge Race at Lime Rock in Connecticut. Karl Thomson, Team Principal at Compass360 Racing, has done a great job of promoting the Mustang Challenge Series and is excited about having a Mustang Challenge car to the rapidly expanding Compass360 portfolio of Grand Am entries.

If Karl is excited, you can imagine how I feel! I am very excited to be a member of the Compass360 and Lutz Teams and look forward to making my own contributions throughout the season. Several news organizations have picked up the story, just adding to the fun and excitement. This from the Inside Track Breaking News Blog: http://insidetracknews.blogspot.com/2010/05/weidner-joins-compass360-for-mustang.html.

A note about Roebling Road – the test went very, very well. It was a great opportunity to learn the car and how to get most from this great Mustang. The car was extremely well prepared by the Lutz Team – Zach and Bob Lutz and John and Jaime Eversley. Thanks to all of them for making it a great weekend.

Thanks to Zach’s great coaching and data analysis we dropped my lap times by 5 seconds from the first run on Saturday to Sunday am. Sunday was very fun and challenging as the track became very slick and lively. That may be a good tune-up for Lime Rock if it rains as predicted this weekend!
