hey-just found the site through a friend. from very southern md out on the chesapeake bay. team squirt has been racing and instructing since 02 in a silver svtf that replaced our trusty itb road racer. since we cant do engine mods, per the rules, we have concentrated on building a fairly bullet proof suspension and brake system. car has a custom welded in cage, gaz struts, spax rear shocks, custom lower control arms with slotted ball joint that lets us run 3 deg neg camber, etc etc-it has been a fun toy-no dnfs in 2 years on track. next up an emra weekend at lime rock park 10/29-30. see ya.
Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you post often and keep your eyes open for G2G's. If you have info on any that are happening in your area, post them up!
Thanks for joining!

thanks for making me feel welcome-and chelly we are having our 2nd annual on east coast on track g2g in november at virginia international raceway 3rd weekend in nov. lts not a race, but an open track affair hosted by national race team, g and w. last year we had 11 foci in track including turbo toms monster. funny seeing tom chase a gt3 porsche down at 145 mph plus! this year we already have 19 foci registered. i am actually blowing my last enduro of the year off to go-way too much fun. and i think some foci are coming out to lime rock for my upcoming emra event (10-29/30-friday instructing and time trialing-saturday a 1 hour enduro! anyway, very nice site!

chelly almost forgot-my season starts next february at vir full, thats all i know so far, but i will post track days soon after new years. i just know i will not spread myself as thin next year. ever closed your eyes while riding with a student on track? i am afraid i did that in my last session at summit point recently. knew it was time for a break.
I'd have love to have seen tom tracking down a GT3 porsche I imagine the look on the guys face in that car was priceless. Probably have to change his shorts after that also.
it was-tom passed me 1st and then got on the porsches tail on the back straight-tom said he was doing 147 when he went by it. guy wandered over to our pits later and asked "whats in that thing". to which tom replied, 325 hp at the wheels. tom is bringing that car and also his drag car out to vir this year. double whammy for the vipers we creamed last year.
