ROUND 4 - ROAD ATLANTA
RACE: MONDAY OCTOBER 14
8:00PM EST / 01:00AM GMT
Welcome to Season 7, Round 4
The fourth round of the Ricmotech MiniMite Sportscar Challenge takes us to Road Atlanta for two 35-minute sprint races. Please Note - for the GT4 class we are going to try a change to the inversion for the second race to the top 10 instead of 50%. The LMP3 inversion will remain at 50%.
Road Atlanta can provide a ton of fun racing IF drivers will be sure to practice taking Turn 3 side-by-side. Usually we can get cleanly around Turn1 but then into the braking zone and over the crest of Turn 3 it gets real narrow and problematic. Please pick someone else in practice this week and make the run out of Turn 1 side-by-side to enter Turns 2 and 3 so you have a chance to really get that down from both sides of the track. Similarly, there can be terrific side-by-side racing in Turns 10-10a, but again, you have to practice executing it cleanly.
Please also feel welcome to use the Discord server to chat amongst yourselves during practice.
