TC at Watkins Glen

Recommended Posts

Every year the Watkins Glen race track has an "opening day" event where you can drive your street car in a semi-controlled environment for 3 laps for a $25 charitable donation. This year I took the TC and while the engine and brakes performed as admirably as expected, I was pleasantly surprised by the handling. Despite the numb steering, the TC would take a nice set entering a corner and not fall all over itself as I applied the power coming out (Note: my TC:p has new struts, bushings & cv joints). I had a blast. Picture at Tracktime Photos. - Nile

The BMW driver was taking early apexes so I could get on the gas a lot earlier than he could and then motor away from him coming out of the turns. After our laps I noticed he was looking at my TC with an odd expression, probably trying to figure out how someone snuck a 318 into a LeBaron convertible. - Nile
