301 Hobby and Raceway (Wildwood, FL)
GT2-E
Received a alm steering linkage from Integy last week. Seems an alm steering linkage messes with an AMB transponder!! Missed four laps at 301 today, race director noticed it was doing this again in the 2nd qual also. Moved it about a 1/2 inch forward and it was counting correctly in the 6 minute main.
Lined up in the TQ position and was away at the tone. Mike got close about two minutes in, close enough to NASCAR me in the turn just before the timing loop!!!! Decided that Mike wanted 1st place and he isn't going to get it!!!! Drove deeper into the turns for two laps, putting about 30 foot between us. By the 5 minute mark Mike was 3/4 of a lap behind me.

301 is THE best track that I have ever raced on! Hard packed clay with NO treatment other than RC tires. Even with a very little dusting the traction was 100%
