Super Tour at Circuit of the Americas

Post by tiagosantos »

I'm excitedly following the weekend from a million miles away.. Saw a couple of onboard videos already, one FA and one FB. What an awesome track!

Not sure how it would be in a vee, I guess there are lots of "fast" corners! :D

Times so far:

Pratice 1
1. Tyler Hunter 2:40.473
2. Dwight Calkins 2:52.998
3. Duke Waldrop 2:56.196

Practice 2
1. Tyler Hunter 3:04.486
2. Stevan Davis 3:08.520
3. Charles Hearn 3:08.980

From what I hear on apexspeed, P1 started damp but started drying up towards the end, P2 was wet.

Heard that an Atlantic did 2:03's on the test day! Kinda funny how close the lap times are to Road America :D

Attached is a link to YouTube showing the FV race at COTA on Saturday. The place is incredible. It is very fun to drive, very challenging and has tons of opportunities for creative passing. I hope more FV drivers can attend next year. Congrats for Tyler Hunter on the track record. Enjoy!

Please pardon the newbie question, but I'm so new to FV that I haven't yet driven my car... :lol:

Anyway, it sounded in the video as though your gearbox kept popping out of fourth gear. Is that right?

Congrats on the double wins and thanks for posting up the video!

I just watched a short clip of the video again. The audio is messed up and not in sync with the video. Something happened when we transferred the files. Sorry about that.
