Two weeks ago I spent some time at Pocono International Raceway to get in a little practice for our One Lap of America effort. The event was a drivers school where I was instructing for the Cumberland Valley Corvette Club. We had about a dozen members from our Lancaster County Corvette Club. Everyone from our group didn't get in the attached picture since some were out
on the track at the time. I'm hoping for little better weather for One Lap since it was cold and windy for our weekend and we even had an overnight snow shower and we woke up to lightly snowed upon cars.
Unlike our regular track day events where we use competition tires, we will be using street tires for the entire One Lap event. The tires are branded and stenciled so they can be easily identified, and you need to take care of your tires so they last the entire trip. If you injure a tire on a road hazard you may be able to substitute a tire if it does not give you a competitive advantage.
We will be leaving shortly and I will try to do nightly updates so check back often during the first week of May. For those new to the blog, be sure to scroll down a few pages and read some of the stories from last years event.
