Too many thumbs, some additional thoughts

I was not quite finished with my last post but I guess I had too many thumbs and somehow my last post got published without being finished. To see the whole post on the blog please go to http://onelapadventure.blogspot.com/ . Don't forget on the blog you can go to the bottom of the page and select older posts to see previous posts, even the last two years.

One additional point I wanted to make is that we have raised about $1700 for Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition to date. Our minimum goal is $2000 so we still have a little way to go. For anyone who would like their name, or the name of someone in Memory of, or in Honor of, we are putting names on the cars for a minimum$10 donation. Please make checks out to Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition. Donations can be sent to me at Jim Roberts 14 W. Main St. Mount Joy, Pa. 17552.

Be an Optimist and look for the positives




Just trying to look at the positives and take the optimistic view, here are some thoughts. I was analyzing the week and came to the realization that after the first event we were in 6th place, higher in the standings than any of the ultimate overall top 10 finishers. After my run at Summit Point I think we were in about 16th place, which was right on track for our goal of a top 20 finish. Unfortunately, when I caught the Porsche in front of me it took a couple of corners to get around him and I lost a few seconds or we might have been another position or two better. At this point I was 20 points behind Scott in the overall scoring. Of course it all went south after that with the engine problem. Wait a minute, I said we were looking for positives. The early analysis shows a hole in the number 5 piston, at least it's not a fully blown engine. We suspect at this point that it may have been an injector that was working, but at less than 100%.


Scott Breneman's parents offered Rick and I a ride back to Mount Joy to pick up my other Corvette. We got home about 4:30 loaded the car, checked the oil, antifreeze and air pressure and were on our way by 5pm heading for South Carolina to catch up with the group. The 92 coupe has not been used as a track car for several years and is stock except for some Dynomax mufflers, but it was up to the task.


Another positive is that my transit driver Rick Stauffer worked out very well as a partner. After an initial getting used to the heavy clutch and cam in the yellow vette the highway miles went well. Rick has a very good awareness and comfort in traffic and from a personality standpoint we got along great.



My co-driver from the last two years, Scott Breneman meanwhile was doing great. After a slow start at the Wet Skid pad he started putting some good runs together and stayed in the 14th or better position for most of the week. After the Dry Skid pad was in the books he had finished the week in 13th position overall, his best finish ever. Congratulations to Scott and Nick.


Another positive is that we were at the closest point to home, only 2 1/2 hours away, and we were able to get a ride home with Scott Breneman's parents who had come down to see him run. We were the only team to get another vehicle after the first one failed and continue on, even though we stopped earning points.

We Made it Home

We made it home on Sunday morning after stopping at Summit Point, West Virginia to pick up my trailer from my 2000 Yellow Corvette that has been sitting down there since I had engine problems there last Sunday.

From the numbers, we put on 1372 miles on the 2000 Corvette, 4017 miles on my 1992 Chrome Alusion Purpleen Corvette. In addition we rode home 127 miles (to pick up the other car) with Scott Breneman's parents who had come down to see him run at Summit. That totals 5516 for our One Lap effort. The 5389 miles we put on the two Corvettes averaged 21.64 miles per gallon which includes both the highway and track miles. The 2000 was getting 18.5 mpg and the 92 averaged 23.0 mpg. We used 249 gallons of gas and I just heard on the news that gas is expected to go down in price (now that we are back).

While we were gone we passed through 16 states east of the Mississippi, got 0 tickets and had no mechanical problems on the road. We did hit one road alligator (hunk of big truck tire) and missed a deer by inches. Some of the roads were very rough and we scraped a couple of times and bent one of the mufflers down a bit. Not sure if the bent down muffler was from the rough roads or the road alligator. Speaking of mechanical problems, I will go down to West Virginia tomorrow and retrieve my 2000 and try to figure out what failed in the engine.

There was an interesting mix of vehicles in this year One Lap with BMW being the most prolific make. Next to the BMW's were the Porsches and then the Mitsibushi Evos, Corvettes and of course the awesome Nissan GTRs. There were a couple of Dodge Vipers and Roush Mustangs, and a few Miatas, Audis and Subarus. Also in the mix was a Honda Civic with a turbo charger as well as a super charger, another Honda with national champion Andy Hollis driving, a factory sponsored Dodge Challenger and a host of other neat and or eclectic vehicles.

This was my third year doing One Lap and it was a great weather week for our effort. We had some rain while driving but none while we were at a track competing.

Check back for a few more of my thoughts and I will let you know what the engine problem was.

Geat Run at Autobahn Country Club Raceway

At Autobahn Country Club Raceway outside of Chicago, near Joliet, Ill we ran both the North course and the South course. On the 1.4 mile North course I was only able to gain about 5 seconds on the car in front of me, but on my South course I caught the new Camaro in front of me in the middle of the third lap and made a pass near the kink on the back straight. They work hard to send the cars out with enough separation so that passing during your time trial is unusual. Even though I am running exhibition it still is a rush to make up the distance and make a pass. I was certainly out classed on tires since I have my old all season tires on the 92, I now wish we would have stopped at Summit Point on the way south after we retrieved the other car and swapped tires to the high performance summer which are better for the track.

Only 105 miles to South Bend this afternoon and we get a little time to decompress after mostly 600 to 700 mile nights. Tomorrow we will finish with the Dry Skid competition and after that the awards banquet then a 600 mile run to Pa.

Barber was beautiful

Barber Motorsports Park in probably the Augusta of race tracks. It is groomed much like a golf course. Lots of sculpture on the grounds like misquitos, motorcycles, a spider, etc etc. Even under the tree groves in the infield they are groomed with mulch. You can see where cars gouged the grass and it was replaced with sod. If you hit a guard rail it will cost you about $1800, tear up the grass by sliding off and it will cost you. It is real nice and they want to keep it that way.

The track was fast and lots of elevation changes and blind corners, a real challenging course that you can't master without a lot of practice. I am running at the end since I am in a different car from what we started in, but I had a real nice run and caught the car in front of me about half way through the third lap.

Our transit drive was a long one. We went from Birmingham, Alabama to Joliet, Ill. just a little southwest of Chicago. The trip was 688 miles, with a drive time of about 10 hours. Tomorrow we will do both the North course and the South course at Autobahn Country Club Raceway outside of Chicago another top notch facility. After Autobahn we have one of the shortest legs of the trip over to South Bend, Indiana for a dry skid pad competition on Saturday.

We have had quite a bit of attrition this week, with me being one of the first. I think we are down about 15 cars from when we started out. Today the blue Viper hit a wall and damaged the right front as well as the oil cooler. The plan was to take the oil cooler out of play and to re-plumb the oil lines and to continue the trip. We are the only team to continue with a replacement vehicle running exibition.

If it's Wednesday it must be Circuit Grand Bayou

Today we ran at Circuit Grand Bayou Raceway about 60 miles west of New Orleans. This track is a 1.8 mile 14 turn road course with no elevation change at all, totally flat. It was a fun track and I was able to make a nice run but because of the car change I will get no points for the run. Sometimes it is really nice to know where you are going even if you have a GPS. We got way back in the boonies and the GPS took us back a gravel road. About a half mile back it announced we were there. There was no track in sight. We had to get back out to the main road to ask someone local and got pointed in the right direction. The white Challenger followed us down the same road and with their GPS they got the same wrong directions. I heard a couple of others had the same problem.

Some of the most exciting driving was on the highway. By One Lap standards it was a short 429 mile run and we got in at an early 7:30 and went out to eat with Scott and Nick. The excitement on the highway was a deer that decided to make a run for it across the highway. Some heads up threshold braking and I missed broadsiding the deer by inches.

Tomorrow we will run at the world famous Barber Motorsports Park outside of Birmingham, Alabama. They call it a 15 turn track but it really works out to 21 turns when you count the extra turns that they letter instead, such as 5, 5a, 5b, 5c,etc. This track is used by the Rolex series, American Lemans, and the Indy Car series as well as many others. It has about 80 feet of elevation changes and blind turns and is a beautiful park like setting on 740 acres.

Scott continues to work towards a top 10 finish this year. This mornings run was not quite what he wanted but in the afternoon run he improved by several positions and is now in 12th position
overall. The week is winding down and we still have two events tomorrow then two at Autobahn Country Club Raceway outside of Chicago, then we finish up with the Dry Skid Pad competition (as long as it does not rain) at the Tire Rack facility in South Bend, Indiana on Saturday.

Running the High Banks at Daytona and Thanks to Ty

Today we ran the high banks at Daytona. We ran the road course like the Rolex 24 hour race does, which uses almost all the main track and adds another mile to the infield and also uses the chicane or "Bus Stop" near the end of the back straight. Now that we are in another car we no longer earn points so I run near the end of the run groups. Also since I am not getting points and since this has not been my track car for a few years, I am trying to be a little gentle on the car on these events. My goal at this point is to experience each track but to not flog the car so we can finish the rest of the week.

Scott continues to do well and has climbed back into the top ten overall after Daytona and Gainesville. Congrats to Scott and keep up the good work.

Tomorrow we run at Circuit Grand Bayou about 60 miles west of New Orleans. After that we go to the famous Barber Motorsports Park outside Birmingham, Alabama only 429 miles away. It looks like the easiest drive we have had all week.

I just want to give a shout out and a THANK YOU to Ty Timperley from Glendale Wisconsin, and is part of the #19 team with the white Nissan GT-R. Ty brought his tools over and gave it a good shot trying to help diagnose my engine problem at Summit Point on Sunday in West Virginia. Even though it was nothing that we could fix I really appreciate the help Ty gave. It is amazing with One Lap that when someone has a problem how other rally to try to help the problem. A fix is not always possible but it is just great having people like Ty wiling to help, thanks again Ty.

The Trip continues





Sorry I haven't been blogging as much lately, but we have had problems and have had long distance days.



The two pictures posted are Scott Breneman (who I was co-driver with the last 2 years) in front of his car #35, and Rick and my new ride #55. This is my 1992 Chrome Alusion Corvette coupe.

I guess by now everyone has heard of our engine failure. After a pretty good run at Summit Point, I caught a Porsche and got held up a bit and finally completed my pass after a couple of corners. After the pass, the run to the finish line. When I crossed the finish line I looked in my mirror and saw I was trailing smoke and it didn't look good. Can be sure exactly what is wrong but it lost a cylinder and was not going to be a quick fix. We bummed a ride home with Scott's parents who had come down to see him run, and picked up my other Corvette. I haven't tracked that car for a few years, I have however used it in autocrosses a few time in the last year or so.
Anyhow, we have had a couple of very long day putting on 772 miles on Saturday night, 721 miles on Sunday and 633 miles today if we make it all the way to Daytona Beach tonight. I write this as I am in the right seat now heading down 95 with only 258 miles to go and it's only 11:02pm on the dashboard clock. We might stop a little short and finish the drive tomorrow. Since we changed cars we stopped earning points and I run at the end of each event with the group affectionately know as "all remaining cars". The one advantage of running late is you can get to the track a little later, as long as you don't miss your run group.

This looks like it may be the year for Scott to really shine. Yesterday morning after the results from Summit Point were in Scott was tied for 7 th place overall which is awesome. He had a good first run at Carolina Motorsports Park but on his second run he overcooked a corner and did a little off track excursion but recovered nicely and got going again but losing some time off what would have been a good run. As of this evening Scott is in 14th place overall, but a few of the cars ahead of him had troubles today and will likely fall out of the top ten. Since our hope of a good finish this year were dashed we are now the cheering section for Scott and Nick having a great year.

I will try to post again tomorrow night, but we have a 116 mile trip to Gainesville then a 607 mile run to New Orleans after the Gainesville event ends around 8 pm. Don't know if a motel will be in the cards for tomorrow. We might just have enough time to get to the track and sleep in the car and wait until the track opens.

ps: We may have to stop and get some more Oreo cookies to keep this trip going.

Sucess at Wet Skid Pad



Just a quick note since I need to get some sleep after putting on over 650 miles today from South Bend to Grissom Air Force Base to Summit Point, West Virginia. I had some real sucess today with a 1st place in class and 6th place overall in the 1st event, the Wet Skid Pad competition. More to tell later.

Friday, April 29, 2011

We are on our way!



We had a nice long drive yesterday, only one of many 600 plus mile runs we will have this week. Got to South Bend around 7:30 last night so we had time to get a good meal. That's real important since much of this week the menu will be fast food. The ride out was uneventful except my Valentine 1 radar detector failed so we stopped and Rick bought an Escort. I guess that was only fitting since Escort is one of the national sponsors of this years event.


The picture above shows Rick and I next to the loaded car before leaving right after the storm and tornado warning on Thursday morning. You can't see the little tire trailer on behind from the angle of the picture. The other picture shows me finishing up the decal application process. We are required to have all the decals for the national sponsors before we go through tech.


Tomorrow the real fun starts, in the morning we will do the wet skid pad competition. Wet skid pad consists of doing two laps around one direction on the skid pad with the sprinklers on then a keyhole turn and two laps the other direction. Your best lap in each direction are added together and divided by two to get your average speed. With that speed they calculated your g force. Unfortunately there are alot of all wheel drive vehicles and they certainly get the advantage in this event.


There is an impressive mix of vehicles entered in this years race. There are three Vipers, six Corvettes, three Nissan GTRs probably 4 EVOs and a bunch of BMWs and Porsches, a couple Cadillac CTSVs, a new Challenger with retro style Rally driving lights that must be the size of small dinner plates. There are also a couple of Hondas one of which is twin charged, both super charged and turbo charged. Several Mazdas including a new Mazda 2 which comes stock as a 2000 pound car with a 105hp engine. This car however has a transplant drivetrain from a Mazda Speed3 and now has over 300hp and has Charles Espenlaub as its driver. Charles has several wins as a professional sports car driver. There are many other cars from vintage Camaros to Rousch Mustangs, a Jaguar XK, a VW TDI and an Ultima GTR which is a botique Lotus sized sports car with a big engine and many more. You can find the whole list at http://www.onelapofamerica.com under 2011 entrants list.


After the wet skid pad we head to Grissom Air Force Base and compete in a large autocross on the runway in the afternoon, then off to Summit Point in West Virginia for two track events on Sunday. Keep checking back and watch for more updates. Wish us luck.

Soon Time to Leave







It won't be long now till we leave on this great adventure. Last week Sharon and I did a couple of days at the shore and I took the folding bike along to ride and build up some riding stamina. Many of the tracks we visit we have never seen before. The format is, you come out of the pits and do one lap and that is considered your recognizance lap. After that one lap you stop at the start finish line and are flagged to a start your competitive run one car at a time. It is certainly a disadvantage if you are not familiar with the track versus some of the competitors that are. There just isn't enough time to always walk the track, so I will be taking my bike and can hopefully do a lap or two to get a little familiar with the driving line. At most tracks you are allowed to walk, jog, roller blade, scooter or bike around the track but you can't use anything motorized.


We are now up to over $1300 in our fundraising for the Pa Breast Cancer Coalition. When we took this on we thought it would be an easy goal of about $2000 and really thought we would do much more than that. I guess part of it is the economy. If anyone out there still would like to donate we will put your name on the car for any donation of at least $10. If you get your name on the car before we leave, you can consider yourself riding along vicariously;^) Many people have made a donation in honor or in memory of a friend or family member who has dealt with cancer or breast cancer. We will be accepting donations for the rest of this years track and show season and the stickers will be seen at many track events and car shows. As I mentioned before Rick has also decorated his car with the Breast Cancer Coalition logo and is putting the same stickers on his car.


This will probably be my last post until we get started, but I will try to update on a regular basis as time permits from the road. It does look like a couple of days will be extremely long and by the time we get to our motel updating my blog might not be a high priority. Please check back often for any updates and feel free to share the blog address with anyone who might be a motor sport enthusiast or be interested in this type of thing.

Corvette filling up with Breast Cancer Stickers




The Jimbob Racing charity this year is the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition. We are placing a sticker on the car for each donation of $10 or more. Many people have donated and have their own name put on to show their support for the Coalition. Others have put the name of a friend or a loved one who has dealt with this terrible disease. Space is filling up, so don't wait too long if you would like to make a donation. Checks should be made out to the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition, if you see me or Rick cash is also acceptable. Feel free to make donations to put several stickers on the car. With the stickers you can ride along vicariously on this amazing adventure and donate to a good cause at the same time. We will also be filling Rick's Corvette up with the stickers. Rick has placed the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition logo on the hood of his car and will attempt to fill the hood and trunk area. He plans to also leave the stickers on through the car show season, well into the fall.


If you are sending a check by mail please send it to Jim Roberts West Main Auto, 14 W. Main St. Mount Joy, Pa. 17552

New Graphics on car




Just got the car back from SSC Tint and Graphics yesterday with all the new graphics on for this years event. Well not exactly all. When we get to South Bend they will have some additional stickers to put on for the national sponsors etc. Mike Snyder really did a nice job on the vinyl and finished it up ahead of schedule. A big THANK YOU to Mike. If you need signing, window tinting, graphics on your car etc. and you are anywhere near Elizabethtown, Pa. be sure to check with Mike and tell him Jim sent you. Here are some pictures of the car, one with Mike in the background. Off to the right is the car he campaigns very sucessfully in the SCCA Autocross Series and some National SCCA events.


In a little less than a month Rick and I will leave on this big adventure. Just a few things to do yet to get ready. Rick is getting his graphics done today on his Corvette. We are decorating Rick's Corvette to enhance the fund raising effort. Mike will put the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition logo on the hood and Rick will work at covering the hood and trunk with the stickers with names on them from those who donate $10 or more in honor of someone who has delt with Breast Cancer. We will also put names on in Memorial of someone and many people will just put their own name on to show support of the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition.


Just a reminder, don't forget you can click on "older posts" at the bottom of each page to go back to older stories from this year and even further back to stories from the past two years.

Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition is 2011 Charity for Jimbob Racing



Jimbob racing would like to announce that the 2011 charity that we will support is the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition. The PBCC, represents,supports and serves breast cancer survivors and their families in Pennsylvania through educational programing, legislative advocacy and breast cancer research grants. The PBCC is a statewide non-profit organization that creates the hope of a brighter tomorrow by providing action and information to women with breast cancer today.

We are accepting donations in any amount, but for a minimum donation of $10 we will put a sticker on our cars with the name of someone you would like to honor or recognize in memory. You can also put your own name on a sticker showing your support. We will put as many stickers on my car as possible, on the roof, on the roof hoop and the high part of the back window. We will also attempt to cover Rick's Corvette convertible with stickers. We are hoping to leave the stickers on through the competition and show season that lasts well into the fall.

With the visibility and publicity of this awesome adventure and all the exposure the cars will get, it seemed like a perfect opportunity to leverage this to the community good. With this in mind Rick and I are working to raise awareness and at least a couple of thousand dollars for the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition.
Please see Jim or Rick for your donation or send your donation to and make check payable to:
Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition

2011 Sponsors




I just want to acknowledge and Thank my sponsors and encourage everyone to patronize those businesses who have made our 2011 One Lap of America effort possible. Two Cousins Pizza of Mount Joy, The Watering Trough, Mount Joy Diner, Rutt's Appliances, Autolocator.com, Krunch Kritters, Mick's All American Pub, Pro Tune Performance Inc. SSC Tint and Graphics, and the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition. If or when you patronize these businesses let them know you followed this years race. They want to know their advertising dollars are working.

So far there are 63 teams signed up. Our category, which is SSGT1-BB, has 13 registered to date. That encompasses Sports/GT cars which cost new over $50,000 (cost new at today's prices) and are big bore, over 3.5 liters of engine displacement. There are several other categories but one thing that makes it interesting is the car is registered as what it was born as. For example if you run a Mazda Miata but put a big honkin V8 under the hood, it is still a Miata.

We are raising money for the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition by puting stickers on the car for a minimum $10 donation. The stickers can have a name of someone you would like to honor that has had breast cancer, in memory of someone, or with your own name showing support for the effort against breast cancer. Check their web site at http://PBCC.me

For those who don't scroll back I just wanted to show the route map again. Once again I would like to mention the map was borrowed from the One Lap for Dogs team. Be sure to visit their web site at http://onelapfordogs.com/ they are raising money for Canine Partners For Life an organization that places assist dogs with over 400 people in need around the country. They do amazing work with both assist and seizure alert dogs.

Hood Sponsor re-signs for 2011


Two Cousins Pizza of Mount Joy will again be our Hood Sponsor for our One Lap of America effort. The hood has always gotten a lot of attention, especially in the paddock when the hood was raised and people would refer to it as the Pizza Man car. Nearly all of the past sponsors have re-signed from last year, so it won't be long until we complete the graphics update on the car. It is amazing how quickly the time is going by as we look forward to the end of April when we head west to South Bend, Indiana. There is still much to do.

Very shortly we plan to post information about our new charity and some fresh ideas to leverage this awesome adventure to the community good. Keep checking back for more information, this is the fourth installment about this years effort. If you scroll down you will see previous stories and then you can click "older posts" at the bottom of each page and see stories from the last two years. My partner in One Lap, Rick Stauffer, has also started a blog at http://rick1lap.blogspot.com/ be sure to check this out regularly also.

Rick Stauffer joins Jim Roberts' Team

Rick Stauffer, of Ephrata, Pa. and a long time member of the Lancaster County Corvette Club has joined with Jim Roberts on his team to participate in this year's One Lap of America. Jim will be doing the competitive driving this year and Rick will help as a transit driver, sharing the highway miles that will total close to 5,000 miles in this years event. The actual event is about 3400 miles plus the miles out and back to South Bend, Indiana and the track miles add up to that total. The 2011 One Lap of America will cover a large part of the eastern United States. You can scroll down the page to see a map and the tracks we will visit on a previous post.

Now that our team is complete, we need to get on with the details of preparing for this major endurance event. It is very important that the car be checked over very carefully since any type of breakdown would really hamper a good finish. We do not trailer from track to track, the car must be driven the entire distance, and most days we will put on between 500 and 600 miles.

The picture above was taken while the #22 was on display at the Corvettes at Carlise in August of 2010.

Shakedown Run to Rolex 24 Hour at Daytona



I just got back from our "road trip" to the Rolex 24 Hour race in Daytona which we also used to give the car a shakedown run to be sure everything was working well. Had a great trip except for the start. Wednesday morning when we left the weather didn't co-operate and I woke up to snow already on the ground, instead of the wintry mix that wasn't supposed to start until we were well south of here. After a failed start I returned home and changed tires with my other Corvette. These were all season high performance, wrong sizes but close enough and a lot more grip in snow covered conditions. Five miles or so south of York and it turned to all rain, if we would have only left a little sooner.
The race was great to watch and the Corvette ran well. We averaged about 21 mpg and about the only adjustment needed to the car will be to refine the tune a little as it was running rich until it warmed up. The weather in Florida was a whole lot better than at last years race when we were freezing and with a brisk wind. This year Saturday was in the high 60's and Sunday got up to the low 70's. Probably should have stayed down for another couple of months because when we returned we came home to temperatures in the 20's and another wintry mix.

The Planning starts


Well it is time to start planning One Lap of America for 2011. On the map it shows the route we will be taking this year. After driving 700 miles to South Bend from home in Lancaster County Pa. we will start the event at the Tire Rack Skid pad in South Bend, In. with a wet skid pad competition on Saturday morning. From there travel one of our shortest distances of only 82 miles to Grissom Air Force Base north of Kokomo, In. for an Autocross on the runways of Grissom, Saturday afternoon. After Grissom we head east for a long drive of 552 miles to Summit Point WV. to the 2 mile 10 turn Summit Point Raceway for our Sunday morning event. This being our first road course, it is the event that will set the seeding order for the rest of the week. The higher in the field you finish at this track the sooner you do your runs all week long. The sooner you finish each day the quicker you can get moving to the next track and the quicker you get to the motel for some much appreciated sleep.
Brian Gomez another One Lap competitor, created the map graphic that you see above and is raising money for his cause "Canine Partners for Life" , be sure to go to his web site http://www.onelapfordogs.com/ for more information.
Note: If you click on the map it will enlarge for a better view. Keep checking back for more details as our plans develope.
