This was the 6th points event for SCCA TT in 2025, and Amy's 2nd time to run the MSR 1.7 CW this year. Her 1:24.43 lap was a personal best for her, but 3.4 seconds off what this car has done on the 1.7 CCW course. Granted, those are different directions, but times are usually within about 1 second.
Amy crashed over a curb exiting Wagon Wheel in session 1 and busted up that corner's splitter strut, splitter end treatment, some brackets, a fender liner, and more. After some small repairs she went out in session 2 to salvage a faster lap, and found time - enough to win Max5 by a 1.3 seconds, mostly because her Max5 competitor's 86 smacked the same curb and bent a strut in session 1. This was a battle of attrition more than anything!
It was stupid hot out there, getting up to 96F later in the day. After Amy ran 10 laps in session 2, we loaded up and were gone by 11:45 am when it was already 88F. Too hot to do this ALL DAY in Texas in August!
We will be back soon for testing, always looking for a faster lap. Thanks for watching!
