Tarzan Yamada pilots our car to a blistering 1:50.755, it's currently the fastest time for a RWD car on R-comps at Buttonwillow Raceway. There is still more time to be had out of the car and we're looking forward to going even faster next year. Next target.... Overall Limited.

Chassis/suspension/aero setup played a huge factor, we designed/tested aero extensively throughout the season, and at SLB it all came together. The car had the right balance of everything which lead us to the top spot of the podium and the record.

Results for the day:
1st Place Limited RWD
New Lap Record - Limited RWD
Fastest Limited Class car of the day (fwd/rwd/awd)
4th Overall fastest car of the day.
