First time at Buttonwillow Raceway Park and tried out their new "Circuit" layout. Was hoping for a much cooler weather but unfortunately it was over 100 degrees. I brought out the Redwood Motorsport 2019 Tesla M3P to Lightspeed Time Trial and managed to snag first place over a Porsche GT4 in TTC class. Really struggled to keep battery and motor temps cool as I wasn't even able to get a full lap without thermal limitations. These are learnings that we'll take to keep developing and pushing this vehicle.
Thank you so much to the team at Redwood Motorsport for putting together such a well-built car. Stayed tuned for more updates as we make progress!
