Terry Fair is an amateur racing driver with 32 recorded laps across 15 different vehicles on LapMeta, averaging 2.1 laps per car. Fair brings three decades of racing and engineering experience to amateur motorsport, holding a mechanical engineering technology degree from Texas A&M University. His professional engineering background spans metallurgy, mechanical equipment design, control systems, and wireless devices—technical expertise directly applicable to understanding vehicle dynamics and performance optimization.
Fair is the owner of Vorshlag Motorsports, a leading manufacturer of high-end suspension components including camber-caster adjustment plates, spherical shock mounts, and other suspension components. This dual role—business owner and active racer—keeps him connected to both product development and real-world testing. He usually campaigns one of the Vorshlag race cars at 25+ competition events annually, often co-driving with his wife Amy, demonstrating that amateur motorsport can be both serious pursuit and shared passion.
His LapMeta data shows 19 laps at 1.7 CCW, 4 laps at 1.7 CW, and 2 laps CCW configuration, with the 15-vehicle portfolio spanning diverse platforms. Fair actively participates in autocrossing, open track events, time trials, wheel-to-wheel road racing, and drag racing—remarkably diverse motorsport involvement demonstrating curiosity about all forms of competition. He and Amy drove their Vorshlag Motorsports Mustang to TT3 wins at Motorsports Ranch, showcasing consistent competitive success.
Fair exemplifies the engineer-racer archetype: combining theoretical knowledge from formal education with practical experience from decades of competition and business operations. His suspension company allows direct application of racing insights to product development, while testing those products in actual competition validates design decisions. With 32 laps across 15 vehicles, Terry Fair represents the complete amateur racer who integrates engineering expertise, business acumen, and competitive passion into comprehensive motorsport involvement.
This is the 10th track test of our narrow body 2006 Corvette, this time testing out the newly added long tube headers + exhaust + cold air intake and a tune, which picked up +23 whp (382.5 whp) over the baseline stock power we have run in the previous 9 tests (360 whp). We again ran on the 315/30R18 Yokohama A052 200TW street tires, MCS Remote Double Adjustable coilovers, working Mk60 ABS, and newly added G-LOC R16 front / R12 rear pads.
Terry again had a completely free track in this session and took 4 hot laps with 2 cool down laps in the middle, netting his best on lap number 6 - which is not the ideal window for these tires, which heat up very quickly. The new lap time of 1:21.127 is 7.6 sec faster than the baseline stock test #1 and .8 sec faster than test #9. This was a decent lap time improvement for such a minor bump in power - but we have much more to come!
As always, you can follow all of the development and progress of this project on the Vorshlag Forums. Thanks for watching!
