We entered our car in the Road Atlanta race this past weekend and placed second! This was the first Trans-Am race of the season....and our first Trans-Am race. We are going to try to race the entire season, we hope. Let's just say we are in until the money runs out...If you look at the links below, you might notice the lack of sponsors on our car.

We have a hell of a driver...a local young man, with loads of talent. I think he will go far. Hope so anyway.

For anyone who is interested...below are some links to info about the race, and even an in car camera view of the race.

Wish us luck.

We are Atlantic Autosport, and here is a link to the drivers website. After clicking on this link, click on the car to go there. Our car is the red corvette # 70. http://www.atlanticautosport.com/

Here is a link to the drivers (Mike Skeen) story about the race. http://mikeskeen.com/news.html#RA_TransAm_March09

Here is a link to the picture gallery. http://mikeskeen.com/media_imgs.html?page=undefined&albumid=5316732399491618241

Here is an article from the SpeedTV website, with a good plug for our driver. http://auto-racing.speedtv.com/article/scca-pickett-wins-in-trans-am-return-at-road-atlanta/

And here is a link to the in-car camera. This is pretty cool. http://mikeskeen.com/media_video.html

Will definitely try to make it. I was afraid I was going to be out of town on vacation but that's the week before. Whew! Yeah, looking forward to shootin' the bull and checking out your race car.

Maybe a mini SRT GTG if anyone else is interested.

Thanks Andrew...He sure can get the goody out of a car....

And thanks again, everyone, for the well wishes.

I hope the second place wasn't a fluke...

We will just keep on trying.

wow, what an awesome video... and a great driver with a strong future. Never saw one threat from behind, nothing but passing other cars. Looks like a very strong and well set up car, and you've picked a very skilled driver for sure. Only the best of luck to the whole team.
