Default Chris Rado's WORLD Racing BREAKING RECORDS!


February 15, 2008

Chris and The WORLD Racing guys couldn't have started their 2008 season off any better by eclipsing their previously standing record at the big track of Willow Springs, CA

previous record: Chris Rado 1.29:540

NEW FWD record: Chris Rado 1.27:306

here is a video edited by myself of the record setting weekend at Willow Springs Raceway

Bernardo ran a 1:28.5 in the naturally aspirated Hasport Integra there last time out. I guess it's time to make another trip out with the supercharger strapped on and break that record. I'll drop you guys an email when we're going in case you want to come out and watch.

Nice video.

Thanks for the kind words guys. That fast lap was made on the first session that we have been able to get back on the track since the accident at the Buttonwillow Super Lap Battle. So we finally have somewhere to start with this car. Not to make excused but..... the car was on low boost and a conservative alignment. So be our guest to break the 1.27:306

I know this is Honda-Tech, but if you Scion guys want to know how fast your car ultimately is, let b drive the car, press record on the video, and then you will all see just how it is REALLY done...

wasn't the integra restricted to honda challenge rules(engine wise)? and isn't this scion turbo/super charged? bernardo is a pretty good driver, just tweak the engine a little and you'll break past that 1:27 no problem.

it was our first time our for the year after we made a bunch of changesover the off season. so we didn't want to throw the kitchen sink(high boost) at it before we made sure all of our changes were improving the car

HC rules put it at a minimum of 2525, or a little over 2550. As i am not sure what type of cage it has.

Congrats!

You guys should come out to some Mid Atlantic NASA events since your in the area. Have you run at VIR or Summit Point with that car?
