DOMINATION | Mid Ohio Part 1
Last year, I blew up two engines and only finished half a lap. This year, I'm looking for redemption. Can I finish a race this time? Can I podium? Can I win in dominating fashion with zero pressure from the Corvettes? Damn right I can! Part 1 from Mid Ohio, my home track. Practice, qualifying and Race 1 with data. Unfortunately no live stream from this event so no external camera or commentary from Kyle Heyer or Greg Creamer. Enjoy the extra data to make up for it though.
