    Mid Ohio is by far my favorite race tracks only because as a kid my father and my neighbors dad would take us all there in his 67 Ford Ecnoline Super Van camper. I’ll never forget those days of parking down under the trees on the exit of Madness. There was one SCCA race where a driver spit a belt and pulled off the track and we started yelling over the fence we have tools so we handed him the wrenches he needed and got him back on the track. He later came down and thanked us and had a few beers and went on his way. Those are the memories you never forget!🍻

    These SGT videos are the reason I subscribed way back when. Vipers are definitely my favorite modern car by as much as Lee was clear from anyone behind him early on in the race! Love listening the V10 in car shots. I know these vids dont get the views that others with Cleetus or Soccer Mom get but I look forward to these the most. Hopefully you keep them coming Kevin.

    "Let's jump on with Lee and see how wet it is". That glossy wet means it's not just slick, it's like ice. Then when you get a few rivers running across the track, look out! Would have been cool to see a shot of what a TA Pirelli wet looks like.
