We are back from Thompson, CT where both cars had a respectable showing in the new BracketGP race format. The new format made for some exciting race action in the paddock as well as the driver's seat. This is certainly a series we will be following in the future.

The extreme heat caused one of our GoPros to die, but the other recorded the full event. Below are links to the playlists for each car:

Misc Notes:
- ChampCar and Lemons races are setup nicely for friends and family to have fun exploring the track and paddock.
- The Lemons races are known for their crazy teams and themes. Its a spectacle to see.
- We will be taking photos throughout the weekend, and all in-car action will be recorded so you have a memento of your experience.
- We are bringing two cars to the events so there will be plenty of action and some great teammates for everyone to meet.
- There will be about 110 cars on track for the Lemons race, and probably about 50 for the ChampCar event. The more open track at ChampCar is great for fast lap times and top speeds, but the busy track at Lemons is just as fun for the action in traffic.

And lastly, if you aren't sure you are ready to race, try a track night instead! We can meet you at any of the Thompson events listed here to show you the ins and outs of racing and give you a feel for the car. https://www.tracknightinamerica.com/
