After that at MidOhio saw 12 Challenge cars nose-to-tail creating some exciting racing the whole weekend. In between the two SummitPoint events Kevin Eves and I went down to Florida to help upgrade Ed Boothman’s FFR#85 to ES trim upgrading brakes/engine/suspension and then testing the car at Sebring, FL. From then on it was two times at Summit Point. Andy Cole and Bob Kay slaved over my engine getting it working with a head swap at the track and I was able to make Sunday’s race. Road Atlanta saw me sidelined for the Enduro and Saturday’s race in FFR#48 but both Car Thompson and Scott McKay were kind enough to let me drive their cars during the Enduro. With that in hand I was able to apply for a NASA racing license and did my first race at VIR (at the time the FFR Nationals 2005 finished 10th.) I completed my 4 rookie races at Summit Point in Oct 2005.Ģ006 season saw the first full season of racing starting with MidOhio in April, WatkinsGlen in May, BeaveRun in June, Hyperfest at Summit Point in July, Limerock in August, MidOhio in August, and back to MidOhio in September for NASA Nationals 2006 (finished 6th).Ģ007 season started with MidOhio in April, BeaveRun in May, Hyperfest at Summit Point in June, Pocono in July, Limerock in August, MidOhio in August, back to MidOhio in September for NASA Nationals 2007 (finished 5th), and finishing with WatkinsGlen in October.Ģ008 started at VIR in February with a 3hr endurance race where I finished 3rd in the E0 class, Road Atlanta in March with another 3 hr endurance race, Sebring in June driving Ed Boothman’s FFR #85, Pocono in July, MidOhio in August, and back to MidOhio in September for NASA Nationals 2008 (finished 3rd.) I also had the privilege of being part of Team Racing 4 A Reason 2 running Ed Boothman’s FFR #85 in the NASA’s 25hr race at Thunderhill 2008 where we finished 27th overall (out of 68 competitors) and 11th in E0 class (out of 18 competitors.)Ģ009 was an eventful year starting and ending with engine troubles in two different cars. Now that I had a race car, I needed to learn how to race, in July 2005 I attended the SkipBarber Racing School at Limerock, CT and came out with a provisional SCCA license. Taking 1 1/2 years to complete FFR #4706SP was on the road July 2005.
