Round 2 of Georgia at Road Atlanta Empty Round 2 of Georgia at Road Atlanta

Post by f1fan May 30th 2017, 2:54 am

OOC: Don't worry, this race won't be up for a bit. 


Competition Director Jacobs issues stern warnings ahead of Road Atlanta


As seen after the Round of Florida, the new ARCSOA administration team isn't afraid to hand out penalties. The series is now embarking on the race that typically sees the most attrition of the year, Road Atlanta. The new competition director Jacob Jacobs issued a stern warning for the drivers ahead of Road Atlanta. "We will not tolerate misbehavior on track. Stupid incidents will be punished. Ignoring blue flags will earn you a points penalty. I do not care who you are, the rules apply to everyone." 

There is a feeling around the paddock that Road Atlanta will probably see the largest group of penalties leaving a race, simply because the attrition rate is so high for the 130 miles around the track.

Safety First got to applaud the officials for taking actions against it. Never want to see anyone's race ruined by a silly incident.

Shepherd grabs pole, Team NOPEA Finland fails tech inspection, starts in rear.


Aidan Shepherd scored the Grand Prix of Road Atlanta pole. Narrowly beating out the Myatt brigade of Kenny and Madeline in 2nd and 3rd. There was only 0.10 seconds separating the top 4 with Georgia native Noah Hart starting 4th. However, the two fastest cars on the grid were the NOPEA Finland cars. They were a clear second faster than everyone else. However, post race tech inspections found that the ballast in both cars were not measured correctly, and both cars were underweight. Both cars will be starting in the rear of the field.

Kenny: Props to Vince Freeze for grabbing 6th on the grid in the under-powered Team Reddit-Davis car. If he had a better car, he would have been on pole. He has great track presence for Road Atlanta. This kid is going to be a star.

I appreciate the comment Mr. Kenny Myatt on my qualifying effort to get that compliment from a legend means a lot, but thanks to my team yes we're underfunded, but the guys who work on the 05 and 24 are working to develop this S23 car and I know we can make this happen as a team.

Kenny: 20 wins! Nick (Mace) is the only other driver to ever score 20. What a place to do it as well. Road Atlanta is my favorite track on the schedule. Plus, I have Maddie next to me on the podium. I am so happy about this race. 

Maddie: I tried everything I had to catch dad, but I couldn't seem to chase him down. I felt bad for Grayson (Acevedo). I didn't mean to come out of the pits like that. Dad had the better car, I couldn't chase him down. Glad that my first 2nd place was a loss to my father. I will get that first win soon.

I am annoyed. I am pissed. The racing for 2nd and 3rd between Shepherd and Hart pissed me off. I had gotten myself into the Top 10 and had a great car, but they raced way too hard and I was just an innocent bystander. I am glad to see points penalties handed out, but they truly deserve more than just that.

I spent the rest of the race hanging out with the 99 team and I noticed a young driver that caught my eye. Vince Freeze in that underfunded 05 Reddit-Davis car. He put it on row 3 for qualifying and had a Top 10 run going for him before he found the extremely aggressive Hart. A great finish for the kid and I hope they can pull off better finishes as well. Well done to them.

Reddit-Davis Racing post race notes

Davis: "This is amazing. We never expected Freeze to qualify that well. 6th only on his (and our) 2nd start is amazing.He may not have had the power as the front runners, but he made up for at least half of that by staying in the Top 10 for most of the day. Very proud of his efforts and now very excited going into Phoenix.

"We're getting a lot of comments about Eric and his antics as a lapped car. We are attempting to work with him to be able to fix this issue. He's a good kid and much help for us developing the cars and the team, but the way he acts in race conditions is a tad disheartening. Perhaps we'll get some change soon.

"All-in-all, we're truly impressed with how these cars are running and we're now gearing up for Phoenix."

Noah Hart: 15 points penalty? That's awful hefty for a guy that made an honest mistake! We made our FBR cars where they can have insane speeds as they sweep through the corners and man our cars were fast. I had made passes in the S's a lot before. I just misjudged it. I apologize to Myatt and Freeze for getting into them but no other racing series I've ever seen has penalized a driver championship points from a plain racing deal. I'll admit trying to pass in that corner is ballsy and probably shouldn't of been the place to make a pass but that's why I make my passes there! Because nobody expects it. It was my home race and I've had this track down pat I figured we'd have a shot to win but I made an honest MISTAKE just racing for position. Myatt brought it home for the team. Congratulations to him man 20 wins is an insane number.

Noah Hart: As for the contact with Shepherd, it was early in the race and on a road course it can be challenging to make a clean pass. I had him set up before we entered "Death Valley" and when he slid up I went for the pass. I had my nose to his inside and clearly had the position underneath him but he was dead set on blocking on lap 2 or whatever it was. We had a long race and I can only go so low until you just spin yourself. If you're gonna block that's what's going to happen especially when it's that early in the race.

14th: I am very happy today because I continue to beat out my teammate and that a 14th Place finish is a very nice finish towards the season. Pretty mad at Charles for taking me out early in the race, bounced back to 14th anyway.
