Read MoreSlipAngle /// Episode 392 - GLTC-Spec Porsche Cayman and KMiata at COTA - The Winning Formula
Abrin Schmucker
Episode 392 - We’re at the track with the boys from The Winning Formula. Aaron Leichty is debuting his PDK-equipped Porsche Cayman in GLTC Spec, and Emile Tabb is enjoying a new BMW MK60 ABS upgrade to his KMiata. Both of these cars are well thought out, and seriously quick on any given race weekend. Aaron talks about the pros and cons of the Porsche in this trim. Despite sitting in pole position for Race 1 with a 2:29.303, that time was not the fastest lap recorded in the weekend. A 2:28.980 set by Eric Kutil in Race 3 took the top spot. Emile talks about the changes to the car in the offseason, and how much extra confidence he has in the brake zones with the new upgrades. Overall, Aaron finished first in points for the weekend, with Emile finishing second. A great weekend for the team, and an excellent start to a 2021 race season. A full write-up of the weekend’s results is available at grid.life.

Abrin Schmucker
Episode 391 - Jackie Ding is about as far into time attack as you can get. He’s got dozens of events on his 2021 racing calendar, while also trying to run a new business, PhD Racing Lab. Abe catches up with Jackie at Super Lab Battle USA at Circuit of the Americas in March of 2021 to talk about all the things that have happened in the last 12 months. Jackie had just set a SLB Street Class record of 2:17.341. That’s more than 5 seconds improvement on his already impressive 2020 record of 2:22.508. Listen to the show, and enjoy the fast lap video, that Jackie produced specifically for us at TrackTuned.
