Race Report for Viking Racing, Formula Car Challenge - Race 7/8. August 27/28th, 2011 (Indy GP Weekend) |
August 27/28th was the weekend of the annual Indy Car Grand Prix at Infineon Raceway. As the Formula Car Challenge was a featured event both days, it also meant it was Race 7/8 for me in the Formula Car Championship. Besides us and the Indy Cars, there was also historic cars, the Star Mazda Pro Championship as well as touring cars so the paddock was full and track time limited.
As such we only had one practice session before qualifying, no warm up but just the two races. At the last race here, we were running the Indy Car configuration so I knew the track but since it was 2 months back I would have preferred some more test time to get back in to the grove.

Race Report for Viking Racing, Redline Oil Karting Championship. August 14th, 2011 |
Sunday August 14th was the day of Round 5 of the Redline Oil Karting Championship. I had not been to the track after the disappointing Us Grand National experience but as I know all the different track combinations at Infineon Raceway I was comfortable I would do reasonably well without taking anything for granted.

Race Report for Viking Racing, US Rotax Grand Nationals July 18-23th, 2011 |
A year ago we decided to switch from the Rotax Masters class to the DD2 Masters class and see if we could qualify for the Rotax World Championships in Abu Dhabi later this year (The regular Rotax Masters do not have a class at the World finals). As such I sold all my karts, engines etc. and bought the DD2 shifter kart/engines instead. Now one year later it was time for the 2011 US Grand Nationals at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah and we were excited to see if a full year of preparation would pay off.
