EVENT RECAP : Round 7

The “Showdown” at Texas Motor Speedway was a hot one and seeing the amount of dedication in each team is like nothing else we get to experience. Team RAD had its challenges with yet another new layout this year but of course we leave the event going back home with more data than before! Dan found himself learning additional techniques in order to get the Supra in the precise zones at this track. He managed to better his score by 11 points in his second qualifying run. In Top 32; Dan battled Japanese driver, Kazuya Taguchi! Dan wasn’t able to get the Supra in the right spot at the right time in his chase run but threw down a beautiful and entertaining lead run leaving the crowd with “Whoooaaaa!” in the stands. With Dan at fault in the chase run, Taguchi took the win.

– THE FINAL ROUND OF THE SEASON IS ONLY THREE WEEKS AWAY – Team RAD will be entering Round 8 at Irwindale Speedway with confidence because each of your companies that have been behind us all season!
