Forged Performance: Flat Out Motorsports Private Track Weekend

[CHADbee]

This past Friday the Forged Performance motorsports team headed to Savannah GA to spend some time on Roebling Road. We loaded up or two car hauler with the Forged Performance 996 GT3, a client's Nissan GT-R and made the four hour trip comfortably in our F-450 tow rig. After grabbing some dinner with friends we made our way back to the hotel to get some much needed rest for what what was sure to be a tiring but amazing weekend ahead. This particular event was held by Flat Out Motorsports, which is a fairly new company ran by two long time friends and customers of ours that specialize in giving people like us the track time we desperately crave. This was their first event at Roebling Raceway and the quality of cars participating were top notch and the groups had some very fast drivers. Lamborghini, Porsche, Nissan, Mercedes, and many others were well represented. With only 40 cars and 4 run groups everyone was able to see more than enough track time to satisfy there desire to go fast.

The Flat Out Motorsports event was professional and top notch all the way. It was hard to believe this was their first organized track day, as the level of organization, instruction, and safety would easily rival a more experienced track day organizer. Sharif was asked to lead the classroom instruction session before the novices hit the track. With laptop and power point presentation in hand, he has a unique ability for making complex driving theory really easy to understand and digest.

Roebling Road is an often overlooked track in our neck of the woods, but it's high speeds and flowing corners provide a great opportunity to test and setup our cars.....and scare the crap out of passengers. Sharif even let Alex@Forged run a couple of sessions in the GT3 to get his feet wet in a "real" race car. Check back on our blog soon for more news on upcoming Flat Out Motorsports events. Word on the street, is that Sebring is locked in for 2012!

Those cars are a blast, but hands down one of the scariest cars you will ever drive on a track. 50% of my "stained underwear hall of fame" is from those cars.

Quote from Clarkson testing the later model Viper on Top Gear: "Driving this is like going out with a really good mate. A good laugh, always up for a party, the trouble is he does like to kill people with axes occasionally."

I'd also like to drive that car. Sexy. I was always a big Oreca fan when they ran the Vipers.

But, Viper 97-98 Viper Coupe will be my next purchase in the next 12 months.

Chad,

Ed (if we are talking about skinny Ed) was just learning the ropes last year, but showed a lot of potential. I was working with him for a bit and he got fast in just one day. I was impressed with the car too.
