THECar podiums in Korea

 

Our Korean Team Driver Ryan Lee has recently attended the Serpent Korea Cup held at the Jungwang track in Suwon City. The track of the Korean Championships 2011.

 

The race was rather successful for the JQ team, with THECars in the A Final. Here is a short report by Ryan:

 

81 drivers including Korean top drivers competed for the win, the wind was very strong with lots of dust,·ski goggles+masks were·must have item to survive for the race. My·engine coulnd't make enough speed·due to some leaking that I couln't find a specific reason so I changed everything I could do such as fuel lines/tanks etc! Luckily, My engine·revs·okey from Semi final.·All went okey with short time lead&few mistake. I started from 7th grid position for the shortened·main final, only-20min due to the delayed schedule. I know I'm a slow starter so I really needed a good start! I did a clean·start, I was·already·in No.2 spot after few corner but·It·didn't take a long time·until I found my tire choice was bad! I should have stayed with same tires as in the Semi final,-Exagon! I tried to keep my position. Sunset had begun,·track was getting dark quickly,it was very difficult to see my car for last few minutes! So I·controlled my car very carefully·and just managed to take 3rd position! For this race, I used center diff outdrives for the front diff. They are little bit shorter than front ones! I like it!
