Dan Giannotti owns and drives an awesome LM. He’s one of Corvairdom’s biggest racing crusaders. Today’s CPotD of his beautifully prepared car at speed is a testament that he does more than just promote – he practices what he preaches.
This post is a good segue into the amusing results of the NECC’s recent track event. Sadly, I was unable to make it Monticello Motor Club, but true to form, a few participants quickly wrote up their experiences and posted them on Fastvairs. The track was dry though the practice and the early timed runs. Unfortunately, the skies opened and drenched the track right about fifteen minutes after hot laps began. Most of the Corvairs and one waterpumper (non-Corvair) were able to make their runs before the deluge. After the rain started, the cars couldn’t run anywhere near their potential and lap times dropped significantly. In the end, a VERY unlikely car sat at the top of the waterpumper results. A Toyota Yaris had beaten a mix of hot cars that included BMWs, Mitsubishi EVOs, a ‘vette, a Porsche, and a Maserati.
