Matt Lang made his pro racing debut at LRP in Lakeville CT with the SPEED World Challenge Touring Car series this past memorial day weekend.
We were able to run our Honda Challenge H1 Integra Type R with a few upgrades to be a bit more competative. We were running a stock K20A with competition camshafts. This proved to be not enough HP, but we made the best of what we had. We had also switched to Moon shocks but were not able to test on them and went with the PIC Coilovers we had been racing on all year. We got to LRP on Thursday afternoon to set-up and make some minor tweaks to the car so we would be ready for the early Friday morning practice season. The 1st practice season Friday went pretty well we turned a 1:01.6 which put us last but not to far off considering it was our 1st trip to LRP. In Qualifying we made some changes and thought we would be able to cut a half second. On the 3rd lap we had a rear camber bushing fail causing Matt to hit the wall in West Bend ending his qualifying season. The Synapse Motorsport team worked hard to help repair the car for the Saturday race. We were starting second to last with Jason Martinelli and Bill Auberlen behind us. The race started ok with no drama and was running up a few spaces till lap 19 when we dropped a valve ending our day. We finished 19th of 20. It was a great learning experience and we enjoyed the professionalism of SCCA Pro Racing and SPEED. We will be back next year....
