Offshore Racing wasnīt designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle. It's man vs the elements, not like boats with like engines running in circles.

Always loved to look at those ironbumper C3īs ...but all C2&3īs are somewhat interesting to drive..especially pacing up.
Takes a lot of custom work to get them to handle properly, design wise one of the best in my book.Offshore Racing wasnīt designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle.

12-18-2009 08:22 PMBecause, dem's da rules, ya'll! That's nascar for ya. Might not make sense, but doesn't make sense equally for everyone... Originally Posted by MikeyFIN

12-21-2009 08:01 PMI know it pizzed off the factory backed, deep pocket Porsche and BMW teams but even after one motor change we still ran all night and finished in the top 10. And when you're running this big Monte Carlo there's nothing like passing a $1mil Porsche at dawn.
We ran a little conspicuously fast the next day when most of the teams where just trying to make it to the 25 hours. Not bad for a push rod motor!

12-21-2009 10:07 PMWay to go Lofty! You guys Team Speedzorb? 4th fastest lap time eh? Nice.
You know Ryan F. from NASA? He's my daughter's godfather. A lot of my buddies run the 25. I'm too lazy to haul my ass all the way up to Willows to mess around with it, besides I'm more of a sprint race guy.. I like to drink beers at night!
