Team 60
Kudos to Walter, Nancy and the CMRA staff for pulling the inaugural Team-60 race! This was a really unique event that turned out to be tremendous fun and great racing. What a great event to have on Saturday!
Despite a mechanical during my stint that cut it short, I still had a fantastic time in the race. The format is a hoot, and the LeMans start was surprisingly sane. I think everyone enjoyed the race, and certainly the spectators were treated to something unique and special in terms of race format.
Looking forward to the next one!

I watched a few videos of the start and I hate that I missed it! Looked like it was a ton of fun.

+1 to everything Jim stated above. It was fun to participate in such a unique format, and the Brownie that I taped to the windscreen, really helped my teammate get to his bike like Flash Gordon. Can't wait for the next T60 at Hallett!

I was able to get up close and watch the start from the wall... Very cool, what looked to be total chaos, got off w/t a hitch.. Well done folks...:hail:

It went too smoothly and drama free. Cut the change-over window in half.

Ok, going to post on here as well. It was me that jumped the start. I was watching Walter go through the numbers after he got to 1/2 I took off and did not wait for the horn because I wasn't sure they were synched. My mistake. Had issues getting started anyways. Truly sorry everyone.

Not a big deal, Zach. It was the first T60 for everyone and probably the first LeMans start for everyone running. Throw in a fairly new system requiring two signals to start, and someone is bound to jump :burnout:

I'm just sitting here in Monday with a huge smile on my face about that Team 60. What a fun format and what a great race.
Roger -- why less pit time? Pit was about half crazy! Of course, I was there fumbling with that darn transponder in race gloves...
