mansier Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Frank Barba and the reptile racing Viper just showed up to BeaveRun Motorsports Complex to challenge Bruce Graham in the Mansier Motorsports Corvette for the VVC1 title. Should be a great match up! Come by and take a look August 30-31. Also, Earl Beam brought his new VVCX car (soon to be dynoed at VVC1) to run Sunday. This could be the beginning of a beautiful thing!

mansier Posted September 4, 2003 Author Share Posted September 4, 2003 Frank was driving the green 1995 Viper, and Bruce Graham the 1978 Corvette. Earl Beam in a C5. Bruce and Earl took the checker on Saturday, with Bruce in front. Sunday Frank and Bruce were bringing their qualifying times way down. Frank was down to a 1:05 and Bruce in the 1:06's. This was Bruce's first weekend in the car, and his laps went: 1:08.1 1:07.4 1:06.5 Then Bruce hit the wall on the inside of Turn 8, and did some real damage to the corvette. No doubt he was on his way to a 1:05 time. Frank started the race, and held off the American Iron polesitter for about 5 laps. After this, he cooled it realizing he did not have to run so hard to take home the crown. Congratulations to both Frank and Bruce for their wins!

FrankBarba Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 What a great event. Thanks Lawrence. Looking forward to a few more of these VVC races with NASA. I am thinking of driving the Green Meanie in the Endurace at Beaver in a few weeks. What do you think? Can i get someone to sponsor some tires? Brake Pads, and a set of Rotors?
