@varcracing.com position heat map for Chicagoland

@varcracing.com Chicagoland

After a long night in aerodynamic purgatory, the team brought home some solid points to carry on to Snetterton. Shoutout to Brody for putting up a hell of a Q lap, starting in 5th. He put the wheel up.

71: P4
37: P8
77: P17
95: P23

Mason Fleischauer (#06) passes Jason Fellenbaum (#57, blue) in the late stages of the VARC National Series VII race at Chicagoland.

He had to hold off pole-sitter Stephen Moore for most of the night but Mason Fleischauer becomes the 10th winner at 10 tracks by crossing the line first at Chicagoland!

The points chase is tight with six races to go.

@varcracing.com Edwin cheated and I finished 10th with a 1st place car. Which is an improvement on 11th with a 1st place car.

LATE EDITION:

3th

@varcracing.com Chicagoland

Q: 11
R: 4

For the first time in a long time I will say that was not a fun one. Car drove like a dump truck and the aerowash was so bad you could lose 5 spots at the drop of a hat. Ran mid pack in the hornets nest all day and stole a P4 on strategy.

Snetterton next!

75 and 57 battle closely door to door in the turn.

That @varcracing.com was not the type of race I enjoy. Had a penalty, stuck in the back. Every time I got track position it disappeared. Made me stay out on 30 lap old tires with 20 to go and just try to hold on to as much as I could. Battled my teammate hard and ended up p6. Dylan got the top 5.

Francis: P7
Carson: P9
Gavin: P15
Andrew: P25
Edwin: DQ, P5 @ CHECKERED

TRIPLE 10S (AT THE LINE) AGAIN!!! The pack racing nature made it tough to pass, but still fun regardless.

ONTO SNETTERTON

Post race graphic from the VARC race at Chicagoland. I started 6th and "finished" 22nd

oh no look at what he did!!! @varcracing.com

Started: P5
Finished: P18

Had top 5 speed, but also had my head in my ass the whole race. My Mirror was nonexistent, my situational awareness was awful. First time I had actual pace, and I still have so, so much to learn. @varcracing.com

Made my @varcracing.com national series debut tonight!

Started p19

Undercut the field from p13ish to p4 during the first green flag pit cycle

Made a 2 tire call before an 18 to to restart and burnt the right front off bringing it home p12

Super competitive race and tons of fun! Excited for Snet

Thanks Colby.

What a baffling fucking season. @varcracing.com

The boy earns his first @varcracing.com win of the season!

Car looked amazing. I did not. It's been a tough @varcracing.com season

"Did you make a race day post?"
"...Oh, sh-"

This site is broken as hell but you know what site does work? @varcracing.com ! There’s even a VARC National Series server at Chicagoland starting right now wow

@varcracing.com INDY 300

Colby and Kite ran up front most of the race but fell victim to incidents and fuel mileage respectively, Chandler held out in a *literal* tornado for a top 5, and Brody learned a lot in his first Indycar start to carry to the future.

37: P3
95: P5
71: P10
77: P14

Post-race graphic from the 7th annual VARC Indianapolis 300. I started 13th and won the race. Fuel mileage???

@varcracing.com INDY 300

Q: 3
R: 10

This race is a banger. Swapped on and off for the lead literally the entire time, had some fuel strategy games at the end, and then with 12 to go got sent to the shadow realm by a lapped car. Bad break, but hey I had fun.

Started: P15
Finished: P14 DNF

This doesn't look healthy! @varcracing.com

Came up JUST SHORT of defending my Indy 300 crown! I can't stress enough how much I look forward to this specific race every season. Saved just enough fuel!

Most importantly, my power didn't get knocked out by the storms! @varcracing.com

STARTED: 4th
FINISHED: 2nd (-0.156)
LAPS LED: 7/120

Drew Glover (#92) passes Kyle Pokrefky (#7) in the late innings of the 7th VARC Indianapolis 300.

The 7th VARC Indianapolis 300 goes green for a long time to end the race and the fuel mileage comes into play! It's @mooncraft.racing with a pass within the last ten laps to win at Indy!!

1. DREW!!

I looked great plowing the wall out of turn 2. @varcracing.com

Dirty air is real, kids.
