Big shouts out to Joe out in Texas! Joe has been customizing his tC2 over the past couple of months with lots of Descendant parts! We wanted to share some pictures of his ride with you and look forward to seeing what his next modifications will be!

Thanks for all of your support!

Team WORLD Racing.

Via speedhunters.com “It takes a certain type of individual to really stand out and make a difference to the lives of others. The automotive world is no different. So this year, we dug deep and picked out a handful of individuals that stood out and made a difference in the car world. At the end of the day, an automobile is just a cold hunk of metal. It takes the beating heart of a driven and passionate personality to turn it nto something with a soul.”

Chris is honored to be considered for this gracious award! Wish him luck!!

In this final webisode from the 2011 season, Chris Rado and WORLD Racing head to Infineon Raceway [Sonoma], CA] and prepare their tC2 for battle for the last Global Time Attack event of the year. Be sure to add our Youtube Channel for updates and information on the 2012 season.

In this continuation of WORLD Racing’s final week of the 2011 season, the team battles it out at the SUPER LAP BATTLE [Buttonwillow, CA]. Scott Stanwood, Gary Kubo and Eric Plebani work out some of the gremlins on the car and notice vast improvements in the tC2 through the Bus Sttop and Talledega. Chris Rado lays down some great numbers in the car and the boys prep for their final Global Time Attack race of the year in Sonoma.

As WORLD Racing begins it’s final week of racing in the 2011 season, follow Chris Rado and the team as they tackle the first leg of back-to-back events at Buttonwillow for NASA’s last SoCal race of the year. Ron Mathis makes some important aero adjustments after the first few sessions with the new tC2, Scott Stanwood notices track improvements, and Chris Rado takes 1st place in FWD.

In this webisode, Team WORLD Racing drives across the country with their newly finished FWING 2.0 to compete in the third installment of GLOBAL TIME ATTACK in Joliet, IL. Chris Rado finally gets valuable seat-time in the car and the crew gets some much needed data from the shakedown. Luckily El Cobra is on vacation, because arch nemesis Wade “Weezy” Conway makes a surprise visit to the event to settle the score once and for all….with his fists!

See FWING 2.0 in action at the next GLOBAL TIME ATTACK event 11/11/11 – 11/12/11 in Sonoma, CA /// their will be a live webcast of the event, so be sure to tune in at www.globaltimeattack.com.

It’s been a busy year for WORLD Racing. Next up on the platter is the 2,500 V-8 powered Toyota Supra that Chris has been creating in his head for the past 11 years. This is a teaser or the build, but stay tuned to speedhunters.com in the next couple weeks for an awesome announcement.

Paddock & Parking:

Everyone will be allowed two vehicles in the paddock, 1) your track vehicle and 2) a support vehicle. “Support vehicle” could be your street car, truck, etc. OR your trailer, but not both (semi tractors may stay attached to their trailers, as long as you can fit in the parking space). We will have paddock marshals and security patrolling the paddock. You will be required to move unauthorized vehicles, empty trailers, etc. to one of the parking lots. DO NOT PARK IN THE PRE-GRID AREA!

There are two paddock maps. Each one shows the details of a different part of the paddock. Please study BOTH drawings.

• Infineon Paddock-South

• Infineon GTA Paddock-North

Please note the “RESERVED PARKING” area on the Infineon GTA Paddock-North map, across from the tower entrance. It’s a 25×80 area that is labeled “Tower Officials Parking Only.” That doesn’t mean ANY official, either. This means the people that work in Race Control and T&S. Unless you are one of these people, please do not park in that space.

IMPORTANT PADDOCK RULES! Please review these very carefully, so that you and your friends may enjoy your weekend more safely and without concern of being ejected for breaking one of these simple but very strict rules: http://www.nasaproracing.com/norcal/events/paddock_rules.pdf

Sound Limit:
There is a STRICT sound limit of 103 dBA measured 50’ from the line on driver’s right, apex of T12. Attempts to fool the meter or lift will easily be detected by the track’s dedicated sound person (they hate that!). So, please prepare to adjust your muffling system if necessary. This is the same standard that has been in place for years. Nothing new here. I just felt that I should remind everyone.

Lunch Time:
Please help alleviate long wait times at the concession stand by planning on meals at other-than-peak-hours. No one wants to stand in a long line and wait for their food. As participants you will have lots of opportunity to visit the restaurant. We want everyone to enjoy all aspects of their day, which does not include standing in line for 30 minutes!

After months of late-nights and over 10,000 man hours of work, the boys at WORLD RACING are finally ready to fire up their new FWING 2.0! Follow James Lin, Scott Stanwood, Gary Kubo, Rob Cardona, Mike Alejos and Kareem El Sherif as they problem solve and prep the car for it’s first DYNO session ever, which results in some pretty impressive numbers from this Scion tC right out of the gate!

Fwing 2.0 will compete at the upcoming Super Lap Battle and Global Time Attack events in November.

After months of intense preparatory work on FWING 2.0, the World Racing team packs everything up and heads across country for the 2nd Global Time Attack event at NJ Motorsports Park.

Scott Stanwood and Eric Plebani problem solve some issues with the master cylinder after the first qualifying session, while Mike Alejos searches all over New Jersey for a much needed waste gate. In lieu of the needed part, Eric and Scott “Frankenstein” together a waste gate from some extra Turbonetics supplies on the truck . According the Christian Rado “the guys made some makeshift modifications to get the car on the road. For all intensive purposes, it worked, but the car made 51 lbs. of boost EVERYWHERE!”

The following morning, the boys get the car dialed and in the first GTA TIME ATTACK session, Rado destroys the previous FWD track record by 8 SECONDS, his best lap time a 1:05:481.

Fwing 2.0 will debut September 17th and 18th 2011 at the Global Time Attack event @ Autobahn Country Club in Joliet, IL.
