/24-7PressRelease/ - WILLOW SPRINGS, CA, February 22, 2008 - Chris Rado and his WORLD Racing team were in full effect at Willow Springs International Motorsports Park for the National Auto Sport Association time trial season opener. This event brought out almost 250 racecars ranging in variety all the way from Pro Trucks to Super Unlimited Cars to Honda Challenge Cars to dual motorcycle-engine powered full-chassis cars.
Chris came to this event with the intentions of dusting off and testing his 650 hp Scion tC in order to make proper adjustments to the changes made since the car was last run in August at Road Atlanta. It's amazing what just a little dusting can do - Chris jumped in his tC and broke his own FWD Unlimited Class time trial record of 1.29.34 seconds. Not only did he break the record, but he basically poured gasoline on it, lit a match, and watched it explode when he set the new Willow Springs FWD track record of 1.27.30 - more than a two second improvement!
The WORLD Racing Scion tC ran three full sessions over the weekend - two on Saturday and one on Sunday. The team had a late start Saturday while pushing to get the car aligned, weight balanced, and ready for its driver. Commenting on his record breaking time, Chris says, "I know the car has another two or three seconds faster in it. With a little more test time over this weekend, I know we could have done it."
Breaking the FWD record was not the only achievement of the weekend for WORLD Racing. Chris and his Scion tC won the "bragging rights" as the fastest time of a production vehicle all weekend!
For the 2008 season, Chris will be running his Scion tC for the Super Lap Battle Series where he will be competing with some of the best drivers of the nation. Chris looks forward to the challenge and he and his team are very optimistic they will set more track records in the exciting season to come.
"All in all it was a great weekend," says Chris. "This is a great start for myself and WORLD racing - we are extremely excited and hungry for more wins! I am lucky to have the support of amazing sponsors, fans, family and friends - they are the true backbone behind the great season to come!"
