Thunderhill Raceway

Sweltering Midsummer Endurance Test with Technik Competition

WILLOWS, CA

With temperatures well in excess of 90 degrees, the Technik Competition team and Matt headed to Thunderhill Raceway in the middle of June for an extended endurance test in preparation for the 25 Hours of Thunderhill.

The primary objective of the two day test was to gather technical tire data through extended stints, as well as collect AiM driving data from each driver for analysis.

Matt tested alongside team owner and driver Sean Neel, as well as team co-principle Matt Kehoe.

Overall, mostly every objective was met in over 7 hours of on-track testing time. The team gained as much tire data as possible, driving three sets of Hoosiers and BFGoodrich Tires to the cords. In between sessions, the team made large strides in understanding AiM driver data, ultimately leading to a sharpened idea on how to drive Thunderhill faster while in an endurance mindset.
