HRE Wheels Open House July 31

Hi Folks,

We will have an awesome opportunity for you to get an inside look at how HRE's are made and to talk to your fellow enthusiasts at our open house on July 31. Hope you can make it!

Looks like the HRE sponsored GT-R finished up in 4th place at the Ultimate Track Car challenge yesterday. Still a VERY fast time, particularly given temps of 100 degrees.
I have met the guy who finished in 8th place and I know he drives a full-on race prepped Ferrari.
Curious to know what the top 3 cars were.

It was a great time, but it was VERY hot. The heat was one thing, but the humidity was out of control. I met your buddy with the Ferrari. Very nice car.

Overall I believe Sharif was fourth. 2nd in his class.

On Saturday at the NASA race, the heat was worse and it was definitely taking its toll on the cars.

I must say VIR is a very impressive facility. It would be so nice to have something in So Cal like VIR.
