    Raced Mirage at Virginia International Raceway

    Virginia International Raceway held a charity laps event this past memorial day. I took my bone stock 2015 ES CVT out to have some fun. Honestly it was the funniest thing I have done in a long time!

    I was able to get the car up to 90mph on the straights. I did 4 session. Each session was 20 minutes long. I kept the car at wide open throttle the entire time. I had a friend and my 12 year old son in the back.

    The car did great honestly. I pushed it hard in the corners. It leaned like crazy and under steers hard but it was predictable. The tire squeal was so dam loud LOL. Those Bridgestone Ecopias were toast after the race. The car pulls to the right now. I wore those tires out. They look like I was driving on a flat tire. The car leaned and tire sidewall gave away so hard that I was driving more or less on the side of them.

    I took a few videos. Hopefully I'm attaching the links right. I have some in car video and had a few GoPro camera's. Not sure how to attach pictures of the tires but I'm trying to.
