Evans shocked by WRC intensity

Elfyn Evans admits he was shocked at the intensity of stepping up to a full World Rally Championship campaign. The Welshman made his full-time factory debut with M-Sport on last week’s series opener in Monte Carlo. While the 24-year-old finished an excellent sixth overall, he said he was astonished by how difficult the event had been. “Everything is so intense at this level,” Evans said. “I thought I had an idea of what it would be like, but it’s definitely going up again. “I knew it would be tough, but it just demands so much – you just never stop thinking about it. “That’s because there is so much to think about with the weather, the tyres, the set-up, everything. “All of the time – in service, in the car, [...]

Carroll Shelby and the Avengers

One of my heroes passed this past weekend. Carroll Shelby died at age 89.
I don’t want to recap Shelby’s life in this post. Others have written that story over the past several days. The truth is, I’m a little late to be writing an epitaph on the man. From the moment that I heard the [...]

Red Sox Hall County 30

BRASELTON, GEORGIA – A week removed from a flag-to-flag victory for Brad Vincent on Montreal?s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, the teams and drivers of Red Sox Racing?s RUF Track Challenge makes the trip south from Canada to Georgia?s Road Atlanta. The two racing facilities couldn?t be any more different. Where Montreal?s race took place on a flat, man-made island with its walled-in layout dictated by the limits of the available land, Road Atlanta?s ribbon of asphalt seems to meander up and downhill over Georgia?s red clay just as nature intended. Well, assuming nature intended to grow a 2.54-mile, 12-turn road course, anyway.
