Considering this is the first lap, we wonder what the rest of the race looked like.
In this evenly matched installment of the NASA Racing Gear Store Operated by OG Racing Move of the Month, the driver of the camera car, NASA Mid-Atlantic Spec3 driver Ross Shull captures the first one and a half laps of a race in which leaders Jon McAvoy and Taylor Johnson spend so much time next to each other, it looks as much like they are trying to be next-door neighbors as it does trying to take the lead. And sometimes, these two neighbors are living on a zero lot line!
The funny thing is, McAvoy and Johnson are typically side by side on the first half of the track, where there is the least amount of room. On the back straight, Johnson gets the lead on lap one. When Shull catches back up to them as they enter the Lower Esses, McAvoy and Johnson go right back to being neighborly again. Shull gets a run on McAvoy coming out of the fast and scary Turn 10, and gets the inside line going into Oak Tree. Looks like fun.
