SCCA Article: Boehm Becomes Two-Time STU Runoffs Champ at VIR

11/13/2019

Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) posted their recap of the 2019 STU National Championship Runoffs event. 

Kevin Boehm, of Marysville, Ohio, was the defending Super Touring® Under (STU) National Champion coming into this year’s Runoffs® at VIRginia International Raceway. And earlier this week, despite a small setback, he earned the Tire Rack Pole Award and led a 25-car field to the start.

While Boehm, driving the No. 90 HPD/Carbotech/Red Line Oil Honda Civic, bobbled a bit at the start of Saturday’s 15-lap race around VIR’s 18-turn, 3.27-mile circuit, he quickly recovered and marched away to a 25-second victory. This is Boehm’s second consecutive National Championship in the STU class, and fourth Championship overall.

“I think this is the first year everything went to plan,” said Boehm, who also set a new STU lap record during the race. “I expected Elivan to get a better start since his car is so light and so good.  But then I went to work from there. This was an absolute perfect car for this track.”

Adding Thermocouples to the Race Car's Brake Pads

9/30/2019

Comments

 
The SCCA National Championship Runoffs is coming up, so I decided to install fresh Carbotech brake pads. This time, I also added thermocouples to all the outside pads so I can better understand the temperature range while on the race track. This will help make sure the load compounds I've chosen are correct.

In the gallery above, see the new brake pads before and after installation on the Civic Type R Swap race car.  The additional images give more background on the thermocouples themselves:
  • Table image: There are many types of thermocouples--I chose the Type K.
  • Graph image: Type K thermocouples are the most common.
  • Brake pad thermocouple image: This comes with a slug on the end so it can be pressed into a hole drilled into a pad.
  • Brake pad image: This is what it looks like after the thermocouples are installed.
