Default Hines Group Motorsports At Roebling Road

We will be at Roebling Road this coming weekend for the Double National. If its not terribly not, as usual, we will try to lower the lap record with our T-2 350Z. Look for our brickyard with yellow decals in the paddock and stop by and say hello.

Check the pic on the SCCA website featured Club Race! The SCCA contacted me for some RR pics and this one made it. This was from Rob's last years T2 win at Roebling.

Thanks for the heads up on the SCCA picture. That was Dave Rosenblum in his factory sponsored Subaru and we almost laped him at the end of the second race, with the manufacturers rep watching. He ran the car out of tires and our Kumho's held up as they always do. SCCA has been kind enough to run several pictures of our past cars, mostly Camaros'. We added an excellent sponsor for this year with Carbotech, a brake pad that we have used sucessfully for many years. Another great picture Mark.

Congrats Rob on winning the 1st race & setting a T2 track record. He was leading the 2nd race handily when the motor started cutting out. He wound up 2nd to a M3.

This is Rob's dad......The new lap record for T-2 is 1:20.425. Lap records for SCCA have to be set in a race to count. We actually ran a lap of 1:19.56 in qualifying. The grip on the tracks new asphalt is improved for last year and the Kumho 710 tires worked great. We use 285/30 x 18's and have some one race weekend take offs to sell if anyone is interested.

Great bunch of pictures Mark, as always. You had them in My350Z before we even arrived back home. Bob Hines

By the way the T2 field was made up of a M3, Mustang, Elise & Subi.
