    Not very good quality crappy old Gopro original camera on a suction base(turn down your audio) but you get the idea. First session..feely touchy…there were a few race teams there checking out the track..that Porsche GT3 Cup car blew by me like I was in my Focus..! Great place..can't wait for some curbing and grass.

    The power of an Atom is a terrible thing to waste! Atom owner/operator since 2007. The more you chase perfection,the faster it becomes. John Force for President! (I asked him once in person...he laughed)

    First race event at the track…if you ever get up this way and want to run it..email me…this is a MUST DO track for any driver who enjoys a challenge. You will be tired and fulfilled by the end of a day…

    Nice way to spend an 80 degree sunny day in …New England…out on Whiskey Hill for an open lapping/instructing day! 4 full hrs. of quality seat time at speed with NO traffic..none. ZIP. nada.. Nirvana.

    Max was very happy…ran great..this is a perfect track for the Atom.

    Magic on the Mountain! I'm trying to buy some real estate off to the right of turn 6…seriously… Ha!

    Driving Paradise! Yes indeed! Another 80 degree day and sunny! Perfect Atom weather and a great way to spend my 57th birthday.
    COMs (Corvettes of Massachusetts) second Whiskey Hill time trial race event. Pure on track excitement. 214 attendees over two days. Lots of fun. Took Max on new tires and ran a 1:46 which beat the Super Unlimited track record by two seconds. No issues..lots of laps..used up fuel and a little bit of tires and brakes. Great time. Love my Ariel Atom2…aka…MadMax. Whiskey Hill too!

    Whiskey Hill, done in a hurry; with beautiful music. Listen for him trying to rotate the car in turn 2 by lifting on the throttle. Yes,he can do it. If I did that...I'd be backwards at over 90mph.....!

    This gives you an idea of the elevation changes at Whiskey Hill. Turn 4 looking down and the summit is actually another 100 feet up!

    Cool photo of Whiskey Hill… at the summit, it turns right in turn 6 down into turns 7-8,which you don't see in the photo..and at the bottom of the photo you don't see turns 1-2 or 3.. this place is paradise! The last few weeks they have been adding concrete curbing..it should be even better next year!
