The DallasNSX group / Dead Ass Last Racing team has been working overtime on the latest foray into national (and maybe international) competitions. Our plans are still a bit fuzzy... maybe it's the margaritas doing that, but the Tex-Mex powered NSXs from Dallas are sure to cause quite a stir somewhere, somehow...
Our first entry was the Big Bend open road race in Fort Stockton, Texas. Captain Marc Weinberg jumped ship and moved to the badlands of California, but we managed to get navigator and master mechanic Brent Cobb to split from defending our country in the Air Force and move on up to Dallas from San Antonio to take charge of things.
Out next entry will be from our very own Jon York from Rockwall... he is entering a fully race prepped NSX (and the only NSX) in Car & Driver's One Lap of America next month. Jon has been working tirelessly for the last dew months at his exotic car facility in Florida, and has been testing the car at tracks whenever possible, most recently at Homestead. Details about the race conversion of the car will be available somewhere, sometime soon... suffice it to say that about the only thing that didn't get done was the installation of a 4.2L GT engine, which will have to wait until after One Lap.
Details about the One Lap event can be found here:

Jon has given his second seat in the car for the event to Armand Puig, a renowned European GT driver from Spain. Between the top-notch driver and the top-notch car (of course), we expect that Jon will give the other teams a run for their money.
The "DallasNSX" group, Science of Speed and Eurosport Racing Group are the major "supporters & sponsors" of Jon and Armand's efforts. The Science of Speed website will have daily updates on the events and Jon & Armand's progress from May 3rd to 11th. SoS's update page isn't yet "public"... but we trust it will be revolutionary.
For NSX owners, trackjunkies and speed freaks local to the Dallas / Fort Worth area, we welcome you to come out and see Jon and Armand represent Texas (and Spain, I suppose) at the following tracks:
Hallett Motor Racing Circuit - Hallett, Oklahoma: Sunday, May 5th from 14:00-19:30
Texas World Speedway - College Station, Texas: Wednesday, May 8th from 08:00-15:00
