Walt Woltosz and Red Bull Drive Day

            One of the team’s most prominent sponsors, Walt Woltosz, had the opportunity to drive the 2006 car last Thursday.  Walt was in town for the annual Engineering Alumni Council Meetings, so the team invited him to tour the shop and take a test drive.  Faced with impending storms Walt took the wheel and managed to out-drive a third of the Formula team.  The CEO of Simulations Plus has a big background in club racing including spec RX-7’s and it showed.  After a couple of easy laps Walt drove 15 to 20 clean, smooth laps that were actually quite fun for us to watch. 

            Kyle Cooper, Red Bull’s student representative at Auburn, also drove.  While obviously not as experienced as Walt, Kyle was no slouch for a first timer.  We hope that Walt and Kyle had a fun and we look forward to their future support!
