Hello Race Fans!


Its that time of year again!

Schaut Speed Racing will once again be packing a half-weeks supply of clothing, some tools, a few computers, some spare parts and a lot of Sisu into a spectacular 2008 BMW M3 sedan to spend a week driving around the country.

Sounds a little short on clothing?  Well, when you’re about to spend 3500+ miles in a car with 2 other people driving between and on some of America’s greatest tracks, space becomes a bit of a premium!

This Friday - April 30th, “Brock Yates’ One Lap of America” presented by Motortrend will once again start out from The Tire Rack in South Bend IN for a week of cruising around the country.

To see how we are doing, click on the ‘10 OLOA Results page!

    You said “a half weeks clothing”, but I did the math and you will be gone at least nine days. Are you counting on cool weather?

    Allez les Schaut! Nice looking web page, but we’re sure the racing results will be even more promising.
    Bon courage, et n’oubliez pas: keep the dirty side down.
