In case you missed my 360, would have been cool if I did it on purpose. Slow in fast out didn't work so well there....lol

had a blast... Im pretty sure i didnt hit the 53 sec mark though lol. Made some suspension changes before this event, and definately worked to benefit the car's handling. I must say, whatever time I did get, I could not have squeezed any more out of it. I liked the cars the competed, a good variety and nice rides.

Did you get a yellow flag on a run? On one of my runs my wastegate line came off I signalled to the flagger on the straight that i needed to pit and took it slow back in. I saw you coming up on me when i was at the finish. That's why I jumped back in front of you after missng a run.

He stayed on track & didn't hit the timer, just went through it backwards - the time counted, but he was definitely warned. The rule reads "any 4-off, spin, or significant loss of control"... i.e. overdriving in general.

Luckily we had very few repeat offenders, and didn't have to remove anyone for driving beyond their skillset. I hate being the guy who has to enforce that rule, but it's better to have 'em pissed off at me than to have 'em take their car home smashed because the sanctioning body ignored the warning signs...

Believe me, i was pissed I spun. I would have been even more pissed if I hit the box, broke my cf lip and curbed my volks. My goal was just to stay on track, and I did.
