Damn, today was a blast even though I broke my front lip on the one cone that i hit. I might have to just go ahead and sign up for the 4th, i'll have to talk to my boss and get the day off hmm, we'll see

and thanks for the compliments i just wish i had known about the tires getting greasey because i had noticed my car was getting extremely loose near the end, however it was a tad more fun that way at times. I think it's about time to swap out the d-series though, there were quite a few times today where i definitely could have used some more power

My best clean run for the day was a 63.3

I'll try and get a video up of my runs sometime this week, the only problem though is that it's gonna be a large ass file. ALso, i saw a few others with cameras taping alot of the event, where would I need to go to see those videos?

THanks for those that helped me out and explained stuff to me, and gave me some pointers. it was definitely a great time

Thanks to everybody who came out. It was a fun day! Sorry we only got 8 runs in, but the course was bigger/longer than usual. See you on the 4th!

I tow-roped him back to the paddock area during cone cleanup time, no idea what happened to the car or whether he got it running again. Cool car though
