Yeah I remember last year with Lee sternly warning us about crossing the double yellow. We make a few runs and I thought we were going seriously fast. I was really impressed with the speed the guys in front were going. Then Epi posts the video and you can see all the front guys, Epi and Lee included we WAY over the line. No wonder they coudl keep that speed. I guess some things don't change ...

Can I make a fashionably late entry? I can't wait to meet everyone. No tickets that weekend and whoever drives back with me

this year i was much better about lane crossing (and by lane crossing, i mean getting all or part of one tire over the line, never the entire car [except at night lol])...i know this because last year my DSC only activated when I got a wheel on the paint, and this year there was considerably less DSC activity. i did have better tires this time, as did feras (once we scraped the noodles off his treads lol)

in honesty it's best to say NEVER CROSS THE LINE but in reality (and lee can attest) there is a handful of place where you can take liberty

yeah those noodles were wierd, but you stepped it up a notch this year it took every inch of my driving to keep up with ya, lets just say my DSC was quite active. Im signing up for some autocross before next year, coz you'll be outmodding me too by then lol i might as well get better at driving.

I vote for closing it in opposing directions next year. IE - at night, we send someone up, essentially making a run, and when they get to the other end, they stop all oncoming traffic, and then everyone makes a run for it! This should be feasible if we have police34! :D Just wishful thinking I suppose!
