He has to go faster than last year, but with a slower car.

We all need to add Ryan B and Dan P to our X-mas card lists.....

Overall, I think Mr. Ruth did a very fair job of adjusting this year.

+1 Hopefully as the courses get faster BS will overtake CS again.

These tight courses are for the birds!

Not sure higher speed courses are going to do anything but magnify the MS-R's better handling and smaller size...the only help at all for the '8 would be less time under 5000rpm in 2nd gear.

The more I look at PAX, the more I see a trend towards increasing speed in stock classes and a general lack of interest or development in most of the historically "hard" pax classes, like the top mods and prepareds. The other thing that it makes clear is that those same stock classes have many more data points on the right tail of the curve....

No prob Nick. It's really my co-driver Shawn's handiwork, I just put it into Courier New to make everything line-up on this forum.

I'll be co-driving Marc Pfannenschmidt's S2000CR that finished 4th (Tommy Pulliam) and 9th this year in Topeka. No more equipment excuses for me! I'm still keeping the 8 though, and will probably do some NT and Pros in it.

Cool - I've co-driven an AP1 S2000 and they're fun little cars but twitchy as hell at the limit.
