Just need more practice. Good thing its not worse. If you pop that out you will have a slit in the plastic.

ghost....you need to get out to that little track some time. It was definately some fun and inexpensive to do. 25 bucks for the hour and we all got three sessions of 3 laps each.

Cheaper than an autocross, no work assignments afterwards....a no brainer in my book.

yeah, I know we have been that close for years now. I still ejoy when we are that close. I dont like it when either one of us beats the other by a lot.

I didnt even notice the top up once racing... I wonder if you noticed the night time more then the top? hmmm.... I dont know. jsut strange that once racing I didnt even notice, but you did.

yes, If Jesse were to get Kumhos or Hoosiers he would be faster, but I gotta say that those Dunlops he has are pretyt freakin sweet. I drove it last tiem and he had a lot of grip! i was very suprised and impressed. I don thtink there is much more then .5 - 1 second if he were to switch.

yeah, I like the competition at an autocross. MUCH tougher people to run against. real classes with real rules, electronic timers.... nice

but being one of the big fish in a small pond is fun to, no working before or after is also a major bonus. more seat time as well! reasonable cost. passengers allowed.... it is very nice as well. I just hope they keep this up for a while at least. Its was a nice change of pace.

so does that mean you want to do it again?

the 102 sounds like fun. No way I'd live through a 100+ mile ride but if you can do it, more power to ya Loren.

We have to get our shots in while we can.
So when's Gerry going to mod his 8? Hanging out with the 626 crowd, I'd have thought he would have caved by now.
