    Thanks for the honorable mention.

    What I was really thinking was, "Wheeee, thump-thump-thump-thump, take that you Miata guys".

    The Evo has a push button gizmo on the dash with settings for Tarmac-Gravel-Snow. I leave it on Tarmac. On my fastest run in the wet I decided to try Gravel. And it worked. Perhaps I should have tried Snow on the last run.

    My last run still has the wrong time. I ran a 62. something. I know it was not a 68.264. Where are these numbers coming from?

    They come from the official SCCA Magic 8 Ball.

    Well...shake the 8 ball again and get the right time posted.

    I e-mailed Phil last night and so far no response. I would just like to have credit for MY best time of the day, which happened to be my last run.

    jolberry, given the number of timing errors we had on Sunday (not the SCCA's fault... the wind was apparently reeking havoc with the timing lights), I'd be surprised if you get that 62.### run back. You're kindness in telling someone that you didn't run a 55.### on street tires will probably be rewarded with that 63.371 that they now have listed as your best time.

    Phil sent an email to the SCCA mailing list. He/they know there are problems with times and scoring from the last event and with season totals. They're working on it. Be patient were his words.

    Well either way, a 62.xxx even a 63.xxx is not bad at all on street tires!

    Nice job! Did anyone see me drift my buddy's Black Evo? I was the one who didn't spin out or hit cones

    I understand there were a lot of issues Sunday and I will be patient. I am not putting the blame on anyone and I appreciate the
    I am not trying to be an, but if anyone of you had ran a faster time than what was posted you would want credit for it.

    Ok...done venting now

    haha, kick ass. His tires are terrible, and that was only his 2nd event. I ran with him for 3 runs trying to help coach him along. And then ran a "test" run to try and show him what he was doing wrong. He had a little trouble keeping up with the steering in the slalom, and then towards the end of it would floor it, and well, you saw the cone carnage.

    Good times though!
