Too hot to stack cones, but I will be happy to run both cars with you since we are in the same class. Miatamoto and I used to do it back when we were dating.

He will be faster than you in his M3 and your Miata. Are you sure you want it?

I don't know, the Miata doesn't have enough power to grossly slide every corner, AKA Ken style driving :)

If I could convience my wife to move Chris back to college with out me then I could attend, so I wan't be there.

I'll trade a run with you! Not as a competition just for fun. I don't think I've ever driven an STS Miata.

Can the registration be extended through tomorrow? I know it usually closes on Thursday night, but I'm waiting for a deposit to post in my PP account.

[ken o]

Yes

I would, but I will likely have my car packed up. I have to help with clean-up, so I will be packing up my car early in order to help with cleaning up after the event.

[CosmosMpower]

I'm in, and on street tires for once.

[Davidss]

Uhh... Today was a beating...

Big congrats to OZMDD for laying down some smoking times!

So are you experiencing Hoosier withdrawal?

[ken o]

My fastest clean 60.231.


Dirty was a 59.8

[OZMDD]

The one day I don't setup the video, I win. LOL. Great competition out there today, and very impressive use of the space to create a 60 second course, though there were a few close calls from people not knowing the course. One of the Maxey's did some heads-up driving to prevent a mishap. Also really cool to see the Ariel Atom!
Very good of BMW to keep the coolers well-stocked and everyone hydrated on a brutally-hot day. Glad I came out.

[Keifersmith]

Great course today Jerrett. It was a lot of fun. Just wish the BMW club could have arranged for a.little cooler weather. :)

[CosmosMpower]

So are you experiencing Hoosier withdrawal?

Hell yes, crusty old Hoosiers still beat crusty old Star Specs. I just need to find a co-driver so I can buy the fresh R comps.

The afternoon session was MUCH better as far as grip went though, I still had fun. Here's my 7th run a 61.8.

[ken o]

Thanks for braving the heat.
