    Fantastic course...great flow. One question... is that area that was graveling up a ton typical? Just a little bit off the line and you were sideways...

    I wish I could have finished today. I just recently got home, seems like the autocross gods didn't want me to have fun. My clutch master cylinder exploded right as I trapped the finish on my first run. I have the car at Evolution Dynamics for a new CMC, new 650lb-ft clutch, flywheel, and solid motor mounts (since they have to take them out anyhow). I should have it back running this week but that doesn't help me today! Goodbye stock Evo POS clutch, hellooo Evo launch control, no more boggy starts for me!

    P.S. Thanks for all the co-drive offers today! I really appreciate it guys, I just didn't have my head on right after cleaning brake fluid from all over under my hood.

    Sorry to see that happen to you man, but you'll be back with much better parts!
    Awesome course today. Thanks Brett for letting me try out the Yokohama's. At first I was not expecting the back end to come around so easy, but I got the hang of it by the last run and it was fun. I need to get my setup to do that with the Star-Specs or when I change to the RS3's.

    Well-played! I enjoyed watching the AM class 1 battle today. Quite a showdown I hear at the end, between JRJ and Kim in the STS cars! Gotta love an autocross lady who shows up even when her husband is working. "Go earn me some tires while I race, boy!"

    I should be the one thanking you! You consistently put down better times than I so I'm glad you were on board with this little experiment. Definitely enlightening.

    No problem, we should try that again next year! I liked how easily my car rotated with your tire/wheel combo, so I might have to change my setup in the future

    Wortham strikes again. I don't see his penalty calculated in though.

    Great event and fun course. I had a good time hanging out with the NTAXS crew.

    Many thanks to TxCoyote for the chance to co-drive the Stalker. What a wicked machine! Aside from a bit of gravel in the face and eyes, I had a blast driving it.

    You really do drive fast in whatever you drive, don't you?! I have never seen that car go that fast, you should have tried F1 racings!
