PS
We need to check if Bigsrturbo already did his LSx swap! ;)
Nice win Bigsrturbo. I just could not put it together today. Looking at how some of the other Toyo drivers finished, I think the Toyos might like that dirt a little less than others. Even Ataim's Viper seemed to handle it better when I rode with him. Still, that was nice driving on your part.
BTW, Ataim, Leilane announced that she wants a Viper. It might be cheaper just to sell her to you rather than buy a Viper. Make an offer.
Great event today! The course was great other than the dirt.
Big thanks to Mark for the co-drive. Lots of fun to drive a NA again. It's been too long.

Even in the afternoon when grip was way up, straying off the clean line on the southern edges of the course was met with strenuous penalty...Quote:

Awesome event! Great weather and great driving by many. You guys make me want a Miata now.::Drive1::
Here's my fastest run from the morning. Didn't get any video from the afternoon unfortunately.

Great job Ashley! Especially on tires that are a little used up too! Watching you run you were flying and your car looked so poised on the track. Class 1 was very competitive! Fantastic day!

Guys,
Great event! Loved the course and would've loved to try the course in reverse (afternoon). Anyway, after some tuning and adjusting air, I was able to pull 1.18 g. Finally! Been trying for that for two years.
Thanks S2000 group for hosting. Let's do it again soon!

Thanks for all of the comments, I had a really good time. Did better than I thought, knowing how loose the Bus Lot could be.
As if everyone didn't already know it.... this just proves that Wortham is fast no matter what you put him in. He had never driven that car (or any other first gen 7) before the event on Sunday, much less autocrossed one.Quote:

I forgot to take the camera out of upside down mode so all our vids are inverted.
Looking at the results across the classes makes what Miatamoto and bigsrturbo ran even that much more impressive. A couple of NA miatas raw-timing the entire rest of the field, including a SC Lotus and an M3 and several prepped NC's on race tires. Great driving, guys!
