She was very fast, and came within about 1 second (on a 90+ second course) of her sponsor! :thumleft:

. . . and after the SCCA school and her performance the next day, she was told to start driving her own car to the AX incase she needed a ride home :shock: and to start saving up to help buy the next set of tires :burnrubr:

My own codriver might want to take note of all this ;)

Yep, yet again this year I managed to place poorly in class, then out-PAX the rest of the class in the money runs. I guess POS is rubbing off on me, as I'm starting to go faster with the Rs on the car as well. :mrgreen:

My hat is off to Kestrel - we've had plenty of close events over the last couple of seasons, and he got the better of me yesterday in the regular runs by about 3 hundredths of a second. :burnrubr:

Ok, I'll stop whining....fun couse anyway...

You ain't kiddin'... lugnutjon finished out of the money for the first time this year, and General Default and I both got bumped back to the low teens. Still, we'll show those pesky power cars a thing or two at the next event at Pennington. :wink:

Interesting reading...

Looking at sammm's times, I think altiain wins the instruction overload award...

Thanks again, general, for helping me remember what to get my head around. I had a great day.

Ya selling that slow red one? :jocolor:

I can feel your pain after reviewing the results for my class...... Making me start to rethink the “everybody gets a trophy deal”. I think I like it now! :cry:

You're just lucky that CSP PAX is hanging around my neck to give you the chance to beat me. :nutkick:

Your just lucky I've got a beat up NA with stock springs, stock sways and skinny tires. :mrgreen:

I've probably got 80 WHP like POS.

Yup, looking at the PAX results, definitely a hp, or hp/wt course. To win PAX, I would have had to go 2.1 seconds faster, times in the mid 91 second range....not without another 25/30 hp! :nutkick:
Ok, no more whining, I promise...

The next ER event is at Pennington Field. We'll see what happens on a more "technical" course...:twisted:

Pictures are up! :cool:

Be sure to give Dennis R (he drives the red Mustang in DP) a pat on the back. He (1) takes all these pictures, and (2) puts them up on a website all without being paid one red cent! Of course, you can help him by purchasing one of his pictures...

Wow, now I realize I havent been to an AX in awhile, last time I saw Dennis driving, he was in the Lincoln LX. I definetly need to get out for ER #4.
