    You should be faster than that old Porsche. I need to ride along with you at the next track day. Your line overall is pretty good. It needs to change in buzzards neck, triple turn and rattlesnake. You tend to follow the line of the car you're following. You should have blown by zx-tex green nb if you weren't mimicing his line.

    oh yeah, and F*CK Food Poisoning!!!!! I'm so pissed that I left my camera and my bag at the shop when I had them in my hand!! I got zero video of my car and the session ended before I could pass you!

    biggest problems was the lack of brakes (ordering rotors and carbo tech pad for next time out) and people mid turn braking in front of me to the point where i was having to fallow there lines (zx-tex one of them =P) didn't help. was almost side by side in some just from running the faster line. but i do agree with my teh suck in the rattlesnake. have video of Alen pulling on me just because he's smoother.

    i slowed down for you to come and play, guess i should have just pitted and came out after you.

    Great event Gary. It was a challenge to have so many faster cars to dodge. Sorry if I was a nuisance but I was peddling as fast as I could. This was my son's first track event and he did really well. He is so very hooked.

    Gosh! It's amazing how much shorter the straights are when you have horsepower! Now if you could use ALL the track and get on the power earlier, I bet that car would really be quick......

    My Shuhart XP5000 (that is the Shuhart-to-English translator) just disintegrated trying to translate jeffman's post.

    I'm thinking Jeff has to be related to Shu somehow.

I really felt like I went as fast as anyone could go with the old set-up on a stock 1.6. I built this car so I could have a toy to keep fro the rest of my life and its a little more than I planned on. I feel like I'm on one side of the grand canyon, the car is on the other, and I'm bridging the skill gap with each session. It should keep me busy for a few decades.
