PCA Maverick Region Time Trial #2 Mineral Wells, 4/18/09

[jrj512]

If you have not tried one of these, they are a lot of fun. It is essentially a road course laid out using cones. You reach much higher speeds than an autocross, and it uses road course skills instead of autocross skills. They always use one of these three courses.

More info.

They have instruction available at the site and you get plenty of time driving the course at medium speed before the event.

Good times. The morning runs sucked because of the wet, but the afternoon was great. The Goodyear Circle Track Specials that came on my 13" wheels worked very well at MR.

You were rocking in the dry runs. TT's are a lot of fun and more Auto-X people should try it. As far as my car, it's now in Steven's hands. May the force be with him!

[jrj512]

I was pretty excited about those afternoon runs. The morning runs were such an exercise in frustration, but it was nice to practice my car control skills.

Glad you took the Miata to Stevan. Hopefully it will be something small.

Results.

I still don't get that top driver crap. What a load of crap LOL :) It's better to have clean runs than to be fast? LOL Talk about up :)

[Davidss]

Or how non porsches are excluded from the top times list.

I believe it has to do with club standings. I should know but believe there are awards at the end of the season, much like SCCA.

It's embarrassing for them otherwise.

[jrj512]

It does not really bother me that they leave non-Porsches out. I view the PCA events as just fun rather than true competition. However, there are specific drivers I measure myself against.
