    Most excellent event! Had a good time, saw some folks I haven't seen in a while and met some of the new folks. Sorry my performance wasn't better, but you've all heard the excuse by now, so I'll give Majik a break

    Can't wait for the next event...guess I'll just go look at the great pics again! POS - thanks for the pics

    Hmmm... hat rolling around in floor versus some undescribed furry thing flying out from behind the passenger seat... hmmmm... as I recall, I still managed to beat you in your own car... But, we don't want to get that ball rolling since POS returned the favor and beat me in my car last year, too...

    Congrats to Majik for really getting his freak on in the afternoon runs... Bastard

    What a fantastic day... had a great time, got a lot better at driving thanks to some advice - I'll be getting someone to ride in with me at each event from now on, a lot of the other miatas have such better tires/suspension setups that riding with them whilst a buzz doesn't relate much back to my heap in terms of what's possible.

    Nice photos Mick - well framed at speed, that's hard to do, good stuff. One thing - you might try taking a couple at a slightly lower shutter speed, so the background and wheel blurring gives an idea of speed? Just an idea, it wouldn't be right for every photo anyway.

    Look forwards to seeing y'all at the next event - reckon it'll be the Equipe Rapide in May... on my birthday, no less!!

    And the pictures that pos and I took. They were taken using my Nikon D70. I have a large format printer (24" wide) and some photographic paper. Let me know and I can print it for you for a really low TCB price.n Next on the list to buy is a telephoto lens to get closer to the action, but still staying out of harms way!

    Hmm what is decent? Are we talking about your decent or my decent? I'm just curious because I don't want to offend anyone else's decent...

    Hey guys, we should have results up soon. We're doing a quick audit of the heat 4 results...

    Oh, and sorry about the overly tight chicane. It was fun when you got it right but I think it was just a bit much. Not intentional, sorry...

    These guys aren't the ones complaining about the chicane.

    I notice that marcucci only has one time listed. Did something happen to his car?

    He wasn't driving the Civic...he co-drove with Gabby, and I think he only made a few runs....I guess that's why his best time is different than the bolded single run listed...

    OK, I get the co-drive thing, but an 89.407+2 actually equals a 93.407 rjosey8385...

    Well, I guess that's why I'm not an engineer I wasn't paying attention. He actually got in at least 3 runs
