LSC BMWCCA AutoX #6 TMS! (8/18/12)

Who would have known one click of rebound adjustment would have made the car handle much better. Thanks to Nathan for giving me feedback on my car. Had a good time today. Overcast and a breeze was nice!

Thanks for getting the results and points posted so quickly!

I loved the course today, and had a blast! Thanks to everyone who put it together! I just wish Harry's Lap Timer would have done better for me, since it only allowed me to capture about 1.8 runs on video. Fortunately, the 0.8 was my fastest run, which is below.

When I watched this video, it looked WAY faster than I thought it was. It was my 1st run of the afternoon, which has always been a "throw away" for me prior to the Ohlins. I also had a huge distraction right after corner 1 (right after the video starts), since the glove box between the seats fell open, and a ton of stuff fell out on my lap (radar detector, reading glasses, garage door opener, etc). Fortunately, I was able to quickly close the glove box with my elbow, and the incredible awesomeness of my Ohlins allowed me to recover from the "ill steering inputs" I made because of it. If I haven't said it before, I LOVE the frigg out of these Ohlins!!!

BTW, I just noticed that all of the videos posted above are TERRIBLE to watch through dfwmiata.com, but if you click the "Watch on YouTube" button, they are great...

Oh, and congrats to Stuart Hopson for shaving more than 4.5 seconds off of his next fastest run to beat Chris Fithian in what I'm guessing is Chris Fithian's car!!!

Y class is getting FUN!

Fun Morning. Wish I could've stayed for the afternoon, I think I would've done somewhat better. Course was technical and challenging, good job JJ. You got the most out of the bus lot that was possible in its current layout.

I really wish I could've made it, I love the bus lot for sheer fun-factor. Had to make two airport trips to pick up relatives and went to a gymboree party for my niece.

We did put-in an offer on a terrific house today, so might have been worth missing the event.

My last run. Love the GoPro!

Had a good time out there today. I was edged out of the lead in the E class by .004, crazy! Here was my best run, 58.805

[JKKent]

Even with as horible as i did i had so much fun for my first time! I look forward to doing more lscbmw events. Hopefully I will be able to mess with my suspension a bit more and get a better wheel/tire combo in the future.

O, and i thought off roading my jeep all day took a lot out of me. But wow! With only a total of around 10 minutes of seat time I was exhausted lol.

Wow, that looked like a really fun course!! Can we save it for an SCCA event at Crandall?
