The BMW event was fun too. Lighter turnout since all the Miata's were at Pennington. The course was a very "SCCA" style course for a change. Speed was between 2nd and 3rd gear for a 5 speed. Think Harris took FTD.

Thanks for that link general... and we missed you out at Pennington Field.

As for the event highlights, let's see:

- 16 Miata Pilots
- 6 Drivers had their best run in Class, the other 10 saved their best run for the Rapid Pax
- Unfortunately, Miatas only won the classes where they were the only make of car competing (CS, STS2, T)
- 2 Miatas broke the 40 second barrier
- altiain beat me in class again, this time by 5 one-thousandths of a second (he beat me at a recent NTS2KOC event by 3 one-thousandths of a second)

I think everyone had fun with the course, and it was nice that the event ended a little early. We probably have the BMW folks to thank for that -- they undoubtedly siphoned off a few folks that might have been at Pennington Field otherwise.
