Thanks guys.Our Region puts on the events at Blytheville- so the weekend is incredibally full of work and fun.The car was better than I was.Steve and Rick (Perfection Plus) have really got this car working.
The first day we were pretty good in the seat-car was great- added 3/8" more firm on front sway bar for Sunday-
Did not drive as well Sunday-proved it on third run-Lossed car in first corner on a shift (poor judgement ) spun half way around -two ways-gathered and attacked course mad-run was only .2 slower than previous best-should have been a second faster all day.
The course design by Doug Gill (National Guru) was an absolute joy to drive-Great course-great friendships and competition- what more could you ask for?

Saw a vid of the course....a guts course.....looked great One tight turn?

Fun course-tight entry and exit into horseshoe-entry into all slaloms was critical-angle and proper speed.Huge sweeper at end.Had multiple national champs want us to run that course on a test and tune-if we ran those courses they would come to burn up a set of tires.Going to figure out when.JJackson

Hey, I finished last in his class and was slow enough to make him look really fast. Doesn't that count for anything?
