Craig trophied first time out. The guy's an AX animal (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

We had a nice day and had over 50 cars/drivers.
Craig (the animal), Jim, Dave, Bruce (sans 914), Mike(no guts/no drive) and one other fella who's name escapes me......so the 914 contingent was out in force.

I stunk up the joint, but Chuck did gud. Haven't done a tank slapper for a while so I took care of that today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Bruce ought to have some pics for us any day now.

Made it home safe and sound, thanks for the concern.

Thanks to all of the Portland guys. I had an absolute ball! The course was great fun and wasn't the puzzle to figure out that Bremerton was. I could find all the gates so I just got to drive (not too well). I never did get the far end close to right. there was a crown in the middle of the turn so the car unweighted then came down to off camber the rest of the way around. No matter how I tried, I couldn't get the car turned early enough so I was all over. I'm still too late braking (Bruce captured all the smoke in the Chicago box. But I'm still getting better.

Incidentally Bill in his 1.7 handed me my helmet. It may look like handful but he gets the car around really well.

The high point had to be 2 loops with JP in ULF. What an absolute blast! Thanks JP.
I finally understand the 6 thing. I can't really put it into words.

The Portland guys get business done, I got home before 4PM.

There was a price to pay for waking my wife up at 4:30 in the morning to say I was going to Portland. She was pretty pissed about me not telling her earlier so we could talk about it. It was worth it though for a ride in Ulf.
