Well, After just getting my license yesterday, dad decided we needed to go to an auto x.. So today we went to the San Fransisco GGR auto x, Boy was that fun! Yes I did drive!!! I spent most of my run time switching between my car and my instructors car. Alright, well I havent ever driven hard in my life except today, but i seemed to be able to do good.. My dads fastest time was 45.4, the TTOD (top time of day) was 42.5, and my fastest time was 49.7! WHOO HOOOO!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dance.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Yup, Im excited!!!! I did my last two runs without my instructor because he thought it would improve my time, and it did. My times where 59.8 , 55.3, 54.3, 51.7, 53.5 (no grip on the wheel, didnt turn, but no cones), 51.7, 49.7, and 50 flat.. I ran my dads 944 turbo, with the boost set almost all the way off (im learning to drive.. dont want to spin out), and he ran with full boost. I will post pics (and a couple of video's) as soon as they download.
YAY!!! |

I'd say you had a good time.
You're a lucky man to have a cool enough Dad to get you out there. My Dad was cool when I was 16... about golf. I think the TTOD was a tad lower in the the 40-41 second range. Results will be posted on the GGR website in a few days. You can check out all the times (mine too). Thanks for snapping all those photos. I enjoy seeing all the action shots of the AX minded. Its tough to snap a moving car huh. Good seeing / meeing you. Take it easy, and we'll see you again out there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |
