...You forgot the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) icon on my time...

Ran 1:12s my first three runs. Decided that the six-point belts were f-ing with my head, so I forgot them and used the stock three-points. 1:09, whee!! I knew there was a 1:08 out there for me, from the very first run--and I might be able to ratchet the time down even further!

But I wasn't sure really where the time was.

In the afternoon, I started back at 1:12, and wound up bringing it down to 1:10... I just had no idea where I was leaving so much out there. (Actually, I think I have a pretty good idea where there was some "easy time" to pick up--now--but it's about 20 hours too late!!)

Oh well, I still took B-i. Mostly because Rob and Demick weren't running.

Man, you guys are bringing me down. At the end of Saturday, I was starting to feel pretty good about my 1.18 plus one cone, so 1.19. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Can't wait to come out and play again. Alameda was indeed a great venue. Weather was spectacular, course wasn't as bumpy (as 3com), and the backdrop magnificent.

Thanks again to my instructors Randal and Rob, and to Trekkor for walking the course with me and showing me the lines. Oh, and Britian for getting me back onto S880 at the end of the day. That place is hard to find!!

There's a vid on the 911 bird board of a section of this thing.....made me salivate for that course. I can see where a semi-stock 914 would have a problem......but one with a good P/W ratio would kick booty. With all them runs, even an old fart like me could work up the balls to keep the hammer down....I had a similar experience at PIR, Sunday, but our 3rd gear "straight" wasn't straight (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I have in car video footage of all of my 8 runs.
I can learn from this.

Like Dave said, a little late though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

My first run was nuts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) . Did a 180 just past the finish.
I had to make a three point turn to avoid cones or a DNF.

Slip writer says: " thanks for not tripping the lights a second time!" .

That would of been trouble and a lot of re-runs.
