Had a great time at the Jefferson 500. Fun to run with this group. Finally got my track car running and made it through the whole event without a mechanical failure (read engine). Had my fastest lap time at Summit this weekend.

You weren't the only /4 there. A guy named Wade was across from me back in one of the areas in the woods. A Silver 914 spyder, #29. I don't know about this year, but a couple of years ago he was turning 1:29 - 1:28 laps consistantly at Summit main. Photos are from 2 years ago.

Mettelman, I have on track video of you in the All Porsche race on Saturday. Looks like we started next to each other. I'll post it on Utube in a few days. Unfortunately, my camera battery ran out halfway through the race!! Very quick /4 you've got there ..... and the driver ain't too bad either (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) .

Yes it has........ and another one as well, but it is Group 3, the group they put me in with the MG's 240Z's, a Lotus and some other cars (like a Peerless!!).
