first ax today. forecast, 80, sun, low humidity, and as few cones as possible. nice setting. you have the olympic mountains on nearly three sides.it's been nearly 6 weeks since the last one. with the weather i'm guessing a big turn out. i'm pretty jazzed.

Kevin It's to bad you weren't at home today, there was a special delivery of a 914CLUB t shirt. Only thing you had to be there to sign for it or it went to the next person on the list.

oh boy! 1st, too busy to even look at the time board, 3 gates. the magic # seemed to be 6 for a instructor ride along. 2, 74 something 1 gate. 3, 74 something 0 gates/cones with a BIG spin (but i didn't kill the motor). 4, 66 and change, clean run. a positve day overall. a very long course with a few high speed sections. the sun was brutal. my wife got the spin nicely but the dialup is a no go for posting the video. the announcer saying "oh no" on the audio is funny.

Sounds like ya done good, Kevin. Yes, the sun can be brutal when it hits 85 degrees at Bremerton as there no shade anywhere except inside of the cars!

Sounds like you had a great time. Way to go. Looks like you are a fast learner, the way the times dropped.
