I'm waiting for to post up her pics...

I also left after practice runs. I was getting ~76-77 seconds on the first session and then after consultation with some other teeners I dropped my times by 5 seconds. My best time was 71.915 (with a few cones).

So thanks Brando and Joe. You helped a lot!

I took pics with yours and Tony's camera. I guess unfortunalty hardly any pics of the 163 that I took turned out! Bummer because I had a great spot too... had a visibility of 3 turns! Sadly, I guess it was too dark for the pics to turn out where I was.
Looks like Marks bro had THE spot though!


Mark and Tony,
You guys are welcome! I will you guys on anytime!

Mark,
Your scores were Excellent for a :newbie:
Best time besides the Lotus (63.) was a 65. (I think)
I think that your time was pretty damn awesome in comparison for a first timer!!!

In timed runs the times were slower than the times early in the day as the track had cooled. I saw some good runs. Some 65's and a 64 by drivers other than the Lotus. Thomas and Hershel were both 1/2 second quicker that that car.

Why thank you. Overall, I am very happy with how I drove, however, I did find some things that I need to work on. Starts is definitely one of them. Also, I've already started working on heel-toe downshifting into first. I've got heel-toe pretty dialed for 2nd-5th, but getting into first smoothly takes a little more consideration and quite a bit more time. However, pulling the back strait from 2K RPM in second was really hurting my time, so I'm working on it. Great event, great learning experience, and an awesome adrenaline rush. Beats having to be extra extra careful in the mountains. And Toast, get that battery tray in before the next one!
