Got my NASA provisional on Sat. @ Sears Point. My friend got his last month @ Laguna. (We could only test one per Saturday per event.) We raced the enduro today. It was suppose to be a 3 hour race. There were fog delays (track closure) in the morning. It ended up being about 2 hours & 15 min. We finished 3rd in class (E2) & 10th overall. I am really not sure how many E2 cars there were. I do know that we started 15th on the grid. We at least passed 5 other cars. (to be honest, there wasn't a very big turn out) I also got punted/spun off trackby a E30 BMW who was racing in E1 (supposedly a faster class). I caught it & lapped it before my stint was over. We had a great couple of guys help us with fuel, etc. (If you read this, I can't thank you enough!) Anyway, it was a kick in the a@@ although I still have a lot to learn! I highly recommend it. Oh yeah, anyone close to Tracy got a bumper cover to sell me?

 

Congratulations Mike!

 

Me very happy for you Mike. Me right behind you.

Scott, who's cage will be finished the rest of the way this week....

 

congrates. you're now a true racer! wheel to wheel. i hope to be one... someday.
what were the lap times?

 

We qualified with a totally lame 1:41. It put us 15th on grid. I was running high 1:36's to low 1:37. My co-driver was more consistant & faster. He pulled a low of 1:35.16. He was in the low :36's most of the time. This is on the short course being used because of the construction. The difference between the racing & Group 4 is huge! BTW, the kart track up there looks really cool. They have the first layer of pavement down. I think that they are suppose to have it up & running sometime in March.
