Blew up third gear in the afternoon session. But it rained all day Sunday, so just missed a couple sessions.

Pics are 1/3 size and 80% jpg to keep their size down. A friend took the pics. So I'm not going to complain about free pics.

Tranny probably didn't have 4000 miles on it.

Aero was not hugely noticed on South course. I did full and the rear wing made a huge difference in the feel of the car going through the uphill S's.
Tires and front camber are a big factor. Will check VIR full times to see if there is a major difference in lap times.

Traction bar updated here:

Let's just say I was able to keep up with the field. There where only about 8 cars in the advance group. I was up against Ferrari Challenge drivers driving their street legal Scuderia's. I was somewhat out-talented by semi-pro drivers. But was able to keep pace with their lap times within about a second. So I didn't get rolled too bad.
I did finally catch one of the Scuderia's before cooking my tires (and blowing my tranny).
