Because MyLaps sucks, this probably won't work: http://www.mylaps.com/results/showevent.jsp?id=689594

Final results that stand out:
Chad - 2:13.3
Whitaker - 2:14.3
Tristan Herbert - 2:15.0
Michael Harris - 2:15.9

Don and Todd don't have times, I'm guessing they broke?

I feel like Hyperfest several years ago was sort of like that. All I remember was sweating my nuts off while hanging out in the shade back in the woods wearing only my boxers. While on track it was just ridiculous, and I got delirious towards the end of the day (when we had a 45 minute session or something).

****, 2:14.4??? Way to go, Erik!

Also talked to Dave Martin who was racing in Spec E30 today, 17-car class! He managed to qualify in 6th and finish in 7th, first time in one of those cars.

Thanks Guys. New Asiaworks (Formerly Hondaworks) motor was awesome. Had great races with Jonathan both Sat. and Sun. He did a great job beating me on Sun.

My tires were shot but I tried to outbrake Jonathan in the Integra and went off. Yeah, glad I could get back on before the Miata.

That was an amazing race, I look forward to racing you at the next two events, I'm getting good practice doing this kind of close driving!

NJMP should be a lot of fun. Still need to work some things out with the new engine. Had a check engine light the entire race Sun. Although I don't think it affected me at all I need to trace it. Maybe Spence with get his back together in time for NJMP.
