well...this was my first event in over 2 months (had to break in the new motor...etc)...and overall i had a great time. i liked the course design and was able to run a 50.xx. FTD was 46.xx and i think almost everyone faster than me was on R tires...

was just wondering how everyone else liked/disliked the course and how they did...as there were 5 H-T members there by my count...

also...does anyone have any pictures from the event, possibly of my car?

and thanks to jesse naughton, an h-t member, who rode with me and gave me advice that helped me lower a second off of my time on the next run.

 

Congradulations man....just keep at it. That car has a lot of potential in it...even in it's current state. Get that thing tuned let me drive it!! (I'm learning from the carwhore greats, Karen and Eric, and even AJ)

 

Nice to meet you there man. Your car is quick. My quickest run was 50.8, but I hit 4 cones. Clean run was 51.1. Saturday's course sucked. Sunday's course was nice. The crappy gravel tore up my already bald Azenis, but I ordered some new ones today Also busted a brake line. so some new brakelines are on their way. Overall, had a good time. My car was co-driven by Clay (ILUVTEC). At least I didn't get rolled by my own car. Chris (ITRChris) and Steve (ArmyGreen EG) were also there sporting their Rs making good times.

 

Yeah, you got lucky this time Marc. But get some damn tires, then we'll give it another try
Anyways, a good time was had by all, but the heat/sun kinda sucked
Later

16.0 @ 81 mph....

copy Kenji's ITR...it was FAST.

Why? positives? and negatives?

"it sucked" is about as descriptive as saying "my cat has a tail"

 

manx cats dont have tails.

Well I only went on Sunday but I did like the course except for the one gate I missed 3 times!! Anyway for being super rusty, on different pavement and still dialing in tire PSI on the last run I was happy with my 52.880sec and 3rd place in STS. My main goal of running this event was to get some needed seat time this season before the double event in Sebring this weekend. The first half of this season was a total wash when I changed jobs, moved to Orlando and lost my car for 4 week after being hit in the rear so I hope second half is a vast improvment!
