Default Snapspinner action shots (ITR)

Well, Shawn (Snapspinner) kicked all our butts at this weekends autocross. He was top dog PAX, winning our local "Pro" class.

On the way to victory, Shawn managed to best a lot of pretty good drivers.

Finishing order (just the "big" names)

1) Shawn Whipple
2) Tom Hoppe (WRX)
3) Jim Pastorius (MR2)
5) G H Sharp (new Boxter S, shhh, don't tell)
6) Bryan Hertweck (STS-Celica GTS)
10) Mike Whitney (BMW)
11) Eric Peterson (MR2 Spyder)

Here's the big picture.



Nice job Shawn.

Scott

This was the first autocross EVER that I coned every run. Goddammmit. That 10th place would have been 2nd just a few tenths behind Shawn if it wasn't for the cone. Grrr. Sorry, just venting. But I had a great time

Congrats Shawn and thanks to eveyone who came out and especially to all who helped out.

Mike (normally a precise autocrosser, but drank too much the night before maybe?)
