hey guys I was very curious I ran a 51.6 +1 yesterday which with the penalty should have put me in 2nd or 3rd place in my class. But they used my clean run that was a 54.4......I thought your fastest time counts not your cleanest. I was hoping to see my name at the top of the boards and I was 1/3 of the way down

You are correct; that's a mistake in the results. Just fixed it & re-posted 'em. Will be double-checking the rest of the list shortly.

Sorry about that,

Jon

Try not hitting so many cones next time BJ - it results in less tears

j/k.

It's funny though, a co-worker of mine who was out for the second time this weekend in his G35 asked me about this same issue today, but reversed "I beat the Kennedy guy, then I checked the results again and he was in front of me. WTF is up with that???"

Sorry for the oversight, and I'll see you around dude!

-Jayson

I saw them! Much happier. I wasn't worried about points since this was my 2nd event with them, but I have to say I had soooooo much fun. My last run was a blast trailbraking and clutch kicking it a few times I tried to get the *** end out as much as I could.

Still have a lot of improving to do on the driver but I did learn my smoothest and fastest time I used less throttle and braking. More steady speeds throught the turns and it was great. I still love some counter steer though!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will take it easier on those cones.
And Jayson I think you/Jon left 50% of Robins tire back at that double gate.....damn that was a lot of smoke......both feet in you say???????????

That was James driving. My run in Robin's car was clean - and terrifying, in the best way possible. ;-)

We had to give a re-run to the driver behind James because of all the smoke hahaha,

I don't know what's scarier; the ride in Robins car or being a course worker out there when you guys were running it all sideways n' stuff

Engine: 12a. Rebuilt and streetported with about 1k miles on it. $800

Apparently not!!

I think it is just a bad time of year. Everyone is busy being stressed out by visiting family members. Then when they drink too much to deal with this stress they can't make it out to the Friday night meets....

We should be good for this Friday though.
I discovered when I got to folks place for X-mas that my cell phone was dead and my charger was in Richmond.
So come out this Friday one and all and see the large dent my brother put in my front fender over the holidays.

oh he will NEVER hear the end of this

I am toying with the idea of pulling the fender and taking a "whack" at some body work myself
