You want to stay in second anyways so no problem. You lose time shifting on an autocross track.
Looks like I'll be able to make it to this one.
Zach. come on dude. Come and socialize with us...
On the track.
At least come and watch.

I've got more than enough social life. I need to work out tuning my damn car. I need someone to help that I trust and that is a rarity since Jeff is busy this weekend.

Well I had an awesome day. The car ran perfectly and handled great.
It was just about the best autocross day I have ever had.
Sorry ya'll missed it.
It was wet in the morning but dried up during lunch.
Afterward we had fun runs and I set a time 1.3 sec faster than my fastest competition time...
and I had a passenger.
I learned alot about the car and I'd give the day a 10 out of 10.
Hope to see more guys show up next time.
Driftkid was the only one I saw today.

I'm pretty sure I saw you [You raced in the second group in the 1-4 time]?

[I video taped about an hour, and made sure to record when I saw what I think is your car...]

Drift_kid didn't tell me when he was going to drive - otherwise I would've been there early enough to see him...

Anyway IM me [AIM: Derekcat3 ] and I'll get you a screen shot of what I think was you...

See you guys next time!

Sure ^_^ [You'll probly have to remind me though]

Oh, do you want the whole video [easier for me], or should I try to find all the clips of you? and how to you want it compressed [I can try making a Divx.AVI, or I could burn a VCD - Mpeg-1 - of it?] The VCD size is what I've already got, but it's 320*240

Anyway, email me about it ^_^
