Call me after 5. Clients and a interview today. If they like me, I would start this week, which would mean no go, but who knows!

10th in my class, could have shaved off my time by two seconds which would have put me in 5th-6th. I definitely need to step it up in the aero department to even consider being competitive.

Video of second session. The track was dusty, the tires were going away and I accidentally turned off the boost controller. Good video none the less.

Overall I had an awesome time even thoguh I didn't place as well as I hoped.

That was a great vid. Scary as **** when you lost it and then almost lost it. Weather looked awesome, or at least dry and warm, unlike Oregon... What are you thinking for aero?

Good job! Engine sounded Great, how did the brakes hold up?

Rear wing, front splitter/diffuser, etc..

The brakes were the best part of the car. They were awesome and consistent. Racing Brake made a really nice setup and the DTC-70 pads were the ****!

2:05 - 2:10, could have done a 2:03, but wasn't able to capitalize.

Unfortunately no, it is way out of my budget range since I need to upgrade on tires/wheels and other aero bits as well.

I may miss out on the willows event so I can get the car properly prepared for the Spring Mountain and Fontana events.

First time every driving on that track last weekend. After looking at the video a couple times I realized I missed out on some short cuts and should have been in a higher gear for the big sweeper and tail end of the S's.

Yeah, your FC was CLEAN. Nice setup, everytime I drove by to get gas I was like MAN that car looks sweet!
