Up untill that weekend I think Freddy ran a 2:32 in his red R, but I wanna say he did a 2:30 in the same event that I did the 2:31. I felt pretty good either way since Freddy is an exceptional driver, way beyond where I am. And Ted is at another level too, as is my other cobra R buddy Brian, I just taga long and learn from those guys :-)

On a side note, I got a trophy plaque this weekend at the NASA event. It was my first time on the south track and late in the first day I got the fastest time trial time of a 1:39, then beat it with a 1:37, then with some help from my buddy Brian (AI racer) I cleaned up some lines and I beat my old time again on the second day with a 1:35. There was no other cars in my class so that was no big deal, it was the fact that it was fastest time trial overall that made me happy :-) and I think I took another leap in where I feel comfortable in terms of speed with the car.
FIRE, damn that's some terrible news. I really enjoy seeing them at VIR so hopefully they will get it fixed up and I'll see them next year or later this year again at VIR.

BTW if you're running with that red cobra you're doing a great job and congrats on the time trial times. These cars are truly amazing so we need to keep them alive and kicking in hopes that we can spread the love so we can start seeing more FDs on track. IMO and I'm sure you'll agree there are very VERY few production cars I've ridden in or driven that are as much fun to drive.

Keep up the good work and hopefully one of these days we can run some laps together

I think me and my cobra R buddies are going to hit VIR later in the year, ill figure out when... it would be perfect if I could get some instruction from you at that track.
