Hi there,

Yeah, I think we met at Reno, how's the motor? Are you going to make T-hill? That'll be my first race :)

I'm working on 5, I think I"m a little slow into 11, and way slow into 14, but otherwise I feel pretty solid.. Could be right on the braking, the plus pads I was running lock up real easy so I've been working on getting up to the edge and backing down, so sometimes I go in a little soft early. We'll see how these 1109s work out for me in a few weeks.

TTYL!

Cool I will be there at T.H. The black car will be down for a while. Watch out for turn 1 it will bite you hard if your are not careful. I almost flipped end over end at 8 so watch out for that too.

Block them if you have to but don't cut any body off. In my opinion if the guy next to you have his front bumper stuck in by you rear tire then his is in. You can pick them off if you are faster, but remeber when it comes to head to head two deep into turn one it is much different then when you are by yourself.

Good luck in advance.
