Bummer for both of you no shows 
, we had a pretty long day since runs started around 11:00am. We ended up running until the sun went down and had to turn the headlights on to see where we were going

Oh man, long day. Atleast I did pretty well, I was 0.032 sec off of the 1st place Evo with RA1s! I'll get my r-compounds up there one of these days to spank the Evo. I thought my last, "night", run was my fastest, but we all went slower in the darkness.
I did have fun waiting around, walking to the taco truck, seeing all the crazy cars, etc. We'll be in the first group of run groups now so we can atleast get out of there at a decent time next time.

seriously I can't wait to see this happen! Yeah the darkness plays tricks on our senses. The darkness blanketed the chance of me spanking Mac

Should be able to beat the evo's with street tires, especially with something sticky like the re01's or rt-615's. The RA1's are more of a road race tire vs a auto-x tire. You would have to do some serious hot laps to get them up to temp. We'll see what happens later on.
