Thank you Stephen and congrats to you for doing soo good at your first event. Randy
also did really well but was second after Stephen.. I'm not sure what the times were
but I think it was only tenths.

Also John Stimson was on fire today with a 54.???


I had my first third place finish of the season in STX novice today didn't really want
to finish the camry off that way but what are ya gonna do?? I still had tons of
fun driving with Stephen, we were totally laughing after his first run. It's going to be a
fun season with the S

Kens car is sweet looking. I didn't get to see you run I wanna another ride to
see or feel the difference Ken? It was good seeing you, it's been a while.. I was
really tired otherwise I would have done the course walk with you guys. I actually had
to pull over and take a quick nap on the way home...

good to see you mac and the rest of the gang that were there today.... sorry i didnt get to see you guys run, i was watching F1 and got there at 1145.

congrats on the 3rd place, sorry to hear you were sick/tired today.... theres always next season

congrats to randy and stephen on their first event...


thanks for the sweet comment mac, yeah next time you can ride... man 3 runs today wasnt enough for the tuning. but i think i got the right settings, only if i had good rear tires today, i woulda done a lot better. i started with full stiff up front and 75% stiff in the rear and first run was 63.3.... soften the rear some more and handling improved but rear tires just spinned at exits and no grip at all... best time was 61.2 and did a 60.3 during funruns, just tire pressure adjustments. man i need racetires for slush!

hope to see you guys again during slush and next season!! i will be driving a starlet so the S will only see fun runs
