Great Day at the FATT.

First time driving on the track w/o race seats in a few years

Pete is much faster than I am, when driving my car.

He ran down a Spec Miata with a instructor driving in my car with me in the passenger seat.

Maybe Pete has a secret fast lines or secret late braking zones. But we all know Pete is very fast.

I can't wait to get out there.

Hey George, you were just a little rusty from taking the winter off. You will be up to speed again once you get a couple events under your belt this year. Thanks for letting me take your car for a spin. Your miata is a great little car, don't get rid of it.

I ended up creaking a front rotor in the morning on the drive down to the track. Ridiculous. Luckily, George and Brian let me take their cars out for a session so I got in some fun seat time. Good to have friends at the track!

15lbs and a much more reasonable price tag.

Matt, your roll cage looks great--very well crafted and super strong. I like all the gusset plates your constructor used.
