I didn't forget, but I had to keep deleting emoticons because I had used too many in one post.


WhrDLMI(Jeff)-

When Steve was out of rotors, we called Jeff, but got no answer. In light of this, Rob was kind enough to offer what rotors he had that were at his house. Keith was kind enough to follow Rob to his house and then return with the rotors. So off they went. Shortly thereafter, I got a call from Jeff, saying that he in fact had a set of used rotors.

Jeff drove them to the track where he was met at the gate by Keith/Steve. As a result, Steve was able to run the last TA session, but could not push the car too hard.

I ask you, how are Rob's, Keith's, and Jeff's gestures? The Audi guy, also a Jeff, was impressed by the teamwork and selflessness of our group.

In all, I was proud to be an S2000 owner at the track this weekend. All our drivers were courteous and respectful of others on and off the track. Thumbs up to you all!

Nice job there Skippy!

How did you fare Cale?
Thanks, John and everyone.

Cale did not drive on Sunday.

George, every single group and class set records this year by a lot. We're talking as much as 7 seconds. That tells me that, sure, folks are getting faster, but that the conditions got pretty good. My best time was in my last session of the day: 1:39:073. Steve's was 140.90 on the practice session right before he cracked a rotor during the 1st TA session. At that point, he was faster than me.

Oops, I did forget... PTuning was out there and smoked the piss out of their class... by 7 seconds! Their TC looked good and was fast! Good job, Toan, Mr. C and Ross. I think they had two cars out of their shop that placed.

Isn't that what the community is all about?

I am very happy to help out when I can. As I have said before, my home is open to anyone of you guys if you need a place to work on your cars, need a second set of hands, or just want to relax.

I am really sorry I couldn't hang around and watch the action. Bobbie had some elective surgery to correct a broken nose on Friday. As a result, she was pretty much out of it all weekend and needed me around. Running the rotors out there was no biggy but I definitely would have been pushing my luck if I stuck around any longer.

Glad everyone had a great time, did well, and made it home in once piece!

See you at Fall Colors!

Awesome time this weekend!!

Thank you Keith for all the tips, advice and hospitality!! ...and the spare set of rear brake pads!!

Thank you Skip for letting me stay in your trailer and the food!!

Thank you Aaron for coming over and hanging out and taking a ton of pictures!!

Congrats Skip and Steve for winning 1st and 3rd in Modified-RWD class!! I hope to get their someday when I start modding my bone-stock S.

My best was a 1.48.719. By the end of the day(during the last practice session and the last time attack session), I was running 1.48s consistently. I was glad to get the consistency down, now I need to get faster!!

Good to see everyone that came out!

Productivity at work today will be an all time low while I sort about 9GB of photos.

6 frames per second high speed burst = I get to choose the best-of-the-best to post.
