^^ Glad you came out, nice meeting you
Despite the damp weather, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The surface was slick, but it wasn't raining so hard that it was miserable to be standing around. Some sprinkling / misting at times, but that's it.
As for the driving - it was definitely enlightening. Unfortunately, I didn't get a feel for the car until the last heat, which explains why an anemic Miata won the street tire class. I'm way too timid in the rain... I'll have to find my balls a little sooner next time.
Some opposite lock slides cut my tires up pretty good ...other than that, definitely a lot of fun.
Chris - nice work on pwning us in a car with 1/2 the power. Thanks for the fun ride, you've got that car under control for sure
I think this might be it for me until next season. Winter is just about here, which means Lap-Attacking the terrain park at Stevens Pass!!

nice meeting you too! i noticed something odd on your front passenger fender wheel lip. it kinda pokes downwards while everthing is rolled. was that caused by the drifting?

Anyone else doing the stars event this weekend? I think that I will go just because it should be a fun event where we get to see all of the forms of racing in one day. Prolly my last event for the year as I dismounted my race tires today in order to put my snows on my extra set or rims.

That was caused by my driveway, it hooked on the tire and got pulled down ...I have the worst curb in the world. I have a lip sitting in my garage that I can't put on because I'll scrape the paint right off once I do. The fenders will be folded and fixed after the toy run I'm thinkin'. I'm also going to try and ghetto-rig a ramp for my driveway.

You guys missed out on a great day. It wass snowing, freezing, and one of the funnest days that I have had there. Since the car and kart turnout wasn'e all that great, they let anyone who was in any of the classes run the rental class for free. It was basically a lapping day where you got to use the rentals too. Also we got about 7 or 8 cycles. That means 8 car sessions, and 8 kart sessions for me... for $60...
I also had a pretty good day, my fast lap was 1:17.01 which is pretty good for it being freezing, slightly moist, and on street tires. Thats actually my fastest street tire time.
I would highly recomend going to the next event as long as there is no snow sticking to the ground. The "Stars of Motorsport" is a winner in my book!!!
