That was a well organized event and I had a lot of fun. I'm starting to get better at car control, but I'm horrible at the start. I think my nerves are too jittery or I forget how my car handles if I'm not driving it hard often. I also need to do a better job at looking ahead. I missed a few gates in the morning set.

Hopefully more autox will fix that

Hi Jack,

Please check your passenger side rear tire. I looked for you in the pits, but couldn't find you. The tire was delaminating.


Bill

could explain your lurid oversteer problem!!

Thanks, Bill, I noticed that too, and it got even worse on Sunday

I just checked, and I just bought those tires in June last year.

Results are posted

Consulting with the brain trust and analyzing numbers from past results. A street tired stock class S2000 (SBS) should be able to run ES race tire RAW times. I now have my goal for the season.
