Nice runs! how did you guys place? Times? Who is faster? hahaha

Thanks.

@Flightmaster127 is faster than me. He placed 1st in his class (GS) with a 26.24 lap. I placed 4th in my class (DS) with a 27.20 lap. So he's got about a second on me.

My class is VERY tough. @death_roll can confirm. There is one guy (Alex) that does Nationals in his FRS. Then an older guy that does 15 events per year in his JCW Mini Cooper and finally Scott who is also an older guy with a '11 WRX that has done a lot of events. I'm not making excuses about my 4th place finish. Just feel the need to clarify :P

I'm still learning. I definitely improved after talking to one of the instructors. I had fun and know Chris is faster than me. I'm not upset.

1st in my class. Fastest time was 26.26 seconds.

Found out I was in the wrong class so technically I would have been 4th in pax vs 10th.

I looked at the final results and Duke is still using last year's PAX multipliers, he isn't using the updated 2017 PAX like he should, so last year HS was .795 and this year it's .786. I can mention it to him on 5/13 so he's aware.

@death_roll is so helpful.

If you want to you can. I'm more concerned about the fact that its looking like rain and not bringing home hundreds of mites in my car again.

Good Luck! Hope you two do well.

@Flightmaster127 - clover mites definitely going to be washed away

Philly region cancelled their event too. Guess it gives me time to put the cylinder head back on the other car.

I had off tomorrow anyway, so I'm renting a car and driving up to DE to see some friends, I'll use my BMC credit for one of their events in August or Sept.

Took top pax (and 2nd raw time) in the BMC event with Chris

I did run a 35.995 with a cone though

Thinking about running the 8/12 event in Dover since it's in between two events in NC.

 

[Nix]

Nice man!

 

[death_roll]

Decided I'm running with the Delaware group again on 8/12, just not in the MR2, expecting lots of torque steer and fwd one wheely burnouts

Have an event in NC on 8/6, big ES field, should be fun.

Nice man!

Come to the dragon this year and then you can ride in it, I "might" show up with the Rival 1.5s on it for some unfairness, just gotta decide if I'm really gonna go to the meet this year.

 

[Nix]

I am thinking i will rent a car and come to the dragon and just ride with people.

I'm one of only two 9th gens that run regularly in my area and the only Si, wish more came out around here. I'm also in STX against the barrage of FRS/BRZ twins...

 

[ron v]

Lol. I've only done one event in my si and it seemed like more then half the crowd was bro/frs's. After I'm done tuning I'm gonna go give it another whack.
