Horrible day

Could only muster a 42.2 in class and 41.9 in fun runs. Cliff had me beat by 1 second in raw time.

Just don't understand why i was:

a) So damn sloppy
b) Couldn't improve much. 5/6 times were 42s, so I was consistently running the same times even though I was changing line, turn in points, shift points... All led up to about the same damn times.

Frustrating!

That sucks. I've never been stung by a bee before, I hope I don't ever find out the hard way that I'm one of those ppl who are allergic.

I did mediocre at best but I'm actually quite happy. My car is back on nice soft springs again and it is much more pothole friendly without giving up much if any. =) The driver, however, could use some more tuning.

I saw all 4 of them, they were just making themselves look like a bunch of ****** with their CF hoods & obnoxious exhausts.

Judging by what I saw it won't be long before a bad accident befalls them...hopefully soon.

In other news my car won STX....I got third but my co-driver DG got his first STX victory. About time, his scratch time has been quickest several times but cones are not his friend.

Lets hope the next course is designed for wider cars, that gate on the back of the course was brutal.
