gallery 1
gallery 2
gallery 3

race results

first race on the free hand-me-down Koni adjustable shocks my friend Jamie gave me... took some getting used to and adjusting... I actually spun the car for the first time this year on my 2nd run

ended up in 8th place (out of 75) overall
6th fastest car (2 of those were open wheel beasts :eek: )
2nd place in class by ~0.3 seconds

highlight pics:
Evo8, mods = race tires, shocks, catback


transitioning on the "new" Konis


1st place in my class by just a tad


this family (Mom, Dad and thier daughter Mary) raced this AFTER racing thier 1994 Grand Sport C4


a rare Mazda 323 GTX (turbo AWD)


on the faaarrr left you can see the forumla ford that was pretty quick

Congratulations on a good event!

I'm working timing and scoring for NASA Midwest

Do you run any road events?

I've logged around 20 hours now with NASA Southeast and occasionally Mid-Atlantic (formerly NASA-Virginia)

Road Atlanta
VIR North
Roebling
Rockingham

I'll be adding CMP later this summer to the list
