That was really fun. I have to thank Dave O'Maley for teaching me to enter wide and go deep in the 180 at the top of the hill on the lower half of the parking lot. I suspect that alone was worth 1or 2 seconds compared to entering tight and pinching the exit. The car just seemed to like the rest of the course, which probably means I could have gone faster everywhere else.

A great event today, great turnout and the computers didn't break (much) so I guess I did okay hah. Not dead last my first time in Pro either, so that's good.

each yr I have to re-learn what to do to make the results show on my computer … I can get the PAX results,but nothing else :(

I've tried re-fresh several times … (this is a relatively new Mac, if that matters) can anyone steer me in the right direction ? ( I "hate" be so computer dumb :lol: )

I'll echo Bob … this was a great way to kick off the new season .. :rockon:

JB … really a fun course, even with the tight finish corners, it seemed to flow really well ,,, and for my under powered crapcan there were a couple of WOT corners … those are lots of fun

interesting fun facts...
chalking course and DNF's

STM topped the list with 9! Then most other classes had 1 or 2 (Pro even had 2) For a total of 23 out of a theoretical 420 runs. 5.48% ?

That sounds pretty darn good to me. :rockon:

and secondly.. Tire Class... was not missed! :lol:

the only "problem" is, if we don't get enough rain, the chalk (flour I'm guessing) will still be there on the 9th …. LOL

Coatney The Destroyer.

That has to be largest margin of victory in pro that I can recall.

Looks like Gerbia woulda gotten 3rd if not for the cones. He still on those 2 year old Hankooks? Watch out, if so.
