Great job to the UW committee for the leg work and vendors for their participation! The planning for next year has already started. If ya'll have ANY ideas/comments let us know. It can only get better!
I think I've gotten Brain interested... We already had a quick talk about a 2nd set of wheels/tires.

And thank you John for scrubbing the tires for me and Ted.....know you know how I feel...
John, RC and Mark.....great job on the course!
But THANK YOU to all who stepped up and took on new jobs! It takes alot of TEAM ETR work to make an event like Adesa a success!

X2 and thanks for letting me flog the miata.
Lin, you gonna remember and put into practice what we talked about driving the course? Make notes and tape em to the steering wheel if you need to.
I will post up notes on sound readings in the next few days. if anyone is wondering. Also, we were spread thin for course workers on the 3rd run group, so no sound readings from that group.
What a blast! Now I just got to stop getting my butt kicked in my own car. I guess 10 years vs .5 year experience will do that! That is my excuse anyway.

That's been happening to me for years. You kinda start getting used to it.
I had a great time this year despite the fact I came in 4th in STM
I have to say a big thank you to Shawn Gebbia and Rob Carpenter for showing me how to drive my car like it should be. You guys gave me alot of good advice that I hope to put to use at the next event. Oh and thanks to Rob that is the first time my brakes have actually smoked enough for me to think they were on FIRE!!!! . With that it became clear that a brake upgrade was soon needed!
I was going to go to this event, but my roommate let me use his autox slot at the Run Through The Hills event up at Smokey's Stadium. Insanely fun day. Lots of ridiculous V8 cars too. Not the typical autox crowd that ETR has.
Still, I really wanted to see if the hype of Adesa was really validated. Oh well, there's always next year.

That's weird. You've mentioned needing brakes twice here recently (which is perfectly fine), but I almost never touch my brakes autocrossing. I guess different cars, and different styles.
