We did a true 24 hour race back in January in FL - that was rough.

Started at midnight, ended at midnight (new Years Eve...)

We'll be there.



Just put a fresh coat of spray paint on the car last week, so it'll be nice and shiny.

LeMons!!! again, a very good time had by the Rusty Bolt Racing team in the Miller Lite 944/962. it was my first time droving a 944 on track and it was pretty fun. my first session out I had a problem locking up the tires on braking, but I figured it out eventually... Also, Lupin destroyed a tire and big thanks to Andy for noticing that before I went out Saturday.

the e36 team didn't fare so well on day 2. they had made it up to 5th place over all when the shifter decided to fall into the transmission tunnel. their track side repair lasted maybe 15 minutes, then it happened again. they threw in the towel with a little under 2 hours to go sunday.

hyperfest daisy dukes contest was nice too.
