I checked with the chief instructors and we did end up finishing first overall in green group this past weekend.
It's hard being a "momentum" guy in a group like green. Glad to hear we were 1st. What's the prize for winning green group? I don't remember seeing the media blitz...

Brian,
Next time we're at the same track I can show you what I did with the Miata. Set up for a temporary passenger seat - bolts in quickly and solidly. Out for racing, in for DEs. About 6 oz. extra weight when the seat isn't in (3 "eyes" for attaching harnesses).

Or write a detailed tutorial with photographs while going down the straight between 10 and 1.

I know because my 90 hp GTI allows for time to do things, like check out tv's new fall season, on the straight.

Had a wonderful weekend. So nice to remove the rust after a long winter.
Thanks to the instructors and all PCA members that make these weekends so much more than just driving.

PS- I have some Blue group videos if anyone is interested.
