crickets.. oh well.. Last Sunday's event was a good one. I believe a sell out? A bit chilly though. My 914 wasn't ready so I tried out the new daily driver. Car was better than driver. Over drove on most of the runs (which meant too much understeer and clipping cones) and when I slowed down to do it right, the car actually gripped and I still hit cones!
Selfishly, I enjoyed searching out the new fancy cars to instruct in... seat heaters are nice! Very nice new Camaro SS with the 1LE package. Running steam roller size 305 tires all around. I believe he put in a top 5 time and the car looked really smooth and relatively quiet for a "muscle" car.

Thanks Dave! Close to a sell out...we had 61 drivers and 66 is the cap. I'll blame the chilly morning weather for a few no-shows and late cancelations.
Here are the results if anyone is interested: http://live.axti.me/results/NytTcUz54 Those SCCA guys (corvette and camaro) sure know how to drive! Thanks to Mr. Core for interrupting their attempt at a lockout.

I think I hit the most cones I've ever hit in one event at this event (8!). I hit 4 (channel cones) on the last run when I decided to try to beat Chris Nolan. Oops. Should have focused on narrowing that 0.17 gap between me and my husband instead. Grr.
Best part was not braking where I usually do -- somehow finally got the nerve, and it was FUN!

Unfortunately our usual photographer couldn't be at the first event, and we were unable to find a substitute.
