Looks like it's going to be a great course, a little less hosspower intensive than last time. Very cool that you post the course online in plenty of time for us to check 'er out. Unfortunately I have another commitment and can't make it, so this would be a great event for Teaguer and ///Mike to enter.

The reschedule helped me out a bunch.  I was going to be one day back from a week on the lake up in Arkansas, right now I'm free for the 12th.

Maybe I can make up to some spot higher than 8th this time.

Have a good one,

I am pretty sure Michael H in the Z agrees with you Mike... I think he finished 9th or something ...


Ohhhh he puts the knife in, and then gives it a twist.....

I kept thinking the tires would heat up and give more stick, but they never seemed to. I over drove the car way past the limits of front traction, and had incredible understeer. That was my worst performance in three years......Ouch!

I'll be much more conservative at TMS next time.

FYI, just registered via DLB, and it didn't let me use my permanent number (61).  I ended up using 999 just to get registered, but I need to get that changed.  Do that Saturday morning?

See 'ya then!

Had a great time even if I didn't place very well.  Class Z has really stepped up this year, at least for the TMS events.  When Jim comes in 5th or so with A6 tires on his C5 you know the competition is stout!

Got a little warm in the afternoon, but the wind saved us!

See y'all in July!

Fun event, first one of the year for me with BMWCCA.  Got beat by a very nice run by Mr. Kenny Baker.
