...this made it a snap to load the cones into the trailer (poor Jason) - IMO, this is a best practice as it takes a set of extra lifts out of loading if that makes any sense.

Oooooooh. Well, that makes perfect sense. Those guys are awesome, hope we see them again.

Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.

Very fun event, super happy I was able to put together a good run. Hopefully, I can do that at the future events with less than 6 attempts. That was a very fun course, I didn't run it last time it was used. That last lllllooonnngggg slalom was evil, thankfully I actually like slaloms and knew what I was getting into after pacing it off during course walks, just wish I had remembered to go right on entry every time rather than entering left most of my runs. :-( I'm pretty sure right entry was worth at least 1/2 second. Really looking forward to cooler weather, Florida summer is a bit too long.
