My god he's so nice and early everywhere!

The turnaround is interesting though. I wonder if going that wide was on purpose or not.

Is there an award for tight grouping of times? 4 of my 5 runs were within 0.067 seconds, and my first and last runs of the day were only 0.014 sec apart haha.

That's unusual for me. It usually takes me a few runs to get up to speed.

Yes...after my first run, I was certain I'd catch you. Five runs later, I'd improved all of 0.15 seconds...bah!

Season Points have been updated. Looks like we're about half way through the season. Time to turn up the wick...

Wait a sec...how is it that Taylor and I are tied after drops, but I'm leading (by one!) in raw points, yet he's in third to my fourth? And don't feed us any BS about alphabetical order..."Jamie" is before "Taylor" in the alphabet. ;)

Its just the drops, I think Phillip went with an older (incorrect IMO) formula with the most recent updates that drops 3 of your 5 events (which I don't know that that makes any sense at this point in the season should be zero dropping at this point IMO). You are leading Taylog by 1 in raw points and that's what matters most. Also you both should be ahead of Jason, as he has missed 2 events so far but the three drops don't hurt him as bad because of it. Makes perfect sense right? LOL

Just look at the raw points and ignore the drops, you're in 2nd, Ben has the lead any way you look at it. :)

The drops file wasn't supposed to be posted, that was me messing around. I must have sent Loren the wrong file.

We know how to count/add. I know I'm screwed for a T shirt. No biggie Phillipe Park. Too many ringers at the horseshoe pit. BUT that won't stop me from showing up in S1 or S3 for the last 6 events :thumbwink:

Same. My new goal is to beat Phillip in his clapped out s4 car. Unless he fixes his new clapped out s4 car...

Sigh.. I think this will be my first season since 2012 not getting a T shirt! I may need a new goal too.
Anywho, I'm enjoying the results of rusty's improvements and we will be faster in a few months.
