I had a great time despite some of the worst driving I've done in a year! :evil: My head just wasn't in it and I was doing all sorts of novice-type mistakes; the sorts of things I'd been working out of the students the day before.

Maybe they just passed the bad habits on to me. :shock:

Sure was fun in the rain despite the even worse times I recorded for those last 2 runs. The final run where I got the back-end to hang out from the last turn-around all through the straight and into the finish still has me grinning! :D

One directory of the photos all in their original size, and another directory of all the photos about 1/4 or 1/5 the size, and then you can reference the photo number to the other directory? I dunno.

That would be very helpful. That way we can at least batch download all of the small ones and view them in a slideshow to the find the ones we care about.

I've repeatedly proven to myself by now that my driving needs work. Kenny beats me every time in his WRX with less horsepower and less braking power. I'm totally fine with that, but not by the margin he beats me (regardless of my excessively crappy times this time). Something's broken on my end!
Sounds like we need to swap cars for a run next event.

Thanks for the compliments guys, but I can't take all the credit.

Some of the photos were taken by the group I was with, I think I only took the last 700 or so photos, which would be for the most part, the runs of group b and c, though some of group b were also taken by Greg Sullivans (99) roommate Buddy.

All of group C I think were taken by me, except when I went for a ride in the s2000 ;)

I haven't had a chance to look through them like I usually do, otherwise I'd pull out the good shots, and post 'em up.

It sounds like it was alot of fun. It even looked like more fun when I took a peek at how everything was going on Saturday. I can't wait to get this car fixed so I can come out there and join you all. I am so dissapointed in my car I can't even explain it. My wife says she saw a tear at 11:40pm on saturday night as I got back from the last unsuccessful drive, right at the moment hit me that there was no way I could put electrical tape over an intake boot. I got the intake boot, but the car is still running horrible.

Actually... what Derek isn't telling you is that I tend to take a lot of the pictures at the events as well...

Thanks for the credit... Jerk
