Response to the Mayor:

Bring your A-Game this month. I don't want to buy a 2nd set of wheels and can't get sticker tires for my car. So, this will be your best chance to beat me since the down pour days in Oct and Nov! :grin:

See you out there, can't wait to push my car a little harder this time.

The early days you had an AWD automatic 911 racing all alone in S0 booted out of S1 with PSS tires. I had PSS tires too. Then you got RS3's and I fell a little behind. You deserved to get rained on :lol: Now you have entered the Realm of Ken's Supercars which is way out of my reach called GDP Racing. A friend years ago started that group after I kept saying "God Damned Porsche" at every event in BS against rare 944 S2's with coilovers and slotted rotors from the factory. Stock my butt. Next year I won't be racing out of my classes anymore as refuse (never available) to get the F1 option for 17 year old Vette. Carl says I can come back to S1 next season with my shitty attitude, equally shitty tires and assures me Philip will photograph both of us driving totally improperly :cool: .

**Tony you know with this huge turnout watching/listening for missed shifts (making you nervous) AND getting only get 4 runs - you will cone every one. (Bring a big broom or leaf blower and come early. I need a nice clean driving line for all my runs later.) Ask Philip just how good this curse is :twisted:

Good one Loren :dunno: Guess my "A game" is using an Alternate fast driver where I end up being the tire warmer :lol:

Tony's "A' game will be awesome yet insufficient. I know you yoyo's don't know we are actually "friends" who mess with each other. It's called? FAST. Yeah, that's it. FAST.

A course map is like having a prenuptial agreement. Guaranteed someone will get screwed. There's memorable ways and lawyer ways. You want that in writing?

Looks like a good map to get a few runs in and still keep the run groups short in the July heat.

Tony what were you thinking? A silver Spyder? Don't use #130 for sure.

Nice. Mine's gray actually. The silver with red interior is the most commonly chosen color combo. Not for me though.
