Something about 75 ft-lbs of extra torque. Assuming I'm making anything close to the factory spec at 280,000 miles....

I think Ben deserves some credit, myself. If it was the car, Jason and Taylor wouldn't have finished ahead of him in their Miatas 5 times this season.

Jean has to give up her spot in the afternoon group, if anyone's looking.

Yeah, but the last time there was an opening, one person registered two people, and so we were one over (system quirk). So, dropping Jean doesn't actually open up a slot this time.

Looks like rain is on the menu. Wonder how the site does with a lot of it.

It's reported to have excellent drainage. It's sloped to the East side, and has ample drains along that side. I'd bet that East side parking lot floods, though.

But, weather forecasts are feeble at best. Be optimistic!

Typical Florida forecast. It'll rain somewhere. Maybe where we are, maybe not.

Unlike Tiger's Baseball. Autocross is rain or shine. Man up. Drive a RWD high HP car in the wet smoothly.
