Still covers the radiator-- that's the important part, right?

Oh yea... one more comment:

NEMESIS!!!!!



What a ride that must be!

Perhaps a small "cone deflector" is in order?

Also good for deflecting cats, squirrels, small dogs, children...

My last run was almost my best until I screwed up

Maybe you could get one of your old Jeep buddies to fab you a 4" pipe bumper for it? That ought to do the trick.

X2 on every comment over a perfect day at the auto-x; organization, safety, lunch, weather, etc.!
Awesome time filled with lots-o-fun...
Thanks to everyone involved,

Jeremy has updated the Season Championship Points. Things are heating up! There are some solid leads in a few classes, but we're only half-way into the season, so much can change!

You and Gerry both did a great job. With the right wheels and wider tires you could have easily been 3 seconds faster and Gerry had Doug in the RX8 sweating for a minute. Keep coming back even with your current setup and you will get faster.

You need to tell Mary to stop feeding the stalker. Plus, I heard feeding the stalker cones is like giving a dog chocolate.

I'm gonna repeat my favorite phrase of late: "You can't buy talent."

Sure, they might be a little faster with "the right wheels" and wider tires. But, really, all they need are GOOD tires, a decent alignment, and a bunch of practice. I had Doug on the run until his last run, and he still only had me by about 4/10ths. I have neither the right wheels or wide tires. 1.5 year old 195/60-14 Star Specs on stock Miata wheels.

I like to encourage people to learn first, spend money later.

All very true. That's why I wrote the first and last lines. The second line was merely a reference for what could be since I heard him and Gerry talking about it at the event. I think they both have good driving ability and I hope they continue to come out on a regular basis and improve upon what's already there.

I had fun racing, got 2nd place , but that's ok! I'll try next time! Thank you all!

For some reason I didn't record my last run of 53.4 which was my best of the day

This is my second best run of 53.8, took the turn around a bit wide, but the rest of the run was good.

If you said 20yo stock shocks, we'd be impressed...metal fatigue doesn't set in that easily.
