I had a great time (my 5th run wasn't my fastest, but I felt it was my best), and so did Kat on her rides. She asked me yesterday "So when are you going to teach me to autocross?"

I think I figured out how I can get myself some coilovers! Yellow_Colorz_PDT_01

Game over. :cry: I forgot about that silly thing about dropping the lowest score. Penalizing good attendance makes no sense!
Drew and I were talking about this... it's probably going to be hard for me to make up the points with the 2 events we have left, since we've both missed 2 so far.

Scott,

Thanks a bunch for taking/posting the videos.

One never gets to see their own car run...great second vantage point...boy I sure was too far or too close to those 'pine cones' (as my 3 year old calls them)!

If it was deadmeat out there taking pictures, they will probably be posted in here or here. It'll probably take a while, so don't hold your breath. He takes like 5 zillion pictures, so I imagine processing them takes forever.
