This.

Heck, I've been at this for more than a couple years now and that's still my preferred method.
Racing... because golf only requires one ball.

Tony,

Have you seen all the crazy cars in S0 tomorrow morning. Yikes. It's like "Who's who of Supercars."

Somehow my wife and I caught Ron Rice's cold that contaminated all of Hernando County so I have a good reason for having a swelled head and red nose tomorrow. You might hear me in the PM HONK....HONK as you drive away. At least I know what to expect out of Ken Marion in the PM:) FTA = fastest time of the Afternoon.

Have you ever gotten only 1 point for an event? A first for everything. They don't give stickers for "participants". The only "P" you'll see might be on your car :rolling:

Good luck Tony.

Looks to me that the afternoon session will set FTD.

Jeremy Ogle is back with a Toyota favorite FRZ. Yes they are impressive but:

Jeremy, if you want a free ride see me in the PM and you'll trade that car in quickly and return to S1:)

Doug the honeymoon is still is in full effect with the FRS, but I am tempted to be tempted.......

I had shaky knees at the thought of the Cayman S in the new S0 class. Lions, Tigers and Z06's and all that.

It is so nice to have that extra "Mississippi" between cones to gather yourself. Us mortals need the extra time.
