Good weather, good course, smooth event! Bill and Ron demonstrating their proficiency at the Steve Frank Finish technique! A reunion with some old regulars. And leftover pizza for dinner....Sundays just don't get much better. Those who missed today should make sure they make next month (for which registration opens up Thursday night).

Definitely one of the smoothest-run events we've had in a long time. Of course, all of our events usually run pretty smoothly... but this one was smoother. Kudos to Ron and Ed and all who helped!
Ron's course ended up being great fun!

Yup, thanks guys!
Ron - you're a real trooper. Really enjoyed the event, and the course - both very well done. Mr. Peanut rules!

Had a blast! Definitely one of my more favorite and fastest courses we've run at Brooksville. I never got under 25mph and managed to hit 61mph in one of my runs according to Trackmaster. Awesome run by Jack and Chuck with a difference of .001 to take top 2 in E1 sticking me with 3rd.
Here is a vid of my last run with a little data acquisition via Trackmaster for Android. The internal GPS only refreshes at 1hz so that's why the data seems laggy. I'll have an external bluetooth GPS at 10hz next time.

Had a good time today. Disappointed in my driving, but I still had fun. Great course Ron!

Nice job, guys!
Ed C., big thanks for the co-drive and letting me help abuse your future former tires.
Good times.

Yes it was a very well run event, great job done by Ron and Ed, can't think of anything that stood out as a "problem"; you guys really did put on a great event.
Loved the course, but then again it would've helped if my driving was more on par to my ablities, still had a lot of fun out there.
Loren schooled me again, it's hard to accept getting beat by 1.2 second in your own car

There is always next month though (insert Rocky music).

The timing crew
told you how to improve your driving...of course, buying Loren dinner is probably cheaper. 8)

All around an awesome event today. Chairs did an excellent job and everything went off without a hitch (except for my driving

) . Thank you Loren for taking the time to ride with me and providing the feedback I needed (last run improved by 5 seconds!). I am a newbie to FAST but, I am treated as if I have been around forever. Thanks again to all for a wonderful day and looking forward to next month's event at SPC!!

Ron was pretty worn at the end of the day...wouldn't blame him if he didn't send Loren the results files until tonight.

Ron has the trailer inventory also. But, you can add to his list -- NO chalk dust.

Yeah, no word from Ron today. He really abused his injured back yesterday, I'm gonna bet he's drugged up, chilled out and not worrying about results just yet.
We'll get 'em when we get 'em. Patience is a virtue, and I know you're all virtuous people.
