LOL...If I remeber correctly, that was the corner on my First run I ended up straightlining. I had my hands locked at the 9-3 position and really got crossed up in that corner. I didn't expect that much understeer and had to really work hard to get the car to come around. I had fun and can't wait till the next event, I'll definitely be much better prepared.

Usually results appear on Tue or Wed after the event.

I know in STX that Rus Heywood (black WRX Wagon, doesn't post on I-club much though) pretty much destroyed the rest of the field

Big time UNDERSTEER!!!! The course was set up w/ primarily right hand turns (it was the driver side rear that had -2.20 camber), so you can imagine how agonizing it was for me . After the 3 runs, you can totally see my driver side front tire scrubbed up at the edge while the passenger side front was not nearly as bad. I'll make sure to get that sorted out before the next race. BTW, how's the turbo project coming along?
