Wow, I didn't even know anyone was there taking pictures!

Nice pics.

Who was it I talked to with the silver WRX? I was in the silver 240SX.

There are a couple silver rexes. Was it a wagon? If so, could have been Ed (Impala AutoX SS in i-club) or Leo (dunno if he is on here).

If it was a sedan, could have been Mark Mervich or Judd Leyson (don't think they are on here).

Yeah, definitely a lot of Subarus there! It was a sedan. Running ST-X I believe... He said he had a AE86 he was working on.

What times did you guys post? I got a best of 47.7 which wasn't all that great but I improved by 1 second every time which is a good thing.

Nearly all the rexer's run STX . What did he look like?

My best posted time was a 48.5 or so, but I disocvered I am running on basically bald tires and without my swaybar, so I would hope to usually be sticking with Rob (2cam16) @ around 46 or 47.

Doug : thanks for the pics!!

It was a bit of a rough day racing. 46.8, but on my FIRST run. Just got slower after that.

Confirmed that my "skinny" Kumho MX's (215/40R17....skinny but shorter for gearing) have now officially been declared worthless for racing, and are officially gonna get burned off on the street this summer . The gearing help is nice, but the lack-o-grip from skinny tires sure isn't!

Still working on getting the bugs worked out on the Whiteline G4s. REALLY like them for the street, but need some further adjustments before they are "race-ready" so to speak.

I'll be back next month. I won't mess up any points standings by running STX for a Fun Runs. But I should have a good setup that will help me get closer to Ed and Leo's times.


It's GREAT to see doug out there. I'm going to e-mail to get a big picture of me from last may.

FYI y'all, "LMON50" = Leo.

Judd : nice driving in STX-N!

I know that Mark managed to lay down a low 45.xxx time. Pretty sure it was the fastest Subie in STX/STX-N. Leo and I are both on new suspensions (Whiteline Group 4s in both cases), and, well, I think we both have some learning curve and setup tweaking coming up
