STS is a brutal group...makes me glad I'm in STX.

Yeah, seriously. I think we need to pick up our game a little bit.

I had a blast in Kev's car! I should've tried to put the power down even earlier, might've sneaked into the 67s.

I ran a 68.340 in Kevin's L

and in Rebecca's EVO8 I hit down to 63.828 (+1 - JUST tapped it). That's good for 11th overall and 13th in PAX. This is a STOCK evo mind you, with RE01Rs. Such a great and amazing car.

Glad that you had a blast. I should really thank you for helping me dial in the car and for coaching me for the first few runs. Definitely a lot of fun. Definitely looking forward to next weekend.

I need to start staying for fun-runs. 3 runs isn't enough for me to learn much.

Next round I think I'll hang around till the end for fun runs.

It is easier to see in person than it is in the video. It isn't really that bad. Just follow the white lines and the pointer cones. As for your question about loose gravel. There was actually a lot of loose gravel.

Glen, by 8, just by raw time. About 15-16 if you want to add the cones to it.

Thanks Edison. I am getting a little closer to the WRX pack. Not too far behind. It is getting there. There is still some time that I can definitely pick up. Should be able to get me on the outskirts of the WRX pack.
