My night was okay. High school friends showed up at my place unannounced. The thing was I was on my way home from Oakland. Had dinner with them and went home and crashed.

that is a great video. i am surprised SCCA lets you have lose objects in the car like that. NASA HPDE will not allow anything hanging from the mirror or any loose objects in the car what so ever.

Thanks!

I love them, great shots.

The 1st one above makes me feel I was doing well through that slalom, as the car is pretty much where it needs to be, also the same goes for the 2nd picture, I never hit that particular cone, so I was practically right on top of it.

This makes me even more pissed off cause It seems I was driving pretty well, but still was slower than I should have been.
