OwlBoogie.. are you Kanishk? If so I can send an email to the event chair testifying that you worked.
That was a really fun course! Pretty damn bumpy though. You can see from the PAX that the stock cars did really well because of the bumps.
The entire back stretch heading back in was flat out! Prefect for the WRX! Floor it and steer!

I'm not sure if Kanishk reads I-club much. I will however point Pat Kelly (who does the results) towards this thread.
Sounds like I missed one bumpy ride
. Trip over the weekend was OK, but did see an STI in a very unusual place though (quite RURAL Western North Carolina......think Deliverance country.....and yes I can say that because I'm from there 
)!

That was a really fun course. But my practically bald tires didn't like those sweepers that much. I couldn't hold my speed through them. I had to keep letting off when I know the car can handle it. But those flat out stretches were great. Really made my VF30 really happy. But the bumps sucked. That fact that on the back stretch before turning to head back to towards the motor home, this massive dip was right in the path of the next turn. That bumps tells me that the stock struts really don't like the stiff springs. that and I need harnesses. I was all over the inside of the car. I now know what the helmet is for. I hit the pillar separating the back and front of the interior and least 3 times while on course.

Kanishk already got it worked out with Pat Kelly.
I am getting annoyed that PaulC is beating me, but without his support, I would not be leading STX....
hopefully I can keep my lead without pulling team orders

Oh yeah....
what did Lorry do to bump himself into STX? Not saying this is a bad thing, just curious....
Should have the WRX back together (installing some gauges) and ready to go in a day or two!

what gauges did you install?
Also picked up an oil temp gauge, but the adapters I have won't let it go into the block
. Still looking for the right adapter(s) to do that one.
