I think I would have been faster in the miata, but 8 years of development on the miata vs 1st time out with the f500... its going to take me a while to get the hang of this new thing. I'm battered and bruised, but happy to be racing again!

Hey Pat,

It was great to see at AutoX again! Miata guy in a STi now! WOOHOO!

If you're still here on July 21st, come on out to RallyCross, we'll find you a co-drive!

Aloha, Avery

Man, I was rusty. Been on the bike too long I forgot how to drive a car, hard. Glad we have another event soon for me to redeem myself. Hah!

On a side note, I'm exhausted. I forgot how much standing in the sun can drain you.

Ugh...Miatas are fun but not always the best cars to race. I hope we can get Fran's car running soon as a stop gap until (if ever) mine gets done
