Here's a link to some photos at this weekends races.

It was another wide and very fast course that was over a 1 minute in length. We were given 5 runs to lay down the lowest ET.

This is a high speed 3rd gear corner. You do the math on how fast we're going.

Hey Ed, congrats on the SM win. The course looks wide open judging from the blurred scenery.

 

Definitely twice as fast as the Oahu course. I had to grab 3rd gear twice after reaching the rev limit in 2nd. The course was also over 50 seconds for the quick cars and over a minute long for the slower cars.

These kinds of courses test your ability to quickly heel-toe downshift when coming out of the long straights into the tight corners. The length of the course also tested your concentration. Fun stuff.

Here's a pic of my buddy Pete in his 06.

Yup, dat was one fast course. Had lots of fun running that yesterday.
Now we need more STi's there for the next race.

Gotta try and get Keoki to come down and drive.

Oh and I like this pic better.

 

Pete,

You were definitely pushing it in your later runs. Didn't you shave over 9 seconds from your first run to your last???

Anyway, this is how an STi was meant to be driven. There's a reason why it has AWD, Brembo brakes, DCCD and a quick spooling turbo. Can you say Solo 2 racing???

I'm glad you had fun. Now if some of the other guys would start racing...now that would be interesting.

I hope you had fun riding with me.

 

Figure since I'm a noob, run one slow to learn the course and go all ***** after that. Need more Maui STi's to come and race.

When will they be posting the results?

 

The results are usually posted in real time, but our time keeper wasn't at the event. They should be posted in a few days.
