Notes/Comments: Considerable improvement over my old personal best of 2.10.XX. Had some great instruction on Saturday that helped me save off five seconds. Still room for improvement, however.

Track: Road Atlanta - Nasa SE Toy run 12/6/2014
Lap time: 1:53's taking it easy in pouring rain (1:39's dry race pace)
Car: Evo IX
Mods: ST3 Legal, BFG 265 R1S tires
Notes: Qualifying on rain tires but I never got up to speed due to fogging windshield, learned to not forget anti-fog or RoaS again. However this was my first started race of the season so I didn't want to get into any battles with people who were there for points. Everyone went out on slicks for the race because the track dried up and the Radar started emptying, however the racing gods had other ideas. High 40's amb temp.

Started P8 overall, ended up P3 overall and 1st in class. Enjoy!

A few mistakes - turn 1/2 are tricky. Very weird corner.

Supply and demand, more racers, less available weather = tracks gotta make up for lost time lol.

But yes, even with the whole 4 events I got to this year - it's seriously depressing that she spends 95% of her life on jacks and plugged in lol. Went to Andretti speed world for a work event last week and whooped everyone, only to remind my jello arms to thank god we have power steering in our 3000 lb sleds haha.
