Alex, looks like fun. I am jealous of the Diablo sighting. I've been to Nelsons, and been around Nelsons, just never in the driver's seat. After a lap or two you really get an appreciation for how well Mid-O is kept.
I did some Auto-x'ing this weekend. No pics, I was flying solo. BUT, I do have a video of my best run.
Bobby, course was very similar to the last one but a little more wide open. A lot of 2-1 shifts (3 for me). A couple of little straights you car would have tore the f' up! Their next one is in July but it's Porsches only, so essentially, the next one for us is August.

Yo Dawg, good stuff! How'd you place?
Did they give you any trouble for the DB's this time???\
Next time we'll have at it fo sho!
Did pretty well. Ended up 2nd in class with that d@mn RX-8 taking 1st and having the overall fastest time of the day. Why can't he just stay home?!? 
My best time officially was in the low 56's, though I hit high 55's one lap with a cone. Thing is, the cone I hit was a friggen staging cone before the timer was even tripped. They counted it against me. Oh well, I didn't want to be a poor sport and it wouldn't have gotten me past the RX-8 anyway.
No troubles with the dB's. I told the guy I put a different muffler on it. He recalled I was only about 4 over the limit and said it shouldn't be a big deal. Last I heard of it. w00t.
