As far as track courtesy, there is nothing more aggravating than someone in a high-HP car that doesn't lift at the beginning of a straight to let a faster car by, particularly where passing isn't permitted in the corners. When that has happened at Redline events I've gone to, usually people complain to the Redline officials and they have a little talk with the offending driver -- though in reality a lot of those guys either break or crash and eliminate the problem themselves in a Darwinian fashion before the event is over

Congrats to Ryan Gates and Mark Daddio for trouncing the competition in M-AWD and U-AWD!
yeah ryan and daddio were fast!

we unfortunately had issues with our own car which prevented us from running the offical timed sessions..

Ryan busted my chops about it too lol, he wanted a dogfight, and we were going to try our hardest to give him one.

ecu and trans issues sidelined us.

I'm sure that daylight would be a lot smaller if I was able to run 27 psi instead of 17 psi and major exhaust leak

Looking at the results, these events NEED a lot more competition and a lot more entrants to continue to live on it seems. Having over a second separating 1st and 2nd place in 90% of the classes is very discouraging as even the people who win will get bored as they aren't being pushed in the least.

Congrats to all that attended and especially Gates and Daddio on their win. Is this the first overall win for the AMS Evo X?

I don't know how you figure. In AWD modified obviously Gates is in a league of his own right now. However there are many competitive cars that are coming into the pictures. If you look at 2-7th place in M AWD the times are seperated by less than 3 seconds. Most of the cars are seperated by less than a second. I consider that pretty good competition. I would love to see more entrants as well, but I don't consider the competition discouraging by any means.

Thunderbolt is only 90 minutes south of E-town, and 1000 times better. It's a real track lol.

The only reason I would ever go to E-town (If I ever go) is it's only 12 miles from my house.
