you didn't park in the wrong area. i was the white X right near you. i saw you pull in but didn't see you again.
good time today but I feel like a lobster from being in the sun. I only got to talk to a handful guys but there were alot of evo's there today. everyone I talked too was getting faster and faster each run.
didn't get any pics but I'm uploading some footage from my gopro now.

hey good seeing some of you guys there. The sun just kicked my *** today. I kind of regret not registering but I had to check the event out first to see if it was something I'd like to try. I'm glad I went. I was impressed how seriously some of you guys took this stuff as far as prepping the car and overall readiness. Hopefully I'll catch the next one. Hey Chu.....sorry for not saying hello. I saw you with a bunch of guys that I didn't know so I decided to check out the rest of the cars and never got back to you. Pete and......Dave? Not sure but good seeing you guys again. Mark killer spin, I'm sure you were upset but it was nice to see some aggressiveness.
, they're always good people if I'm with them! Glad you came down though.
I was hoping to see more X's there but i guess we were the only two. lame we didnt run into each other. It woulda been nice to talk to another x owner.
First time out with the evo yesterday. Glad to meet you guys. I need to play around with my tire pressures next time, my sidewalls weren't happy lol.
question about the scca classes....cams would put you in Street Mod right?

^^yes, cams bump you to street mod.
here are my runs from yesterday:

best time was a 59.2 even though it says 59.5 in the video. I finally figured out how to add text to video's but was going off memory when I put everything together.
I felt like there was alot more time out there but I just couldn't get the car to do what I wanted it to do. This new suspension is going to take some time to get used to, having a whole bunch of parimeters to adjust isn't always a good thing.

There is way to many comments to try to reply to all of them...
Chu, Chau, Carson, Sna, Will, Marc, Jeff, Ben and Joe, it was great hangin and racing with you guys. CBP is a great time even if it feels like your standing on the surface of the sun. IDK about you guys but my ish is RED today. We need more water next time...
Jim and Dan it was good to see the two of you. Both you guys should get signed up for the next one. It is a lot of fun. Dan I'll probably be seeing more of you in the future. Good Luck on the move.
Ralph, it was meeting and talking to you yesterday and yes cams would put you in StreetMod per the rule book.
Yesterday was a blast... I need to work on my skills a little more. I think a track day is in order real soon. If I forgot or missed anything sorry...
Almost forgot... my last and best run... 61.784

Marc, I'm going to look for you to sit with me next time. I didn't do too bad on my own yesterday, but there was lack of instructors during my heat. There were so many novices in the class, and not enough instructors to go around I guess. Out of four runs, I got one instructor, who helped me alot. Best was a 65.7.
