sounds like it. I was at the south jersey event, had some revlimiter action too ... in first

was fun regardless. very difficult course to read. had one set of gates that you went through 3 times and lots of tight gates. Did not like the ending, which was really slow.

congrats mike.

Yea, and I had 5th place all but wrapped up until Pete improved his best run by 1+ seconds on his re-run. Good stuff Pete. Chu found a ton of time in his re-run as well. My final run started with an almost complete spin. I'll have to try harder next time to make it a full 360.

Definitely a fun course. That last section was a blast.

1. Probably

2. I very likely may come out. On the registration page, they offer a 'Gold pass entry' for $100. If you make the purchase, you choose when you run and you don't have to work. I guess we won't see an 997tt owners out chasing cones.

Anyone else notice that the re30 has the same design motif as the stock bbs'? Split seven spoke wheel but with a lip. I LOVE the bbs' but i think the re30's are on the fug side.

I know some people that work there, they actually asked me about setting something up there

Sounds like you are having a good time

Last thing, there are events coming up at the Meadowlands with NNJ and MS-NE. There is a AM - PM event on August 8th and one on the 15th. We are talking 4th gear courses and off the hook grip, this is per 2 guys I have spoken to from that area. These events will be worth the trip, I think I am going to do the 15th. The 8th PM Autox sounds cool too, racing into the dark is crazy.

Definitely saw your car on a flatbed at the tavern plus a bunch of other autox'ers that day. I was across the street at the new sonic.

would have been 4th place if Dave signed up in Pro... just sayin'

Lemme guess, that spin was in the first set of off-sets. If so thats the same place that got me. Man I wish I was rollin tape for that event.
