Same course for both events, by the end of the day I was 23 in PAX. I was bouncing off the limiter for more than I'd like to so in 2 parts of course I went into 3rd gear.

A.M. Event #7 1st - 61.186

P.M. Event #8 1st - 60.486

Why change something that was fun and perfect. Besides the morning was cold and the afternoon/evening was hot, so it was for sure different in certain areas. BTW I was sastest Car in PAX with 200+ treadwear.

Out of all the cars/drivers I helped, this MINI S was my favorite, I took a spin in, helped and gave him some nice advice. He does motorcycle racing at NJMP and other tracks but first time autox and it's a father/son track team. I was working grid and instructor duty yesterday. After 5 minutes in it and my ears were done and I had a headache for the rest of the day, felt like throwing up. (almost a Marc/CRX moment)

My excuses include:

1. Tim's seats didn't hold me enough.
2. His car wasn't prepped correctly.
3. The way Tim mounted his camera blocked my view when looking ahead.
4. Not enough boost.

That mini belongs in prepared, not ST. ST does not allow removing interior, even with a cage.

Congrats to Mike on the PAX win at the Philly event yesterday. I came in 3rd with a FS mustang right between us.

I think the Mustang drivers name is Ron. He has slapped me quite few times in Pax in the past. Him and Daddio go at it in FS but Daddio usually beats him.
For you all who don't know, Mark Daddio is an autox legend. His nickname is the Alien.

Thanks Shoe, wish they would get Chase's name out of the first spot, its cramping my style! Want to post that ish in here in all its glory.

Shoe almost got me on his last run (though it was a cheat re-run imo ). I think its cool that we average 2-3/10's difference in time almost every event, we are pretty evenly matched. Other cool fact is we have finshed first (either one of us) in PAX at every CBP event - I think ... Shoe am I right?
Nationals is in less than 2 weeks, I hope we can take this out there. I really need to perform this year, feel I have completely failed at Nationals the past 3 years. That is going to change this year.
