Just wanted to say congratulations to Gwen. Looks like she went to Danville last weekend and laid the smack down on the Ladies class winning both days. Congrats Gwen!

Thanks, Stephen. It was a good weekend.

I hated to miss the Jimmy V. Sounds like things went well in Sanford. Congrats to you as well for your win in Pro class, and to all who did well in Sanford. You and Judi should seriously consider a "vacation" to Lincoln next month! :wink:

I'm still considering giving that a shot, but it probably wouldn't be this year. Too much LeMon's and THSCC HPDE stuff going on at the moment. Next year might be a possibility though.

Congrats, Gwen! I hear you've got serious bling as a result. Need. pics. now.

BTW, There's a growing list of people in our club who could hold their own at NT events....we just need to get them motivated!

My biggest regret is not going to Nationals sooner. My advice would be not to worry about being "ready" for national events. Just go. Have fun. Drive the best that you can. The entire experience far exceeds the few minutes you're actually behind the wheel. The whole atmosphere, the people you meet.....the parties, everything just makes it something to enjoy with a group of people who share a common illness. :D

Here's a bird's eye view from an F125. Day one and day 2. Launch interval was way too long on Saturday, but was better on Sunday.
