Someone put a pinch cone on the entry to be "V" curve with the hopes of keeping everyone off of the grass. The result was that many went off into the grass on the other side. I asked my son Anders six times, " What's on the other side of the V?" Answer, "A ditch." We never even got close. Obsticles like that are why we take course walks and look ahead when we're driving. Fear makes you remember better. I worried about the gocart a couple of times. He couldn't look that far ahead, the grass is tall.

You're right, that is why we put the cone there. We also put the one before it there so unnamed people would not go extra wide, plus as another hint to SLOW DOWN and treat the cone like a slow pivot cone. I had a hard time getting my big pushy car around that even if I was just a hair too fast in and I could tell the difference in that my terminal speed was low to mid 80's at the end vs 90's.

This was definitely a learning experience and we will do better next time now that we know what to expect. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT WE ALL TALK THIS UP SO THAT NEXT TIME WE HAVE 70+ ENTRANTS. Heck this event was so good that even Graham came and had a good time LOL

Any way to get the results from our "unofficial" runs?

All of my runs are 3 seconds slower than what I want them to be. Could you please do the needful? :wink:

Yup.... Missing Mike Rose, NOV 65, red mustang. He had signed up on motorsports reg and he drove. He's a newb that I had asked to join us when I talked to him at the last mustang meeting. I know he was also taking pictures and may not have known he had to work, so I'm not sure if his times were counted. Can you check please? We'll get him on track at the next event. At least he did take pictures....

I counted him as working. He was taking photos and I had Mina be his spotter.

All 4 of his runs were DNFs, it must be not counting him for some reason because of that. I'm going through AXWare trying to figure it out now.

Yeah Entry 15 out of 16 is missing, it just skips NOV entry 15 on the reports..... more digging!

All this event did was underscore how badly I have to get my RX-8 fixed before next year.

Rodney, Mike Rose's missing entries have been corrected and he now shows up on all 3 results sheets.

Is that the first time a LAD class entrant won FTP?

Pretty impressive driving!

Excellent, thanks! Disappointing to see he DNF'd every run. I'll have to talk him into taking the novice school. My evil plan is once again working.... hehehe. Poor newby, he has NO clue how much money he's about to spend.... :twisted:
