WOW...4th gear finish, what more can is say!

It was a very well run and well organized event. From an attendee standpoint it seemed like everything went off without a hitch. Great job by all. I could get use to easy and fast courses! It was the first time that I've seen brake pads smoke. That God-awful smell almost made me puke in my helmet, but it was worth it. Special thanks to Brian Herring for instructing during most of my runs (and for recently driving to my house on my schedule to install springs for me) and for helping to correct my bad braking habits.

A couple of the Viper guys were fast...Jon in the ACR Viper, Stewart in the custom silver srt-10, and the guy or gal in the black srt-10. All in all, a very good time!!

Oh you said I shoulda tell you when I got into the 53s... no such luck. Over the two day period, I never got faster than 55.4. Oh well. Viper School day was a very nice day for the Azenis. They stayed nice an cool the whole day ;)

NIce guys with the Viper Club. If the guy from your IT department ever needs to buy someone else a Viper, let him know that I am there for him ;)

Special thanks to Aaron Buckly for spearheading this effort for the 4th? straight year. Also for all the folks that came out to help.

In spite of being exhausted today, I had a great weekend, and we certainly did some good things for the club (P.R. with the VIper folks, and funds for the bank account).

Super job everyone!

Scott
