Thanks, Marty.


Yeah, yeah, yeah. I still have the red Z06 and running it in TTA with NASA. Don't get me started on the Mustangs. I drove our 01 Cobra vert the other day and just don't enjoy it anymore. I guess my gold chain collection is growing at the same rate something else is shrinking. At work yesterday someone tried to tell me that I needed to go to so-and-so dealership in Winston and buy the GT500 sitting on their showroom floor because, "It's FAST!" BLAH! When Ford starts making a car that is truly in the same class as a Z06, I will buy it.

Steve - that rear end wiggle you are afraid of in a Corvette is called "ROTATION". Get used to it and you will be "FAST". :D :lol:

And that class record.... was in TTS. After I stepped up from TTA to run in TTS just so I could have a chance at winning a free Hoosier. Guess the fastest TTS guys never run at CMS.

And for track records, I do believe I have been setting class records at our THSCC events this year as well. If we kept track of them. Which we do not. So oh well. Who's counting....

Did I mention all of this was in a full weight (actually more than stock due to the rollbar), street legal car? Yay me! :shock:



On the real side of racing as opposed to flying qualifiers, Jason and Evan put on a GREAT show of racing. I watched the entire first race and took a couple hundred pics. Definitely a lot of good maneuvering and side-by-side running. Watching SpecE30s race definitely makes me want to get one and join the fun. :idea:


-Kevin

not necessarily all of us, but kevin and i ran very similar lap times last month at cmp (1:55s) in the TT. due to the heat it was about 2 sec slower than my fast lap earlier this year.

BTW,
Wes still owns the ASP record at CMP with a 1:43.418

And we are working on getting all the class records up.

Good point, I forgot about his October runs. Speaking of which, I should be able to knock some off of my June "holy hot weather" times with the cooler weather of the Fall.

It will be fun to see the two of you with Danny Smith and Eric H.

I think all four of you will be very close together. I am also betting that Mark Icard will be back in the 1:30's.

I am at a terrible disadvantage to those guys considering my full street trim weight. Oh well, at least I get to run the AIR CONDITIONER while waiting on grid!!!!!! And listen to the RADIO!!!!

:lol:

But you have the most HP except for possibly Eric and a lot better aero. Should be a wash. It will be close.
