I did get a chance to catch up with Don from Straightline, and catch up on old times.
Oh, and your boy Spec has some skillz.

Sharif,
Apparently it was you who brought the rain, as it hadn't rained here for 50+ days. I actually was in the dark that you were coming (PM me next time
) or I would have made an appearance. With the bad weather, I figured it to be dubious at best that the show would go on... Family in town from the mid-west for Easter didn't do much to to help my laziness either. Hope you were able to enjoy yourself none the less. Cheers.

Sharif,
It was a pleasure meeting and talking with you Saturday. Naturally I was pulling for you but after the ¼ mile setback, I wasn’t sure how you’d make up the points. Then I saw one of your road course practice sessions. I couldn’t believe the speed you carried out of Turn 1 into Turn 2. I counted at least two competitors get passed in those corners as if they had lost their will to win. I didn’t get to see the timed time attack runs but congrats on your victory!? I look forward to seeing what the competition can do to rein you in next year
lol

It was challenging for everyone. Combination of bad weather, mechanical issues for some, lack of proper grip/tires for others. Like any competition, everything that can go wrong..did.
I did get a chance to catch up with Don from Straightline, and catch up on old times.
Oh, and your boy Spec has some skillz.![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Spec is definitely a great driver and I'm excited to have him behind the wheel this year...

Plans changed though, and I ended up working a 10 hour off-duty job all day Saturday. I was standing in a construction zone in the middle of the intersection at 32nd St & Baseline Rd as it was raining. I was like... "F THIS!!!! THIS SUCKS!!! I'd rather be at the track watching the event!"... and got back inside my car until the rain stopped!

Congrats on your accomplishment.

Sorry Sharif!
I found out about it at the last minute when someone brought it to my attention that Scott was being a douchebag in your thread on the other site. I had plans with my girlfriend already when I found out about the event.
Plans changed though, and I ended up working a 10 hour off-duty job all day Saturday. I was standing in a construction zone in the middle of the intersection at 32nd St & Baseline Rd as it was raining. I was like... "F THIS!!!! THIS SUCKS!!! I'd rather be at the track watching the event!"... and got back inside my car until the rain stopped!
Wish I could have been there, but I gotta make that $$$ to pay for my car project.
Congrats on your accomplishment.
Hope to meet you another time soon at some other event.![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

man GST's new areo looks really over the top. that car did really well last year. cant wait to see what it does this year with new areo.
Congrats to forged. amazing that the GTR platform is doing so well with minimal modification. would have drove out but a ticket back home to hawaii in first class couldnt be turned down.
