Damn, that was some fun driving today you guys !

everybody did great and I got to really see how well those those Hankook RS3's handled on Hot Black top pavement..........very awesome !

I am so happy with these tires for my skill & level of a driver. They really helped me around this track today.

Thanks for all you guys for bringing something for the Potluck.....great turn out....missed Damon, Gavin, & Jake !

Emad, how did you like those RS3's ???
Here is vid from my best time.

^ Love how your car turns and goes the where you direct it. I can't wait until I get new tires. Too bad it'll probably be next year. Good driving, Chris!

Michelles chewed my *** out for going today. Apparently I've been a bit selfish about always doing what I want to do and basically placing her second next to the things I wanna do. Apparently I'm going to have to find a way to balance everything out and that may very well include cutting back on some of the races. Probably only gonna be doing the vq champ races for now unless she's got something going on other times and I can come out for an extra one here and there.

Chris, it was nice to have your company Sir.

Do good work up in CHI - town .... and don't worry, about missing out on anything...your in the prime of your life to excell and get your career started in the right direction. Hard work and play time work both together.

Work hard to play hard my friend.

Look like someone got an A$$ chewin'

Sorry Pat....but you have to have a give & take with your obsessions. A nice balance and understood agreement before hand is always a good thing in any relationship.

Looks like Michelle chewed the Pat !

Chris - Thanks for putting the vid up. Very impressive. Great response. I learned the hard way what decreasing front tire pressure does when you leave the backs alone... I was dealing with massive oversteer in the afternoon! lol. Still put up better times than the morning though.

Chris - Best to you in Chicago! Chris's advice is solid. Make some good money and the fun will follow.

Patrick - See ya around when you can!

Great seeing everyone again! Now I've got to hurry up and mow the yard before the heat!

Good seeing/meeting everyone, pretty good day all around. Thanks again for cooking Chris, and everybody that brought stuff.

That video Jeeeeeze I need to get some decent rubber before I go back, just awesome how much grip you've got, dude.

Side note, I'm completely dead today, it's not even funny. After I left there I went to help my dad with our Camaro, finally left the track in Sanger at midnight. That..is what we call a long day of racing

I got an e-mail from Jerrett;

Here are the results from their #3 AutoX.


Congrats to Jerrett for a great last run to place first ! He was freakin' flying on that last run.

Sorry for the images.....I thought they might open larger. I'm sure he will post in this forum soon.

Damn, Chris! That's some great handling! I can just see myself understeering all over that course. Although, my only runs have been in rain so of course I understeered the whole time. Looking forward to coming out this summer!
