The course was just too cluttered with cones....crazy confusing.....had 3 double backs, etc. I usually finish in the upper middle pack (20-25 out of 55ish). Last week I was 18 out of 53. This week I will be lucky to be in the top 40. I generally always stay on course, but 5 of my 7 runs were OC today. Crappy part was my first lap was just a scout lap and was butt *** slow. Then I went OC 5 runs in a row. Just to score points I had to take it easy and settle for a relatively slow time on my final run. I was 3-4 seconds off the pace of the cars I usually am battling with. It was a poor layout for us Z folks too, but that is no excuse. I did manage to best the 370Z of another club veteran, but neither of us could stay on course worth a damn. On top of everything I cooked what was left of my street brake pads........

/End rant.

You can come out and run as my guest if you want. Today would not have been a lot of fun for a first timer......just too busy of a course. It just sucks because it kills me in the points championship. I will probably be forced to drop this weekend.
