ROFL. Thanks Q and Stu for not making me look stupid. I have no idea wtf I was/wasn't thinking. Needless to say, I was pretty embarrassed when I realized it.

I was wondering who the 350/370Zs were when I was looking at the results the other day. Looks like you DNF'd the 1st run but then quickly got used to the course and didn't hit any cones the rest of your 4 runs.

Once I get myself and my car in properly working conditions, whenever that may be, I should be out there pretty often again. I usually try to go to all but BMW events. Glad to see we have another guy interested in racing and actually attending an event!



Looks like our friends in STR and STU (other classes too) did pretty well, too:

I thought maybe you were on your phone so you didn't see the video title.

Still guessing that it's related to head gaskets but no idea how extensive the damage is until it's torn down.

Travis on the weekends Hard 8 is really crowded...we would have to get there either super early and beat the crowds....or super late after they die down.

Anybody ever had problems with Google Chrome giving you an error message saying "Your profile could not be opened correctly? I think I downloaded some sort of malware that messed it up. I literally tried all sorts of stuff, including manually uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome. I am still getting the annoying error.

Hard Eight BBQ is one of the best BBQ places around here, but +1 on it being really crowded. That, and the small lot won't be able to accommodate us (or risk dings).

I get an error message every time I open Chrome. "Your preferences cannot be read". I tried a fix that I found online, but it didn't work. I just click OK every time.

Ya I tried everything. It just happened when I downloaded some stuff recently. I have to press OK multiple times before it would open up.
