Here is my run with NNJR SCCA this weekend. It was a nice long course, but not enough high speed, diving turns that the Cayman enjoys. I wasn't able to tie it all together and left a bunch of time on the course. The clean run in this video was exactly 2.000 seconds behind Daddio's time, who was also ahead by .4 secs of the SS 997 GT3 driven by last year's Nats champ. Needless to say, got a lot of work to do to find those two seconds... or protest the C6 Z06... lol

Here are a few of my runs at our PCA AX event. I am not in my P but in my Mini. By best laps were the last 4 when I did not have an instructor in the car. Mini is great for AX. Only my 3rd time ever but the Mini pretty much beats all my Turbo friends with a few of them being instructors so much more time behind the wheel.
Enjoy, oh yeah and the start of the video is bada$$ with the GT3 taking off.

I coned away FTD yet again. As luck has it, another friend of mine pulled a flier on his last run and beat my only clean run for his first ever FTD so I'm pretty happy for him, he drove fantastic and was super-excited about it- long time coming! And I'm happy I had last had ONE clean run, lol. I really have to stop hitting cones.

Well, with Daddio and Strano both driving Z06s in AS with you, it'll at the very least be a learning experience! I'll be driving the #87 Boxster in SS and will try to swing by and say hi. It's not my first national event, but will be my first pro; I'm really looking forward to it.

See you there! I'll be in a white #67 Cayman.

Here's my video from this past weekend's Philly SCCA event. 3rd in PAX. In hindsight I think I should have downshifted to 1st for the turnaround. I guess the long gearing has its pros and cons.

Can't wait. Nothing like getting beat by faster cars and drivers to make you want to go faster! It looks like it may actually rain on Saturday, so maybe we'll have an advantage for a little before getting demolished on Sunday...

Chris, Lex, was nice meeting you! And congrats on the trophy, Lex! I hope we all get classed together in BS next year. Here are my two best runs; I know I left a lot of time out there from overdriving and getting sloppy, especially on the left. I ended up a few tenths out of the trophies in SS which was better than I expected to do with such a power disadvantage on this course. Of course, on the same note, I'm also amazed how well Adil and Perry did in the GT4 on MPSS... Brian Conners was just making the rest of us look bad, though. I like the tough competition, and learn a ton every time I come to big event.
