Default Mid Ohio weekend
I had my best race weekend at Mid Ohio this past weekend with two firsts. I had the pole in GTS, won my class and was 3rd in GTS and 5th overall. This was a rain race and I was on the new Hoosier wets and everything just worked well. Then on Sunday I qualified 2nd and ended up winning the race. Lots of Oh crap moments but it all was well.

I have to figure out to "make" the movie a and upload faster. The two processes take about 5-6 hours. Maybe I am doing something wrong!!
