We stuck around later than we should have on Sunday to get as much open track as possible. Made for a pretty miserable drive home but it was worth it!

Hi Andy,
Great driving, those are some pretty respectable #'s.

What do you figure the Pirellies were worth?

Get some new / fresh tires and you will be under 2:00...

Andy,

I just added Saturday, so will be there Fri and Sat. I only saw Chris' name there a few days ago.
I'll be there next weekend w/ARPCA for 3 days. Hope I have tires for MORPCA!

Both of us know that speed yellow IS the fastest color anyway. So much about the car. But how you driver around the Glen is just sublime, so relaxed and smooth. Thanks for sharing

Awesome! Looks like The Glen is one of those tracks where you have to be in the zone, and you're clearly in the zone!

Around 650 miles since ring and pinion install and refresh of the transmission.

37k prior to that work. There wasn't anything wrong with it when I took it apart but there was a lot of "while you are in there" stuff that was refreshed while it was apart.

whoo, talking about being in the zone, i watched a bit of the indy car qualy at watkins glenn this weekend.
I think rossi put down a 123.XX.

The track that looked claustrophobic and unforgiving on andy's viddy looked awesomely intimidating in the in car driver POV shots.

Wow - that's a fast circuit. Should be a great laugh in a GT3
