Rob,

No, I'll be in Long Beach for the ALMS/IndyCar race this weekend. I don't think I'll get a chance to race until July/August of this year.

Awesome man.... I'm sure you are missing the hell out of the car :/

I cannot wait to get back to VIR, my favorite track!!! I'll be there in June for the Rumble At The Oak Tree event... Pulled my fastest lap time last year 2:03, time to hunt down the 2 flat

No doubt you should hit the 2 flat. The guys I was running with were running 200-201. The cars were a C6R and a prepped track GT2. The 2 seconds they had on me was from the exit of hogpen to S/F. Took me all lap to get back to them by the roller coaster and then they'd pull on me down the front.

Nothing beats hp adn you GT2 guys sure as hell have it

As you know though Dell, HP doesn't make you fast around those corners, if anything it makes it harder to pilot the car fast and only makes it scarier to handle But yes it helps on the straight!

I need your instruction , come drive my 2 in June

That's a bad idea because he might pop off a 1:58 and then you're going to be so pissed at yourself.

Isn't that the truth. Nothing associated with this hobby /sport is free.

That's why I'm also bringing the Turbo to the event next month. I need some seat time on the track experiencing WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH

What event in June are you doing? I'm doing the 3 day event at the end of may with first settler's. Great event!

Cool. Looking forward to crunching some numbers. I will be a VIR for the First Settlers event as well and the Chin event on July 5-6th. Funny how VIR is my home track and it's 11 hrs from CT.

R, you two timing son of a bitch. I thought you were only getting data from me?

Dell, if you can't track down your files, I have them archived and backed up continually. They helped me hugely.
