Paul, did you get that issue from the 3-day event at VIR in late NOV resolved? Ever figure out what it was?

While my 2001 Carrera is just a street Stock H car, I thought it would be cool to have the RC version. I intend to paint it Seal Grey like my car. Have fun at the Zone 2 DE.

No I can't make it as I want to do the Road Atlanta Club Race 03/23 to 25/2012. I have been at Zone 2 the last three years. Of course, 2010 was most memorable when I drove through that coolant dropped by a BMW at Turn 1. You guys have a great time!

Red will probably drop down to high 40's by the time the weekend comes along. Although 60 makes it more fun at VIR

Zone 2 tries to separate red and black by horsepower. It's been working pretty good the past few years. Your truly doesn't have the cojones or power to keep up with the herd of GT3's in Red.

I am thinking there were 65+ registered last year. The first day can be frustrating with that many cars. But normally by the middle of day 2 the pace and passing improves.

Yes it was. Amazingly only body damage but $10,000 worth. Fender, Door, Quarter, Rear Bumper cover. Frame is fine and no suspension damage at all! Thank goodness for that tire wall!
