Yes Gavin can drive

Interesting part of the weekend.....Gavin and Amy took their 4.0 out, bone stock never aligned, both of them in the car, Michelin sport cups.

Greek and I on Toyo RA1

They waited for the Greek and I (we were running 2:21ish in light traffic)

Gavin told me that we were about a second a lap faster than him in the 4.0 with Amy based on distance and gap

Smokin' !

Is that the car you guys said weighted like 2500 lbs? or is that a different car?

Jenk did very very well today. Grady & Clarke looked good out there, mostly, but I didn't get their times.

Just to make that 2:14 a little more inspiring, Gavin pulled that time with Amy in the passenger seat! He said something about traffic too..... What?!?

This weekend was a lot of fun as always. Although still bitter we didnt eat at the Greek place....

I owe Randy 3 dinners now, after he showed me better lines. Greek Flag is being mounted to my car as we speak. DeputyDog is bitter and depressed, and I am having a Gyro for breakfast.

2:20.... Im out....

I had a great time, I am still tired, six sections in two days... Wait, maybe was the drinking. I had a lot to learn, I was in the car with Izzone for a few laps. OMG, turn one at that speed was like OH ****TTTTTTTTT, scary fast!

Izzone took Smurfette for a ride couple times. A time she won't ever forget!
