I don't know Erik. I do know they need to show a bit of gratitude to those who sign up for SuperSolo all the time, rather than the usual "if you make a mistake, you'll be sent home, and will be banned for two more events" macho bull**** which DOES make some people stay home...with their money.

ok looks like lewis and i may have our own version of mancation.

lewis wants to do mid ohio and i dont have a problem with that. that will be july 6,7, they are running on the 8th but we dont need to do all 3 days.

road america 8-10 and join the DE club for the mayhem in elkhart, wisconsin

now from there its setup nicely to make the 12hr trek up to mosport for 3 days 13-15. if lewis's schedule doesnt permit. we will head south and just do putnam park 13-15 on the way back to atlanta.

i looked up grattan but the dates are too late with 3ballsracing

I am glad you were listening to every word Andrew said...which was why I told him my Saturday feedback on you

And....don't you know? The Viper drivers (God love 'em, and I know a bunch of them) don't believe they need any instruction or coaching unless it's from a "Viper guy".

I kid you not.

Here's a preview of what you have to deal with.

Watch the first 2:30 and be in shock, look ahead to the red corvette at about 2:15 and watch until about 3:30. Please watch the White Viper go into Turn 1 at any time.

Then fast forward to 7:20 and watch the silver cayman. I had 1/4 power because my intercooler hose came loose but look at how easy it is to catch the Viper, who refuses to give a point and let me run away from him.

Viper was talked to, by Tommy Archer no less, hopefully she was better on Sunday. Apparently she claims she was giving all sorts of point bys but no one took them. I suspect she was sticking a finger though the window net & it was simply not visible.

Dang dez, you could've gone faster on I-85 for some of that. You could tell your car didn't have any power
