Dang the Honda motor gave up? Sorry to hear that 85 it was running well all weekend. I hope they don't charge for the oil dry.

A Boss mustang lost its motor on the front straight sun morning. He was in garage 19 under warranty hope they cover.

I was sub 24's but not in a P Car.

Yep that was me in the smoke cloud. Was last event for that motor 84k miles and about 20 races and 30 track days, anyway as I am building a new for the left coast trip.

Glad to meet another AD08 fan and that was frogging flying on street tires

PS a complete new K20 is right around $5k

Nice meeting you as well Paver, good luck with that new exhaust, I know you will enjoy it. Let me know how it turns out..

Hopefully some day soon a few of us Rennlisters from TX and La. Can come on up to Barber and you can show us some lines.

I think it was $1,375 or $1,350 for 3 days. COTA is $$$$ (if/when they let you drive there, that is).

I hear several BSers

were in attendance - was good to see.

Yep. That was my client...Chris Cervelli, who is a real shoe.

Was doing low 25's with me in the right seat... .1 street car, stock shocks, license plate, pump gas, NT01 tires.

Oh no! Sorry to see that, Peter, but thanks so much for clearing the track of mosquitoes.

IMO yes. Track is pretty good. It actually gets a tiny bit greasy when in the sun all day...

Like I said - bigger guns....hohos

Though they didn't last as long as I expected, put them on Sat AM and by Sunday it was all I could do to keep a low 26 in traffic and I corded in the last session (ever so lightly on left rear). Running 34-37psi.
