Already booked my ticket out of SFO Monday.

Knew it was a long shot, but thought I'd throw it out there, lapping days is usually great DE, good group of heads up drivers that really get after it, makes for a fun fast day.

Damn straight! You were extremely luckily we even let you paddock with us. And, naturally, that's why Chasen had to turn your trailer away from all of us. It was like a graffiti strewn concrete wall that we merely used as a backdrop in scenic Bakersfield.

Let us know for when in the NW. We'll get you setup with Cantrel motorsports to take care of your rig and some fun in Seattle at The Ridge and Pacific Raceways...

As you know, Bob Read of Lapping Days is part of the Vegas crew... Unfortunately, I have a meeting in Silicon Valley on Monday morning so will miss the Lapping Days event at Miller. Not happy!

Looking forward to running with you guys the following weekend at the NASA event at MMP though!

That looks much better than I imagined possible form a Civic
You are very smooth Shufflesteer! but it rotates pretty good, no under steer or are you keeping it so it wont? I figured you had to kinda toss it into corners Rustang like but you are very smooth with it. Nice driving faster than you make it look.

Very nice to meet you. The car is hooked up, TSB on the shocks, what else? Your driving and line is better than mine, I needed that video about Saturday night I could have picked up more time on Sunday

The video follow/lead usctrojan says "private".

Damn looks like you all had a blast. I was planning on being at BW, but had some family stuff so I had to cancel my plans. Hope to meet the world famous TrakCar at the world famous Laguna Seca in June
