Not so, based on paid entries.

Now up to 19 SP944 cars. A split start is a go with 2 pace cars.

Question on the parking map... Aside from those spots listed with a name, assuming it's first-come first-serve?

I love the smell of Boxster in the morning





This was the first one through the smoke in morning practice after a fellow Boxster blew something. Amazingly, the car that let go and another one that jumped the tire wall both ran later in the day. Tough little cars!

I was out there on Friday and Sat just to watch. Finally had a little time off. I had never been to a full Club Race before.

Saw a Boxster make a well-deserved hand gesture to a 944 on Sat on-track.

Very fun. Was hot though!

Yes, Boxsters can fly about 15' in the air and live to race another day. Unfortunately photos can not be shared until wives are properly preparred.

Wasn't me. At least the only one I remember was directed at another Boxster.

Was a great race weekend. A big thanks to all the volunteers for making this happen. And to Bela/EPS for preparing my car so well.

Lots of fun running with different folks during the sprints and managed to run some good times for my car. I tried like heck to keep up with Ryan in his H class 997 during both sprints, but just couldn't get there. Had to settle for two P2s. Was also great running with Bob Mulligan...nice to see another 964 cup out there!

The enduro was brutal for me. The heat combined with manual steering had me sweating like Chris Farley sunbathing in Mumbai.

Thanks to the organizers. I had never been to Summit and really enjoyed it. Terrific event. Got unlucky in the Enduro from P1 in class when a sticker R7 came apart going into T1 after only 17 laps. Nursed it back to the pits and got it changed and tried to make up some time but too far back to make any difference. Regardless, great weekend racing the other G guys and everyone else and look forward to going back next year.

PS, looked like someone was taking pics in the Enduro. Any idea if a link will be sent around? I might like a few.
