Why, this is bordering on trash talk. And here I thought all Southerners were gentlemen.

BTW, What classes run with I? Haven't been able to find a race schedule on the site.

It is different at each track. It depends on the entry list. There is G,H,I,J,K sometimes E and GT4&5. F is a large class and is in a different run group most of the time, but I have run with them also.

Jim, thanks for the link, cool. I have raced with Peter a couple of times in his ITS car (same car or different?) - I would think he could easily get under that 28 at VIR. On the RRR time, should I assume that was a few years back or is that a recent LR?

84-944, NASA SE is hosting two events at RA this year and one at RRR, both will run the 944 Cup races as far as I understand.

Jon and I both have 1:23.9's at RRR. Jon was slightly faster, he had a 23.970 and I had a 23.980 or something like that at the last club race in Dec/03 as for VIR, that was Pete's time, he had a 28.761 and I had 28.661. This was in 2002. I have not been back there. This was both of our first times there. Pete finished 1st and me 3rd

Mike, if you are in F class, that is a tough class. Karl Potel is the man there. i think he may be bringing a new car.

Red/White number 4 that weekend. I was the one that left the two wheel imprints in the turn two wall in practice on Saturday Car almost lost the right hand side as well about 2 minutes later. Rough start to the year.

Have you been running the ECR/SARRC series? The car was all red #42 in 2002, Red/White #42 in 2003. What car are you driving - all black 325 E30?

IPC, I had to check some old results - it wasn't Peter, I don't know where I know that name from now ... somewhat confused. ... ok, less confused 20 minutes later July SARRC @ Road Altanta.

Karl's a great guy and wicked fast.
He was taken out by a spinning back marker at Sebring while leading F and chasing the E leader late in the sprint race. He, Bill Pawlan and a guy from here, Chris Inglot, pretty well had F covered.

Karl is building a new car that a friend up here is buying.

I'm buying a new suspension from him. Unfortunately, it won't be in before Atlanta.

Nice to see you show up for the smack talk IPC.

Taking brother in law to AMS for Buck Baker school, on Sat, see you at RA on Sunday.

IPC & 84-944,

I will also be at RA this weekend with the BMW crew trying to find another 2 seconds so I can at least have fun watching the action in front of me instead of being a rolling obstruction.

See you guys this weekend.

Hey brian I spoke to kerry we are having decals made "how do you" on the back of kerry's car and "like me now" on mine. don't worry we made big decals so you can see, its just that mine might have to be a bit bigger.

BTW Tim, I'm told you're turning 1:50.00's, you'll be able to see just fine.

Hey Jon, I got a better Idea. How bout we put "coming through" on the front in reverse letters, that way they can see it in the mirror when we lap them. Of course the "Coming" will be on mine and the "through" on yours.
