Day 3, Session 2: URL when YouTube finishes processing...
Boooo! We want the link already!
[edit] link is up. It does look pretty close, actually. It's called a brake check. Stop following me! (just kidding of course). My car (or my droving it) won't hold turn 3 and 6 and 11 like yours. And you just have way more cajones in 8 and 9. Yikes!

It's great [racing] [which of course should be read as non-competitive, educational, very safe,high speed, performance driving]

I'm willing to bet my tow hook loop went between his rear bumperettes
That sounds, bad. Really, really bad. Don't get your tow hook near my rear anything.

I was thinking (to Tom) "turn already!!!
When I saw you in my mirror at turn 1, I almost had a brown flag.

I was disappointed that you weren't there. Wally wasn't racing either which surprised me. This was the first time I've been in my car in 2 1/2 years, so some cobwebs were being cleared out. I plan on returning to club racing at Hallet or No Problem. Are you racing either of these events?

I'm glad to see you're back around. I need some competition.... You know you have my favorite car.

Yeah, I want to at least do Hallet. I like that track. Now I need to figure out how to get it past the wife as it usually falls around her birthday.

Between my work and my kid, it seems I hardly get any time for the track. Speaking of kids, what are you up to now a days, 14 ~ 15 kids?

Thanks for posting all the vids... I'm seriously slow in turn 5 on this one and just plain awful in turn 3 of the other one. Any word on when the track will be fixed?

I wish people would be a bit more aware in 7/8 and let people by after 8. Otherwise yellow was pretty good about letting people through. Blue, not so much.

No ****! (I mean, me too).

Looked like it could have been construed as a point-by...
