We have no doubt you'll figure it out Eric, get to it...and I'll find that elusive second I have left in the car, think it fell out of the driver's seat on the 4th lap or so. 
Let's spend the remainder of this thread making sure of a few things:
1 - that we convince Alex to carry his *** up to Summit and do it again, NASA-style.
2 - we ensure we get another shot at out-gunning Timothy in his new "pimp" rhyyyyyde...cuz you know we all love that thang.
3 - that Eric finds his "demons" so that he may perform an exorcism and race another day

4- Derek again silences the bar with his loud natural exhaust!

Aex:
Glad you took the plunge into racing. It's a whole new ball game now. Look foward to seeing the video from Sunday's race. Now that my car is running, need to send NASA my check so I can go racing. Will miss the party in GTS3 since I will be in GTS2.

Congrats on making it thru the comp school on Friday in conditions that just plain sucked. You got it done!!!
Also, big ups to Don Bryant for showing the good judgement for being in the pouring rain with RA1's with about 1200 heat cycles on them and still perservering to pass the comp school.
You guys rock

The same wet race from a different incar:
http://vimeo.com/3967468
It was an interesting exercise in survival with Mustangs sliding sideways and spinning off track everywhere around us.
GTS3 has become a great class with exceptional turnout and strong competition. I had a blast with you guys all weekend. I'm looking forward to NASA Mid Atlantic's April event at Summit.
John Witaker's Integra took a hit in that race and later that night we did some drunken track side body work...

Congrat's on passing comp school Alex, I was in the school with you in the 968 #444.
That last session in the rain was a riot especially with no blower and my windshield totally fogged up.
I have a video of it, you can only see well out of the rear camera, the front gets worse as the session goes on.
Hope to see you again at other events, good luck! Gary

I ran behind you on Sunday. That is one fast Boxster. Please tell me you have a 3.4 or more in it. My 2001 3.4 Carrera could not keep up...but I am assuming you are a better driver...for now!

Yup, Stevie has one of those "cheater" Boxsters...fast as hell, believe it is a 3.4.
Alex, are you signing up for Summit Point or are you going to be like those guys that only run VIR?
That will be great with you getting your PCA license, I think we will run against each other in H??
If Susan asks that you choose a "mentor" - pick me, I'm great!

NO I like other tracks. In fact I have been to Summit three time, Watkins Glen twice, Roebling twice, and Road Atlanta once. Of course they were all DE events. I like my first NASA and PCA to be VIR since that is the track I know best. As for my mentor, you would be a good choice. I will keep you posted.
