Default Putnam & RaceMonitor

Is anyone picking up PP on Race Monitor?

It doesn't seem to wanna load on my Droid or iPad?

I know the letter classes are qualifying right now.

Mark Hupfer was quickest this morning, followed by Mark White and Astroman.

MRW was also up there.

Thanks Chris... that's what I'm getting too. Some events feed qualifying. Other venues are working so I guess it's the feed.

BTW I hear our friend Astroman is flying. Just a couple ticks behind Mark Hupfer!

I had all sorts of cell connection/GPS issues at Putnam (several years ago on Iphone/AT&T 3G). I think that the track is in a bit of a dead spot, connection wise.

As an update on RMonitor from Mosport CR, Michael Wingfield mentioned in his column in the last CR News that there wouldn't be any R Monitor from Mosport. Track does not have a dedicated Internet connection and the PCA phone card isn't active in Canada.

Yeah he's killing it out there. Must be the sugar he put in Hupfer's gas tank.

He had a little mechanical in the first sprint but it's all taken care of. Good luck to my boys on Sunday!

I guess they don't have a phone card for Indiana either because the race never came up.
Details to come.

Ha! Unfortunately for me, being able to lay down a good lap on sticker tires in Qualifying does NOT mean you can hang with the big boys (Mark and Mark) in a race. Those guys are still in a different zip code. Besides, I think Hupfer was sandbagging.

It was a fun weekend. E class was huge! 23 in the Sprints and 19 in the Enduro!

Unfortunately, it appears nobody got to see anything outside the paddock.

Can someone post time sheets?

Where did you end up, Jack?

Yeah - Jack was really fast. He has really got that car (and drover) dialed-in. I think Jack finished 3rd behind Hupfer and White in the enduro - despite having an interesting trip across some Indiana grassland late in the race.

Jack was fast! I was right on his tail in the enduro when he went off in corner five to capture third place only to have my own excursion in corner one and another later incident to give third up to Jack again. Putnam was a blast maybe next year Jack, I or another sacrificial lamb can offer a little more of a challenge to Hupfer and White.

Nah, I think you were faster, Kevin. Despite my good qualifying lap, I couldn't hold you off in the races. I tried to keep you close in the enduro but I was sliding all over the place. And then yes, TWO agricultural excursions late in the race didn't help me either. I thought the sheet was wrong and that you were third... But I'll take it!!

E is for Elkhart -- Up to 23 cars in the class already... should be a good one.
