Fantastic weekend. Can't believe the weather held off after it showing 85% chance of rain. Ran in stock H and we had 3 dry races!! Won both the Sprints, but got a DNF in the enduro. Had the overall lead after 58 minutes, but then ran out of gas This is only the second weekend racing the car and at Sebring we came in at 60 minutes and still had over 1/8th tank left. Gas gauge doesn't work, so was basing stop off of time. Was planning on pitting next lap, but instead ended up sitting at the bus stop watching the cars go by...arghh

Thanks VR for the pointers...drop almost 5 seconds from Thursday to a 2:08 by the end of the weekend.

You bet!

FYI, fuel consumption will be notably higher at the Glen that Sebring due to all the uphill stuff.

Oh yeah. 80 minutes into the enduro my low fuel light was taunting me "Hey! Don't look at the track, look at me! Your engine is going to quit at any moment!"

Very distracting.

And, a lot of talent too! Nice photo. I hope the cars looked this good at the end of the weekend!

PS - I'm preparing for a rematch with you at Putnam this August! I hope you'll be there. If so, bring your "A" game, it'll be a lot of fun.

The best driver I know will show all his data and tell everything he does with anyone - often times to the guy that is on outside pole (to his pole). He knows you probably can't do what he does. And if you do catch him, then he just needs to step up his game.

Any one have results? My laps doesn't seem to have this years race yet. Specifically looking for the orange enduro lap chart.

No SmartyCam.

The car does have a raceCam, but I didn't have a card in it. The quality blows.
