I have passed on the code brown line and been passed by people on the code brown line. Hell I remember a Spec Miata race in SCCA where one car was inside the curbing and another was nearly straddled on the curbing. As I recall, you have to go over the curbing to get onto and/or off of the code brown line, which clearly upsets the balance of the car, thus increasing the chance of an incident. However, bottom line, If it ain't illegal, it's legal. I would pass muller on that line all day if I had the chance

Hats off to young Counterman who made some waves in SPB this past weekend.

Only if you could get close enough to make it work.

If I saw a competitor go in there, I think I would rimshot the turtles to make re-entering the track harder for them.

I got pushed inside and ended up straddling that curb on a start once. It wore a hole in my oil filter which misted my right rear for the rest of the race. Made the left turns exciting.

Nice meeting you. Good job, your car looks great. Sorry my engine lubed my car and the track so I went home and missed all the races

Nice meeting you Steve. Thx. You dominated the GTC3 class, need to get some tips from you, if you're willing to share.

I can't ever remember SPB going faster than E class at a major race. Especially when one of the fastest E guys in the country is there.

Isn't there a rule proposal to lower the minimum weight of E class Boxsters? So much for that.

SPB new record at Tbolt Is faster than the E and F track record!
Some real talent as SPB front runners!
I only hope that next year I can keep them at least in my distant sight.....

Not F record, just E

Where any other records set this weekend? I found the track to be slow.

Nope, I only did that move in one of the Sprint races.

I was behind you at the enduro start and then you braked too much for t1 and I cut inside you and passed you before t2.

I may have had something go wrong from slamming a curb with the underside of the car - after that it wouldn't turn right without pushing off the track at track out (went off 3x). So I just slowed down to finish the race (on track). When you came up to me the fight was gone in me and I just waved you by so you would know I wasn't going to contest the corner.

Instead of bolting on stickers for the early morning cool weather "track record session" (aka warm ups) on Saturday, I chose to put on old used up tires to test/clean the inside line at t1
