This was a really great event while dry with perfect conditions for record setting lap times.
Everything ran very smoothly in the TT and CR from management to drivers and cars even cooperating.
Great event all the way around.
Great thanks to Greg Phillips (awesome event shirts) and to Jack and Robert for another seamlessly run event.

+1. Great event. Had there been Timed Runs, many Class Records would have been crushed.

Great event.

Here is Steve's fastest session. Best lap was within a second of his TTOD time in the 914 back in the day, and this was on 225 front and 245 rear A6 Hoosiers. :rockon:

For those drivers that departed early, at the Drivers’ Meeting on Sunday it was decided unanimously to use the best practice lap time prior to Sunday lunch as their official Timed Runs time in order to avoid having to do Timed Runs in the rain (and allowing everyone to depart during daylight to get home). It was offered that if someone would volunteer to take attendance of those present at the Drivers’ Meeting, then only those who signed up in advance for Timed Runs AND who attended the meeting would receive an official time, however there were no volunteers. Thus, everyone who signed up in advance for Timed Runs has an official time for the event based upon the above. Results may be viewed by going to http://zone8.pcasdr.net, which also links to the results archive where track records may be viewed.

Reminder that the 2016 calendar is available at http://www.pcasdr.org/competition/dett-schedule and to be sure to mark December 13 at 9:00 am on your calendars if you wish to participate in the first event of the year, January 23-24 at Chuckwalla running counterclockwise. The last event at Chuckwalla sold out quickly.

Happy Holidays and see you at the track in 2016.

And a big CONGRATS to Chuck Sharp for winning the Sprint Race 2 AND the Enduro. That's one great, big time weekend for the Chuckster! When the rain falls and the HP advantages are neutralized, talent wins out.

Here's the flip side, my Sunday morning session. Sorry the camera mount was wrong, and the mirror is in the way. It's been changed. ;-)

For those of you who left early, here is what you missed!!!

:surr:
(Haven't edited the length (hour long), so after 5 minutes or so, you should probably skip to around the 40 minute mark)
