The course was a ton of fun, and the event was really tightly run, resulting in at least 15 runs for each person. Tremendous day.

Sure WAS! I cannot recall a better course on the SE lot. Fast, flowing and fun. The double apex turns were really enjoyable.

Kudos to the designers and AutoX team for another great event!  :bowdown:

It was a fun Sunday after a not-so-fun Friday when my usual car got sick with a nasty misfire... (Just glad it happened on Friday rather than Sunday morning.)

It was fun to be involved in the tightest class competition of the day -- and I think I provided some evidence that the CC points system actually works well for stock cars, as I was able to battle Mark C. to what was basically a draw in CC06 while driving an SS02 Boxster S with no performance options whatsoever.

Yeap, not even tires ;)

I have an excuse to change that, though: my fronts are toast!

Really fun event. CC-09 separated by .07 seconds this time, between a nicely setup boxster and an old 911, so agree the CC points seem to be working, and the course, like last time, really didn't seem to favor any particular chassis more than another (top 10 (11 with tie) were 5 911 variants and 5 cayman variants)... so really fair and fun track!

Also, the after-party was a hoot this time too!

Here's my last run. Thanks to all that make these events happen. I was getting a bit of clutch slippage at the launch but she survived. I had a blast.
