This is starting to look like a really cool mashup of vintage Porsche sports cars.

The vibe this weekend felt different somehow. A bit more laid back.
Adam was testing and tuning his latest spec Boxster, pretty awesome car.
Bruce Wing was there and reminded me that smoother is faster and it was fun splitting digits with Bryan Frasier, he beat me by 3 100ths.
Murray got TTOD and BRI, W00t!
It was really cool to get a sticker for my helmet. Thanks Eric, Rob and Chris.
Thanks WT for the ride along and coaching.
Great circuit, it was a lot of fun to drive.

Thank you Greg for the great photos !!!
I learned to like the track, but was fighting for grip.
Having done timing for many years I know how it works, but this time I am confused? (See below)
The times that were texted to me I believe are correct, keeping the best 3 out of 4 laps.
In this case it won't make much of a difference, but It appears the wrong lap was eliminated. 1:17.60 should have been the fastest lap.
I don't know what the glitch was.

Hey Martin,
I don’t recall if this happened to you, but we had several instances where we had to call in cones after the run was complete (and presumably the time was recorded and broadcast automatically).
The corner stations were covering a lot of territory, and I know in corner 9 we had a couple times where we saw a cone moved, still upstanding, but couldn’t get to it (distance and safety) until well after the cars had gone through to see that it was definitively outside the cone marking.
Guess that’s why those times are marked “Unofficial”
