First: Big thanks to Robert and Jack for organizing a great event. There was a huge turnout, and a couple of issues with cars breaking etc. on the track, and still the event ran smoothly with tons of track time. Great job, guys!
It was a great weekend. Big turn-out, awesome weather (except for the gale-force winds at 1:00AM Sunday), and as mentioned, tons of seat-time. Kudos to Jad for another TTOD and Top BRI. Are we all sure that's not a "Cheater-Car?" Great support from Team 911-SG. Fun music Saturday night (yes, I heard it all from my camper). And some really great driving from many people. Looking forward to seeing those videos.
To all the volunteers that made it a great weekend, THANKS!
Looking forward to the next one!

+1. Nice driving Dano! Fastest times ever for you at that track. Glad to see you're keeping your foot down more and more. 
Great driving by Jad as usual to take TTOD and BRI, although not by the comfortable margin he's used to.
Timed run video is up on a separate thread. More fun videos to follow.

I still had the normal comfortable margin compared to everyone except a certain cheater in car #1 
You were one counter-steer away from taking the BRI.
Nice time Dano!
Thanks as always to Jack and Robert.

Jad, Is this enough curb? I think I nailed the apex on this one.

I really wish I could get myself to hit curbs like that more consistantly. I am definitely leaving time by being further away.

Had a great time. Excellent event with a ton of track time (as usual!). First time running counterclockwise and I think I like it better than clockwise. Thanks!
