Here are some more shots from the weekend. Congrats to Fred Yip for TTOD and Mark Rondeau for making the Top Ten in his 944S.
The heat kept my picture count down.

Thanks to Jack and Robert for another well run (but hot) weekend.

Yes, as always, a big thanks to Jack and Robert. Thanks to Greg for braving the sun and taking those pics. Thanks to Jim Hicks for doing the Equipment thing for me at this event. Thanks to everyone for keeping it on the track so Jim and I didn't have to go out and tow anyone back.
And, thanks to Mark Rondeau and Russell Shon for the "momentum driving" inspiration after losing the vacuum boost on my brakes! :rockon:

By the way, Russell was back in San Diego watching on the Web as practice and TT times were posted. He called to get updates on everyone and,
of course, give me some pointers. Next piece of equipment might have to be wireless WebCams running live video back to the new Zone8.PCASDR.net site for those left home with broken cars. 8)

Great pictures. Thanks Sumitomo (Satomi?) and Greg. Loved the people pictures as much as cars'. Two of my favorites - Steve fitting perfectly in the luggage compartment of the 911, A jet landed on top of Jad's car :)

Don, that was some inspiration you got. You shaved 4+secs in the timed runs. Very impressive  :bowdown:

Adding another thanks to Jack and Robert for another well-run TT. The web access was great especially on hots days like this.

Wow was that alot of fun & track time! 240 ish race type mins!!!! So Hot am still drinking water.
There should be a formula for ave track temp per lap and I think that would be a record.

Well Done:
Drivers for keeping it safe and clean.
Same unknown flag crew from Big willow..
Jack and Robert/Masters of TT, and love the online instant results page!!
Photo Crew SR Master Greg and rookie Sumitomo (did I spell this right?) (AKA Jae's woman)

Also special thanks to you Senior pro Drivers, that give ride alongs/instruction to us newer pro wantabies. (Mark)

See you on cooler days my friends.

Thanks to Jack and Robert for another great event. A bit warmer than I would have liked, but Ethan's AC worked quite nicely (Thanks!) The company was great, the driving very spirited and the weekend was incident free. I love the instant online results!  :bowdown:

Looking forward to Big Willow in September. Hope to see you all there and hopefully, it will be cooler.

People keep talking about these instant online results! I was enjoying spending time with my new baby last weekend but don't think I didn't think about being out there baking in the heat with everyone!!! Anyway, I want to see how everyone did...where are those results???

Well, the Time Trial results page has not been updated yet :(
But the real-time link for this event is here;

I kinda thought it was going to be lame, but with the schedule and instant results handy, I found it really great!
