Please consider these unofficial until I've had more time to sort through them and make sure everything has been correctly calculated.

My exuse is that I wasn't running cheater V710 tires like some "others" in 'K' class. :wink:

All kidding aside, I had more fun at this event then any other TT I've attended. The track is a complete blast and gridding up by time allows you to dice around with others much more than our standard TT format. I had three sessions where I was neck and neck with another driver, each of us pushing the other. The long front straight is an exercise in preparing for the banking. Get your nerve up to blast through the banking (no lifting :twisted: ).

Awsome event, although there were too many delays due to broken and bent cars.

Had lots of fun this WE.
My 2 goals were:
1 Keep the car off the wall :(
2 Consistently Go Sub 2:00
Succesfuly reached both.

Also had lots of fun in a couple sessions running along Jim Duncan, especially being side by side a few times through T1 and 2.

I think I might do this again with POC in May.

Thanks for posting the results so quickly !

The event was a lot of fun as always, even if the parking assignment and grid schedule were the usual mess.

I reached one of my goals of getting in the low 1:52's, but the weekend didn't start without mechanical problems.

I ran on shaved Toyo RA-1's and unfortunately Jad didn't lose his V710's yet :grr:, so my other goal will have to wait a little longer :lol:

Hey, don't blame the tires, blame Tami. It was the birthday cookies that did it :D I think she got the recipe from Tom T :wink:

Just be happy the Cup Car screwed up my last lap when I caught it in 13. My hot lap showed a 1:50.4.

Great event, thanks to everyone that helped put it on.

PS Sorry Martin :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Yes, I was surprised to be gridded between two GT3Cup cars :shock:. I thought he would catch up, but he didn't. :burnout: :burnout:

Happy Birthday and nice driving Jad. :burnout:
