Had to take a short cut into the pits to let the tires cool back down. I ended up with 13 runs myself and honestly that was more than enough in that heat. Congrats on your times. You're really getting that Trans-Am to work for you. Seth said you upgraded shocks recently. Get some sticky tires and you just might be giving Dustin a run for it.

Glad you had fun! Even 13 runs is a lot of run to make on any day, then throw in 100+ temps and it's a beat down. I'm as dedicated as anyone about driving as much as possible but, after 8 laps in the morning with sweat running down my chin I had to stop and cool down in the 105 temps. The inside of my car gets very hot!

I'm pleased with how the TA is running and am having a great time learning about all this suspension stuff but, I think I'm a long way from giving Dustin a challenge. I plan to have a spectacular time trying to challenge him though!!!

August 22 the BMW club is running an event for $40 and we get 10 runs - 5 in the am and 5 in the pm, Tech starts at 8 and drivers meeting at 9:15. They usually have around 40 cars and only 10 runs so they usually end around 3-3:30. I plan on going, meet me there and lets see how we can improve our times with what we have! Don't tell Dustin, we need more practice than him!
