In addition to all the really killer cars it was cool seeing some of the drags on Fri. Watching a Tesla Type S run 13.1 was interesting. I ended up talking with him on Sunday for a bit. He said his boss will be bringing out his P85D model that puts out 690 hp and does 0-60 in 3.1 sec. to see what it will run. That is just crazy awesome.

I also talked with the guy in the brown car that you were chasing (Adam I think). He came up looking for you as you drove off in the Lotus. Really nice guy.

Looking forward to next time.

Was a great weekend!

Adam is a good guy and a pretty darn good driver! Funny - We'd bought the Pacquiao fight in May when we were all at Thunderhill...so had the TV all set up under the awning of the Toter.. and here comes Adam and his buddy... and they ask if they can join us... next thing you know we have like 16 people in a semi circle watching "the fight" (went to a fight, and a show broke out).... He's got a good sense of humor. I like chasing him and he enjoys being pushed a bit.

He'll then come over and ask about his line - because he can tell I'm faster thru a section - and wants to learn from what we've just done. I tell him where I'm hitting a mark or staying wide or turning in etc. Doesn't mean I'm doing it right - but it's just faster or whatever. Most guys have WAY too much ego to come and talk about this stuff. Heard one guy comment - "yeah I need more horsepower". Uh.... well.... maybe you should try driving that little black Miata cause he's way faster than you and is running a stock motor. LOL
