The best thing to do when you are intimidated by the slow car is bring a car with 200+ more hp.

The weekend started pretty dam rough rolling into Sonoma at 1am Sat morning.

Saturday afternoon I finally got on track and both sessions were black flagged so I got a whopping 6 laps in all Sat day.

Sunday started like this.

Thanks to Ron Sutton for specing the Parts and Ron and Randy for dialing in my setup trackside.

Wait --- pictures are deceiving! And can be photo chopped.... and people can spin in turn 7 and with a full spin -- and a NASCAR winners circle 1st gear full on smoke show.... that was all the further I was behind.

Or was that the time I destroyed both front tars on corner entry. Actually - I never entered the corner... I approached the corner at mach IV.... picked two gears and got hard in 'em - and there was nuttin but smokey tars being turned into landfill liners.

Seems when I complained about rear end early lockup / wheel hop -- due to changing out the Wilwood recalled 7/8ths master for a new 1" master - which required a more aggressive brake pad switch as well.... the bias got biased a little too much and I went from wheel hopping OH CRAP to NEAR ZERO REAR BRAKES when I needed 18 wheel braking.... oh yeah that went south real fast. A simple set of new tars in the front and a re-biasing of the biased bias.... and it was all mo betta. I've seen death... it don't scare me now!

Haha! What a great weekend! It went from Greg helping and giving pointers on Saturday to "F that orange pos, he aint gettin around me!" come Sunday. A lot of fun between two friends.

Thanks for putting me in the passenger seat on Sunday, that car...when it has fuel, gets around the track pretty dang good!

It's too bad Dave never got on track.....
