That way an owner would have a base time the car is capable of and can shoot for that. Most of this --- and I saw it all day long --- is seat time. As the guys learned the course the times started to fall -- same car -- same driver... and not much "tuning"... except the driver was getting tuned up.

Look what Nathan did with Bad Penny.... That now tells Steve, or anyone else in the seat, what the car can do.

That's a great suggestion Greg. I'd add, we now have RTTC type events/road course classes/SCCA AutoX at our disposal, what's missing is an opportunity to tune our chasis with the experts. You know, a day w the Pozzis or Doug @ GW who really know these car's have the tools on-site and potentially replacement parts to try out and compare. That is one exercise I'd show up for...(assuming my bucket was running)

Oh yeah, Todd you were smoikin' out there! Good to see you again Bro...
