Unfortunately, I believe my ride still has a lot of pig snot left in it so I've got a ways to go. That's a gorgeous ride you brought along with you. Unbelievable how fast that thing is around the autocross.
The sucky part of the event was that since the cars were split into three groups we just saw the same 20ish cars all day. I would have like to see you're peel around the track some (or even more hear it)

Promise to have an actual action shot of your car this year

I wish the event would end, in terms of timing, a bit earlier so everyone can relax, give rides or let each other try our cars..

BTW Greg.. it was great seeing you and thanks for working hard all day so the rest of us could play. The volunteers put in what, 16 hours and were paid with a t-shirt (although a very nice one).. You guys, and the paying sponsors made this whole gig possible.

Thanks Steve, I appreciate that. Yep, the grouping thing is definitely the sucky part of the event. I agree with you 100 percent. I missed out on seeing so many cars, but I did get to see Bad Penny and some of the vendor cars absolutely smoking the road course which was just rediculous. The video you posted gives me the shakes just watching it. Congrats to you and Penny on another fine performance.

I agree 100% like Bill said we didn't drive 1500miles for a 5$ trophy. on the other hand after all the fun and back slapping. the winning part is also important. if it wasn't no one would beat the S%&t out of their pride and joy.

Horn Blowing aside
best event we have been to

Just know that me mentioning Ryan's time was in no way a sllight against your Nova's performance.. it kicked major azz..

To be honest I only knew you ran a 1:03something.. I had Ryans exact time because I was shooting pics at the timing station. I still don't have times.

Anyways, I have some great shots of your car I can get you.. So lets just start over by me saying congrats on winning the "comp" road course catagory..
