Default Goodguys Columbus - Friday Update!

Hi Everyone in Lateral-G land! I thought I would post the times from today's Street Challenge Autocross. As you know - all contestants for the SMOY award were required to make 3 laps around the Autocross. We had 28 contestants make Autocross runs! We were really happy with the turnout. Sorry I don't hgave pictures to post but it was totally awesome. A lot of fun and some guys were major showmen. I think next year will be even better. Here are today's times. I will post the top 5 SMOY finalists tomorrow afternoon, then try to post the big winner tomorrow eve.
