It's probably just an A stock street tire car, 06 S2000 bone stock including the tires. Looks like I will be in town April 2-6, hopefully there will be some kind of event during that week/weekend.

Not going to happen. However I have been known to run Pax if it means I can run at the time of day I want, early, and this event both classes were afternoon.

p.s. I do not belong to a CalClub club so I do not get points or take a trophy away from the little guys I pound on.

Rick Ruth says I am not fast enough for Pax anyway.

Done.

Here's the vid from my quickest run (which was still slow). I held 1st gear too long going up the hill and almost forgot to shift. You can also see how painful the slalom is taken the wrong way.l

4th set

I like this one.....I was trying to get down to the grid when all three of you guys were lined up...but it always seemed that one of you was on course.

I was originally gonna do something where you guys were talking about my driving, but decided that was too self-centered

BTW, it takes no skills, 5 min in MS Paint.

speed update the first post to reflect results from the first event. I suggest putting how many points they earned so that we can keep track of our new points system.

Example:
1/14/2007
1st-Ulllose (100.00 points)
2nd-Speeddemon32 (97.37 points)
3rd-Mp5 (96.72 points)

MP5-Question...are you using any rounding rule to 2 decimals?

Just link to the Google spreadsheet I made, it includes all the info. It is doing standard rounding (nearest hundredth) just for display purposes. The actual point totals have a much higher precision.
