Cline/Eric hit 104 on the decibel scale so they had to fix it before their next run. Ended up finding a pipe that pointed away from the sound reader and Eric's next run was amazing.
On Saturday there was not much different in the temperature between heats 1-3.
For my first Tour event, I'm happy with the results. I had a great time and definitely learned a lot. After coning my first 2 runs on Saturday, and my first run of a 59.0 on Sunday, I drove more conservative than usual. Got to get used to this 3 run format

I see him / that car run locally here. Watching him has actually discouraged me from making the leap from local events. He's that good.

If all goes well I will be looking for Eric to be right at the top of STX for the rest of the season.

Ha ha. My RX-8 looks like it's been daily driven for 2 years... :p Luckily, I don't daily drive it anymore, so when I have the time, I'll have a body shop take the door dings out.
I should be able to do 2-3 Triad events this season. Looking forward to the competition from Cline and Sienkiewicz.

Excuse A: Probably not the best time to change from 2 year old Kumho's to brand new Hoosier's.
Excuse B: Inserted Cranium in Anus
Excuse C: After I told him I was clipping cones with the right rear tire Carter suggested this "You're apparently not driving fast enough"
Excuse D: The car is now faster than the driver.
Excuse E: All of the above!
Seriously, it was good to see everyone again and get restarted in the sport. I appreciate all of the suggestion's and promise to do better next time!

We didn't get a lot of pictures overall and most are from two run groups each day but Karen did get quite a few of us rotorheads. Enjoy.
