That, coming from Joe, is actually a compliment...
Fourth photo down, the one where we're in the trailer (reviewing data), I'm the one in the middle with the blue jacket. DiMinno's the fugly one in the photo below that...then, two below the one with the "your sh*t's weak" hat (that's me, too) I'm the one in the green "NY" (Watkins Glen) pullover...
Write ups on the weekend coming; I'm still catching up with life...
It was great meeting all you guys. I really appreciate all the help that you guys gave me over the weekend. I look forward to racing with y'all again soon. My race was over early but the party was great. The paddock at RA will never be the same.(or the buildings with spud dents)
Great meeting you Greg and Joe (and Bowlcut, and Cembor)
...
Too bad you left before I got there!

It WAS interesting hanging around these ITA cars past weekend. Guys are out to have good fun, serious work, all GOOD drivers, and Greg is just plain fast.
Next time, I invite you to hang around after your heats to get a closer look at the formula cars and the nat champ S2 I get to hang around at Kevin Kloepfer's Comprent Motor Sports out of Athens. Depending on the race, Kevin will have FA, FE, CSR and/or S2's in the tents. There's also an absolutely gorgeous GT2 Porsche that he stables every now and then. Last sunday one of the FE cars running on a SERIOUSLY tight budget (300 hours on a 150 hour engine, I think it was) came up from 17th at the grid to 11th INCLUDING a spin on 10a/b. The kid is going to be good.
Anyway, thanx guys. See ya next Atlanta, Roebling, Moroso or Sebring.

I was talking with Calum tonight on the drive home. And both him and I believe you are pretty darn good at this racing thing. Watching the video...you got some skills...your time in a Miata has really taught you how to pick lines. Now with a little bit of futzing with the car and I think you could really be a force in the southern ITA relms. Just there at 3mins you are really pulling on that Integra of Rucks. Atleast i think thats Ruck's teg.... With a little more car under you who knows. you have the driving down, now to tweak on the car
That car is running really fat, you can hear it. Like I said, I think we can lean you out in places and really get you a nice fat hp/tq curve. Sometime around late january febuary I say we spend some time on the dyno with a real time .
wow that curb hurts out of 10b, not exactly small on the far side is it.
Thanks for the props. The car needs a lot of sorting. I haven't had much time in it either and the front wheel drive learning curve is a little steep for me right now as well. I sent the shocks off for revalving and have my header guy lined up for Dec. to make a few and figure out which one will be the best. I will get back with Calum soon on the ecu. I appreciate the offer on helping tune it. I'll take you up on that. That gater was dug out deep on the outside. I wish I had not run out of talent so soon in the race. Oh well, there's always next time.

You are close enough to Calhoun, that we can take care of you.
