        You don't have to run the same car to run in the Ironman. I'll be splitting my rides up.

            Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
            Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

              What an awesome event! I'm super tired but I had so much fun this weekend. The autox was HOT and the course was very tight and technical but I pulled out a fast 6th run to give me the lead in the chase to the coolest trophy ever. Then we went to the drag strip that night. It was a small 1/8th mile track out in the middle of nowhere but they had some killer cars there. Lots of trailers and lots of HP. Most of the cars were older big block stuff that I know nothing about but it did make me feel very silly with my lil import. LOL The timing system was down but that didn't stop the 4 of us that went out. We did a round robin and all raced each other heads up with a guy at the start do a pinks style arm drop. No time slips though. It was too much fun. I have not been to a drag race in so long I forgot how fun it was. So I ended up the fastest there too. But then came the rallyx on Sunday. I was just not strong enough to run my Evo on the suspension I've wanted forever and risk breaking something so I took the big points hit and ran the Pearl. That race was held at a small over track that had a kart dirt track. Wow that was perfect! We went around the dirt track then through it and out. Going around the track sideways in the wagon was fabulous! In the end I was slow in the wagon so I got 3rd overall in the Ironman challenge. I'm definitely motivated for next year. If you are thinking about doing this event next year I say go for it! Doing 3 race events in one weekend was AWESOME!!!! Thanks Charles for putting this together and hosting us, and for C for bringing up the Peal Saturday night so I didn’t have to drive there and back. I will do my best to take that trophy away from Leon Drake (driving his wabbit in all 3 events for the win) next year.

                Sounds like fun! I was at our drift event this weekend...why does it seem like there's been so much motorsport activity lately? Can't complain

                  Way to go Sara, 3rd place among all those crazies. By the way my daughter thought you were cool the way you handle that Evo and all the work you and C do with the novices.

                    Thanks Wally. I'm glad your daughter had fun! C and I really enjoy working with the novice, they are so much fun. And we really appreciate everyone helping us by letting them ride along, with then numbers we are getting lately we can't do it alone.
