I think I ran 1:50 last year so I was 2 seconds slower. Others were commenting on the track being slower. I'm sure the heat didn't help much either. Chuck, that would make your fast lap a 1:48. Right there with the other slow street cars.
just commenting or miscommenting that one would expect the times for street cars to be a bit slower than a racecar such as Chucks BWM. Did not mean to give the impression that the TT cars were "slow" just that given that most of us are not as experienced as others and our cars for the most part can be driven on a daily basis ....I thought the times were appropriate given that criteria.
Yes the STI and its driver put a good whooping on us in SU but he did at TGPR too by about the same margin.
There should be a couple of evos coming for him next year

You mad bro? It's obvious you guys don't even lift. Rod is just mad because i've beaten him so bad at every event this year. I don't even know Mr. Fusion. I was simply posting because i'm excited to start track days next year and you guys gotta bust my balls and my car. Whatever helps you guys sleep at night.
Heath its nothing personal. Just having some fun on a slow day at the shop. BTW you doing my PDX in a couple of weeks?
I figured lol I wasn't taking anything to heart. My posts are generally sarcastic. I was going to but I have one tire that is patched. Doesn't worry me at autox since it's low speeds, but I'm not sure about on track at speed.

Do the PDX Heath. TGPR isn't that fast of a track so the loads are probably less than an AutoX run.

I'm working, son. Someone has to wave a couple flags!
Same! lol
I really need to save tires for autox too. We're within one point in SM so I need all the help I can get lol. It's been down to .015" and .036" the last 2 events. Every tiny bit of grip is needed. I assure you I will start PDX next year and Time Trials. Getting Kirk to make me a 4 point this off season. Gotta get a surge tank, X's don't like left hand turns with less than half a tank . Lots more track needed modifications before I feel comfortable tracking it. Need to get Matt to build me a track map. Stuff needed before my heart is comfortable beating on it on the track. Soon enough.
To be honest though If I had tires I would do it. I don't want to buy another set just for one PDX.
