that is crazy awesome! Congrats on the run and good luck at Laguna Seca. That Corkscrew is actually the hardest part to maneuver especially when gunning the straightway that preceeds it along with all the other cars. Precision braking is the key.

THANKS EVERYONE!!!

The Finals are going to be over Labor Day weekend.

Mazda is paying for the entire trip: Air, Food, Transportation, and Hotel.

I'm actually playing Sports Car GT and practicing on that! Unless someone has a better version they want to give me for PC use?

I'm still in shock that I've actually won! I'm probably going to be in shock for a long time to come! lol

Well, I have come up with a plan:

If everything goes accordingly, and I don't get hammered by Jet Lag, If I get my BMW ready to go, I might have someone drive it up there for me on Sunday, or since I will be back late afternoon or early evening on Sunday, I will show up on Monday to Lime Rock with it that way I can at least make an appearance! I've been going to the Vintage Fall Festival since I was like 5 and I haven't missed a year yet, so since I have an opportunity to make it there, I'm certainly going to try.

GJ,

Awesome, congrats. Did you drive with your left foot like you told me? Neat trick. I'll see you at our local meets, you can teach me.

Enjoy

PS- in one of the photos, my face is completely burnt to a crisp from the sun! LOL
