Tom & Di your hostility is always second to none....wait... hospitality??? There was no point in my visit that I felt anywhere but home, and we even got to discuss exoculation!!!

Yes, thanks very much Tom and Di for letting me stay there with youguys. Sorry I wasn't in much of a "party mood" on saturday, but I was worn out

... Hopefully I'll see youguys again sometime soon.

Managed to close Saturdays gap of 3.xxx seconds behing Chris to .4 seconds with a best clean time of 50.5xx. Chris, i congratulate you on your abilities as you were able to carry a lot of speed through those courses.
Played around with the G-tech both days.
Maximum Lateral G's on Sat= .99 on street tires
Maximum Lateral G's on Sun= 1.16 on r-comps
Just a cool little tid-bit about the car. Hope to see you all again real soon at the Jersey Beach Meet!!!

Tom, thanks for letting me drive the 6MT SVX down the road and back. It handles very similarly to an STi. Well I mean that it transfers power very similarly and was the feel I was hoping it would have. I would have loved to take it around the Autocross course a few times too

I think your car definitely has the potential to be really good at Autocross, if only you could get more seat time. Hell, that is hard for me to come by too now days. But it was fun having you slide towards me while I was working at corner 3 on Sunday

... Wish I had a camera for that!
~ Chris
