Why don't you give him yours and get to work on those real suspension bits for both of us.

Yeah, yeah, yeah....nag, nag, nag
(Spoke to Todd last week and we should have some progress soon - will probably involve spacing the strut up from the hub due to the total stroke of the inserts).

I signed up for YouTube.com it's free and you can load upto 100MB videos on it. If you want to put it there yourself it doesnt take too long if you have hi-speed access.

I was a little gun shy after rotating the car 180 degrees in second gear.

SCCA frowns on people doing burnouts. Can only emagine what they would have said had I done an AWD burnout prior to the run. They were upset enough with me taking out there mirror.

Results from day 2 (Oct 22)

http://www.phillyscca.com/solo2/resu...6/SO102206.TXT



I was running Novice class both days. 186 out of 207. Even managed to place above a few Factory 4 Cobras and a Lotus. I would have done better if I could have found the course in the first 2 runs. I tend to shave time each round. I only had 2 good runs. I wasted 2 rounds just trying to find the course. They only gave us enough time for on walk through and I had to work first. By the time I ran I couldnt remember the course. Add to that the sun being low, and I was clueless as to were I was screwing up until the 3rd run. The 4th was the first run that I was accually able to consitrate on going faster. I think I could have shaved at least another 2 to 3 seconds if I had gotten the course right to begin with.
