Speaking of which I took my car to Thunderhill Raceway with my new rubber and actually kicked some a$s. I had five races and took a second, third, and fifth place out of twenty. I used 21 gallons and drove 200 miles, maximum speed was 120 MPH and a couple of turns at 80 MPH. Another turn is like a giant skid pad which was a 70 MPH turn for me. My car had more grip but I was timid as it kept raining off and on.

While nobody totaled or had car to car contact, the wet track proved damaging to a few cars via spins etc. Those painted curbs are no good when wet. I was afraid to touch them, much of the time.

Mr Onzedge needs to put a bubble in the roof of his car so the helmet will fit. Like Dan Guerney's* GT40. I would benifit with one myself. Or get a seat that sits lower.

Today I drove home and averaged 21 MPG according to the computers we all have stock. It is the first time that it has been reset. Prior to this I had 13.9 MPG over the life of the car.


* I think that is right.
