Good race BJ and Mike. Hate that it ended the way it did. Had all of us here at Z1 up and down enjoying the race.

Looks like we were pretty competitive at Laguna after all.... Unless running in the top 5.... Top 3.... Leading..... Marching through the field back into the top 5.... Falling to last and finishing 6 .... Isn't competitive.
Fastest lap of the weekend was in quali 1:35.5
We chased some setup stuff and got a little turned around. And from what we learned... If we would have had 1 more session.... I really strongly believe we have a target area for the platform that works very well.
34's for quali aren't out of the question.

Just saying
So that is pretty much a wraaaap for the 2012 year.
Looks like we will be bringing the 370Z RC to the Z1 Barber event
Plans are already underway for 2013 so stay tuned and we shall see what happens.
Thanks again for all the support from the Z community. This year has been quite the adventure..... And the next will be even better.
Cheers
Dwnshift

With a few more HP, a second car and some more driving talent like Bryan you guys might see a podium finish next season!
