Thought an update might be of interest. Other than the SRF/ SM fracas noted above, it was a super weekend for racing, great weather and the usual good company.
Drew and I shared the Protege in ITB for both ECR enduro's, winning our class on track both days but unfortunately coming up a few pounds short in impound in the second ECR on Sunday. We got the finish but no points with the related penalty (not fussing, it was my job to make weight and I just missed it). We had a good but small field in ITB, enough to make things interesting.
I was able to get a good start in the Sunday SARRC race and came home in first despite a late race on-track incident with an ITA CRX
clipping me as he spun (guys- lock'em down when you spin!!) Actually had a piece of his front valance stuck between the RR tire and rim, but the tire miraculously held enough air pressure to get me home.
Gary and Greg ran FV (not sure where they finished), and Scott Malbon survived the SM start for a solid race. He also helped us with refueling in the Sat ECR, which was a big help as we had my car plus racing buddy Emmitt Staley's SSC Cobalt to pit. Lynn, Eric, Tod, and Bill Bradley worked the races, Mo and Sam were there, nice to have friendly faces (even Mo's...)Hope I didn't miss anyone.
Altogether we ran three races plus the Friday practice day and the related qualifying. We're beat and broke, but a good way to end the season. (No juice left for the zoom-zoom this weekend...)
