Auto Cross at Martin Raceway in Martin MI Video
Not one of my better performances. Obviously slow in quite a few areas. In a few spots it looked like I was trying to thread a needle with a rope.

I will be running with INR Sunday. I can't make the 31st at Grissom because I work, but I will be there Sunday the 1st.

That looked fun. How'd the brakes hold out?

The brakes were fine. Not fast enough or long enough to even come close to any fade. .9 mile long

This guy reminded me of Farm Truck. 3.8 GN Turbo. Underneath the hood it looked like a rat's nest with none of the wiring in looms. Just goes to show you can't judge a book by it's cover. Out of 91 cars it was the 12th fastest. The ultimate sleeper. I don't know what the grate on the rear is. It looks like something off of a motor home or furnace. I couldn't believe the times he was turning in that thing. He ran the 1/4 at Martin the night before turning a 10.83.

You end up running a lot of weird stuff in this area. I almost came to a stop going into that one section on the backside, which was embarrassing. I brain faded and kept thinking it went left rather than right. We ran in the 3rd group and by the time I ran I forgot where everything went. That's what happens when you reach 60. I'll be glad when these Goodyears burn up. There is no consistency. You may as well throw away your first runs when cold. We ran yesterday at the Tire Rack. My son co drove and we finished 1-2. He's been beating me pretty consistently so far this year. Got me by .398 yesterday. When he was 12 I started him out driving my 98 Z28, dodging cones in a parking lot. He's been co driving with me since he was 16, and is now 28
