For what it's worth, I have a great pic that my wife took of three of us standing around listening to Don drop knowledge on us. We appreciate his instruction and apply little tidbits of information at every opportunity. My braking has become smoother (my biggest struggle regarding weight transfer is smooth brake release), Andy had a revelation regarding his tire pressures, and I'm not sure what Mike is doing but he sure is thinking hard in the pic!

And yea, we spent a lot of money on the cars, but half of the enjoyment in owning these cars is playing with them, whether it is driving or modding. At least we don't have non-functional mods.
@
regandr Why don't you compete in TTD and win some tires or brakes or whatever contingency program you want to participate in? What were your times on the West track last month?
@
CSG Mike What's the typical time separation between the NA Stock class and FI Super Mod cars in 86 Cup? 8 seconds is about the average from what I can surmise. So, we're not exactly throttle hammering a___holes (like GTR & 911 Turbo drivers) like it has been insinuated.
