If I'm inferring correctly, it looks like chucky took T1 in RTR - nice job! (and on 215 Z1's?)

Also, looks like edj was a very close and competitive (16th on PAX!) P3 in CS - nice job there too!

btw edj, about how many runs are you getting on A6's?

i have about 50 runs on the first set of A6's. the tires are getting hard and do not
stick as well as the fresh set i ran last weekend. I expect another 10 (maybe more) runs. i would
expect better wear as i learn what tire pressures they like.

16th in PAX was surprising. we ran 1st heat so we had the coldest temps (58 Sat, 46 Sun).
BS (last heat) was 2 seconds faster on Sat, Sunday we ran the same times. go figure...

Congrats to you both!
Some pretty respectable talent in both classes, too ...

Thanks, I was able pull off the RTR win. Day 1, even though RTR ran in heat 3, I just had no grip. I actually spun off the tarmac into the grassy ditch. Day 2 the car really hooked up well. I guess there is no RT pax included in the final PAX sheet, but the car felt pretty good. Eric looked great in the CS FR-S, but Dan is always so fast in the Z. I can't believe we didn't have more BRZ/FR-S's out there though. I mean, no one in STX, that's crazy.

I ran yesterday on A6s for the first time, with temps about 42 degrees. Good job with not having a co-driver. We didn't have too many people so my runs weren't far apart and I still never got any heat in them.
