Like them? What settings?

came down to the last event, but I managed to pull it out.

These tires are like magic in the rain! I was only 8 tenths of my fastest dry time of the day in the pouring rain, If I upgrade to Hoosiers I am keeping a set of the Ecstas for the rain. Here's a little chart for a comparison, me against my closest rival, he has hoosiers... His best dry run =...

I sure learned a lot, the competition at an event like this is nothing like what we have at a regional event, I drove very bad on the first day, probably a combination of nerves and inexperience, but with the help of Dale and Stephen I drove much better Sunday, I was able to stay within 1/2 a...

Ugh, this was my fastest run, and it was ugly. It was going pretty good right up until the end, but before that I overcooked the first corner, then the hard left after the slalom. So I lost a good 1/2 second there at least. Then I went in too hot at the end and "thu-thump FVCK!!!" It was a...

Went to the movies tonight (saw Italian Job, excellent btw) and as we were walking to my car (way out in the middle of nowhere) a young couple in a Passat slowed almost to a stop to check out my car. How many other cars for less than $20,000 can do that?

Kudos to Chris for designing a tight twisty course that favors cars with quick steering and flat cornering, it was a little too tight in spots for my taste as you can tell I had to be creative with my oh so critical hand positions. This is not my best run, if you notice at the end of the long...

one flew off my car, probably on the one long straight. I guess that means I'm doing better :}

Overall I didn't do as well as I had hoped, I think I got beat, so I may have finished 2nd of only 4, but there was a timing issue and I had to leave right after my last run (wedding, not mine) I left a good 2 seconds out there today but luckily I get another shot in 3 weeks when we go back to...

I can't wait, I will be posting pics and videos

1st (of 6) in class, 19th (of 88) in overall PAX. A huge improvement thanks to the input from Dale Kunze our regional director, I am using the brakes better, and applying the all important slow in-fast out rule much much better. I still need to work on my braking, it's better but not good...

The head of my SCCA region rode with me Sunday( edit: now with vid)... Before he did he said to me "you look good out there, but your times suck, they are too slow" He's that type of guy, up front. So he offered to ride with me, he said I'm not using my brakes enough, which is causing me to...

Yay!!!

What does your P5 do on sundays? Here's what mine does, slap on my extra set of wheels with race rubber, and go!

Finished 2nd out of 7 today...(now with movie) And I have gotten used to the tires, I was at the limit for most of the 2nd and 3rd run but couldn't put together a complete clean run. I hit a cone on the 3rd so the 2nd was my fastest, and on the 2nd I left a few second out there in 2 key spots...

I modified DistantTea's excellent logo and added color, then printed them onto magnetic printable sheets like I did my other stickers (5 pack for $10 at office depot) :cool:

go easy on me, I'm still trying to figure out the race tires, I promise much better videos in the future. On this run (3rd and last of the day) I finally got some parts right and was pretty exited at the end, not nearly good enough though...well it was good enough to win my class. Right click...

First off, Dynotrick (Justin) did excellent for his first time out, very smooth. He finished 10th out of 35 in the novice class (a class with some VERY fast DSM's from the local club) I won HS easily, there were only a couple Golfs and a Corolla in with me, and there was a guy in SM with a...

GO!!!! V700's are mounted and balanced, that was tough, took two of us at work to wrestle those tires on, I'm sure if I worked at a Porsche dealer we would have the proper machine :D All my tools are packed and ready to go, all my magnets are off the fridge and with my tools. Video and...
