...co-driver a little too wild.
I was holding my camera and recording video while this occured and warned him not to lose it going around that long sweeping turning using up a lot of tire to corner... but he gassed it too much anyway.
He also lost control at the finish, and took out the reflector... and almost hit a brick building. Luckily, they had a spare, and he didn't the wall. I got more pictures I took on a friend's camera which I was watching this through its lens finder and snapping away.
competition:
There are two veterans (WITH THE SCCA PULLOVERS) in my class, one in a prepped Integra, the other, the ITA SE-R. I saw them show up and left my spare in and never kicked out my passenger (besides the first where my co-driver wasn't allowed to ride along).
Wet raining day. Only 50 driver turn out, so 6 runs each!! I was in first in my class after the first run as the others got DNFs. Ended up beating my co-driver by 2 and a half seconds... which is nice since last time he beat me. I rode with him and he was aggressive, but quick reflexes/correction... still, slow and smooth won.
66.357 (+1, my first cone ever)...62, 58.5.. 57.320..58.6..58.3
Co-driver's best was 59.8ish. Did decent in PAX considering the extra 200lbs I kept in the car.
Sold my chip, re-installing a 3.73. From here on, it's all about driver, suspension, and wheels/tire.
