Not Ranked
At RA that year I do believe it was a 2:44 and you ran a couple of seconds back from that. It is testiment at how much better you are your car have gottin over the past few years. I don't remember what I turned at that event in your car w/Jeff in the passenger seat but it was quicker and a hell of a lot of fun. That #11 car was set up more for PIR and Willow because they are both right hand tracks and the car worked real well there. The 1:08's was in a race on the transponder and it was a ball running in a gaggle of race Porsche's.
Lap times are kind of like HP numbers, you can have some sceptitizim (sp?) until you see verifed numbers. At open track events, I no longer worry about lap times. I just want to have fun. If I am running a race, then lap times are everything and will do whatever I can to make them lower.
I don't know if it is because I'm mellowing in my old age or what, I just don't take the risks I used to at an open track.
