Howdy all,
One Lap number 8 is officially in the books! We placed second in class behind the very fast BMW 135 and ahead of the VW GTI of Reg and Bill. This was probably one of the best One Laps I have been a part of. Not because of the organization or scoring, as there were a few issues, but because of the great people participating in the event. We were able to spend time with old friends and left with many new friends.
The competition in our class was very tight between 2nd, 3rd and 4th. We…

We are almost done with Greg's 9th and my 8th One Lap! We are still talking to each other, although we do still have to make it through the day, the car is in one piece, we had no DNF's, and we are more than likely going to finish 2nd in class. All in all not a bad week. Our worst finish was 33rd and best 18th, although we don't have the results from the Autocross, which I am hoping might give us a better result.
Greg drove the two road course events and I did the autocross at BeaveRun. Greg di…

We finally made it to the hotel in S. Carolina. It was a long drive after a long day at the track at No Problem Raceway. Things went well in the morning and we finished 26th overall and 2nd in class. In the afternoon things weren't so good as I forgot to turn off the traction control and it really slowed me down! They decided to run the low ET Drag race that we missed in Texas and Greg ran a 14.199 at 101mph. This was enough to put us 2nd in class!!
Greg is driving tomorrow and we are hoping fo…

Yes, I had a nice Prime Rib for dinner, and was actually able to eat sitting on something that wasn't moving 80 mph! It was very nice and was thanks to the rain we had all day in Texas. The Drag races were canceled and we left Texas World Speedway early enough for us to actually get more than 3 hours of sleep in a bed! We figured it was worth sacrificing one hour of sleep for a nice meal.
Today was a pretty good day for us. Greg placed 18th in the morning session and then 21st in the afternoon…

Hey there,
we just drove in to Texas, which means we have about 240 miles to go. We are scheduled to arrive at 1:39am.
We received our daily update and it looks like Greg has decided to make things interesting. We think he took out a cone and received a 10 second penalty. That put us 33rd in the afternoon session and 29th overall. Unfortunately that was a step in the wrong direction for us. Oh well life goes on, tomorrow is a new day and, in class, we are basically right where we started this m…
