Fun few days at the track. First time in awhile there were no issues with any of the cars. Nice to meet Ray, Tim and Kurt. Ed good to see you out on the track (I will bring the e series over for repair soon). Dave you should have gotten your father in law out. Surprise guest fun Jan showed up And of course always fun time with Roger and George. !

Good time as always. Ed nice to see you out there, and too bad you got the mighty midget as a mentor. But on a good note you were signed off to go solo by one tough perfectionist instructor, good job. Tim and Ray, nice to meet fellow CF members that are track guys, good driving it was fun. We all know that Bob in his neculear powered bannana is very fast, but hats off to Roger, he was hauling azz everytime he was on the track and I was trying as hard as I could to keep up with him, but I haven't reached Rogers level yet. Here's a shoutout to the contingent of vettes that came up from the DC area from Chin motorsports, nice to meet you guys ad too bad we didn't get a chance to run with you guys. All in all it was a great two days, weather was perfect, track was in good shape, all the drivers were respectful, it "the perfect storm".

George good to see you grew a set and took the nannies off. The second day you were putting down some good lap times.
Roger and I traded places a lot and I agree Roger has stepped up his game. Im loving it now i have someone to play with on the track.

Yeah I agree, playing with yourself all the time becomes boring. 
It looks like Dave is on his way nicely, some good driving by him also. But I told Dave, if he comes to the track again with chip ahoy chocolate chip cookies without ice cold milk again, he's out. BTW, I started to change tires and brakes this afternoon, and both front rotors are cracked all the way through the fins.....I thought I felt something, but I just ignored it. Yes I did take all of the nannies off for the first time since I''ve been tracking the car 04/or 05, hmmmm, if I''m that fast with the nannies on, watch out because now they're off.

Thanks guys. Good to meet other corvette drivers. Tim and I have been running with BMW CCA as of late. Very well run and good price per day of track time, and they had us thinking we were fast until we met you guys this week. It was fun chasing you for 1/2 a lap at a time until you disappeared into the sunset. 
Those are some beasts you are driving but obviously the mod behind the wheel is the biggest factor. very well done. Till next time ...

Guys, I processed a video and merged data in from Trackmaster which is an app for android phones. This is the first time I used it. Crappy old camera and the audio sux so turn down your speakers a bit. This is from 3rd run on Friday. http://youtu.be/qoxrfQVS-7k
