Default PCA/BMW Rookie Autocross 2/22

Beautiful weather - first part of the prgram was splitting the course in half and practicing and instruction - 2nd part were the actual runs.

Cool meeting Kris and a few others - I finally feel like I'm starting to drive my car better - 2nd autocross with this particular Porsche and getting more dialed in - still a ways to go.

not doing back flips - but 2nd in my class and ahead of quite a few boxsters who usually are faster in autocross.

John is getting better and better in his '85 911E. That's good to see.

What model was Mickey driving? He's the body shop manager for the last dealership I worked for. Good to see him autocrossing.

And do you have a pic. of the times for whatever class Mike Wickersham was in with the blue S-2000?
