The only things I see are that there are a lot of places that it looks like you're using more track than you need to, your line could be tighter (hard to really tell with the camera angle) -- and you're not pushing the car consistently to its limit. Like you said, you probably dialed it back a bit.

Good to see such a good turnout for G'ville event!

What was Kevin Kipta driving in B Stock? It doesn't say on the sheet.

I'm so disappointed I didn't make it. Work kept me engaged throughout the weekend.

It sucks that CFR-W doesn't really have a site with lots of runoff. It would be great to be able to push the car and not have to worry about putting it in a field or in the drink!

Gainesville always surprises me. About an hour into the drive up there I always think to myself "This sucks, no autocross is worth getting up at 0430 and driving 2 hours...", but then at the end of the day I'm always singing a different tune, haha.


Excellent course, dry weather, lots of people. Turned out to be a great event! Thanks all!

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
