If I may answer for Barry:
You can use 3rd gear anytime you like. Please start in 3rd gear and drive the whole course in 3rd gear. (hey, it works for Dennis in the Super Stalker!)
(on a more serious note, the airport doesn't want us driving more than 60 mph... that generally means little or no use of 3rd gear)

Fun event! The course was good, got a few runs in the Yaris, and more than a few in the "Lemon". Even took an M Roadster out for an "instructor run"!
I don't know how Barry will make sense of the results... we had about 4 different drivers in the race car all driving under my #11!
Oh well, I know my fastest runs were 44.9 in the race car and 43.7 in the Yaris. (and 44.2 in the Roadster)

the lemon car was fun as hell to drive. Though the brakes need to bleed I think. It does make me want to hurry up and finish my car. It was addicting

We haven't touched the brakes, I'm sure they need a full flush and bleed with some good fluid. I was impressed with how well the car stopped after the finish. Much better brakes than my Yaris.
I think we got really lucky on our initial setup on that car. Just a little bit of tweaking and it will be freakin' awesome!

What a great time and fantastic course! This was our first BMW club outing and we had a blast! Great to meet you folks. I'll post up some video's my wife shot of a few of the people running when I get them put together.
Thanks for a great day!
