Thanks! I couldn't have been more excited to nip Jeremy by just a tenth of a second!

Have you ever seen a cat or a dog run real fast across a tile floor, then try to make a sudden turn? That's what my first run looked like yesterday. My point is that, after that, I enabled traction control - which I always disable at autocrosses. In this case, though, it saved my ass and made me look better than I am.

Note Danny's best run at 39.x, showing us what real driving talent is all about.

I've been to two other autocrosses at that site, and it never felt more slippery than yesterday. It reminds me of how good we have it at Brooksville.

Mark, I also support your "open class" suggestion. Maybe Barry or one of the other BMW / Porsche guys will note your idea. And, I didn't lose a chair. Whose name is on it?
