I had a good time. Got over my hesitations especially at the bottom. Good stuff. 2 more runs and I think I would have had it just about figured out. I finally got into the 56’s there which is pretty darn cool. ---

Event 7 BIMP, 8/13/2006 results are up and points have been updated. Keep in mind there is still a small issue with pax times that needs to be fixed, however it is generally accurate. [http://results.wny-scca.com](http://results.wny-scca.com) ---

That was my first event actually running on race tires instead of just street tires. Man, what a difference. Best time for me was a 61.3…ended up with 6th out of 19 in Novice, which I’m happy about. My pax owns me, lol. Must go faster! ---

Previous to yesterday I was running RE050A’s (I ordered RE050’s on sale, and they ended up shipping me the A’s instead, hehe). Yesterday I ran VictoRacers. ---

Man… All you novices really turned up the heat the last 3 runs. Time for some new tires. My worn ST-115 arent cutting it. ---

If you want to become a better driver, stay of r-comps longer. Race tires to a very good job of hiding mistakes. ---

I had a good time…Its always more fun when you are seeing improvement on each run. I was surprised that I was faster this year, given that my tires are significantly worse. I was hitting the limiter in 2nd on the back straight for the first time so I know I was carrying more speed through the last turn, where I’ve been slow in the past.
