My best was 1:19.1xx. I can’t remember my other times, waiting for the results from Tri-Vettes.

I _think_ there were only 2 people ahead of me Saturday. The 08 Z06 and crappachio’s CRX. Maybe the C4 ZR1, the driver was very skilled and it wouldn’t surprise me if he was faster.

i dont think that track is big enough to have that much of a difference in time… lol, losing 30seconds on a 1minute 20 second track seems pretty iffy

If I recall correctly, it used to be one lap around the main course, but you’d do two laps around the ‘oval’ where the start is. The pavement started to really take a beating there, so it was changed to no ‘laps’ around the mini-oval, and two laps around the entire course.

I understand Andy, the owner of the Atomic Rabbit, has the ‘track record’ there, somewhere in the neighborhood of 1:11.xxx, so I’ve heard. I don’t know what my best is there, but on Saturday I was down into the 1:13’s.

Why thank you, sir! Yeah, I hate to use excuses, well, not really, but- I really need a new set of tires. My 710’s are pretty much past the point most people toss them. Pretty sure I would have been able to do better, but not sure how much, really.
