> Holy crap was that a tight finish on the saturday course. Its nice to borrow rides though, I did that all last year while my car was down hehe. Nice driving though, what class were you in SM2?

The last 4 vids are fixed!

So anyway, I actually ran in OSP with that sanctioning body this year. I only did that because I used a LS1/T56 swapped '93 RX7 earlier in the year that wasn’t SM2 legal. My car, the yellow Z06 and the black non-Z06 'vette that I also used this year could all run SM2 though.

As for the course on Sat the whole last 20-30 seconds was tight. I’m sure you noticed in the far back corner I’m basically doing a bunch of switch-backs. It was actually 4 pin-cone turns which (when viewed from above) roughly made a “B” shape. You can see the two big circles earlier in the course. When you viewed the course-map it sort of said “BOO.” Hardy har har. The very last hair-pin on Saturday was very tight… it went from a 60’ wide shoot into a 20’ shoot.

On Sunday that was opening up, along with a few other sections that just flowed better. All-in-all I ran ~4 seconds faster on Sunday than Saturday in a car that is about 150RWHP down (320ish vs. 470ish). Of course, HP isn’t the key element in AutoX anyway.
