Hey Ben,

It looks like you learned that from one of my school videos. :)

Are we safe to assume that the only thing damaged was your ego?

Yup...car is still straight! I qualified 3rd in class...5th on the grid. The start was S-L-O-W! We took the green at about 30 mph. Needless to say...my '84 RX-7 is not a torque monster! I got smoked by all the Hondas when the green flew and I was frustrated to say the least! This was a prime example of driving frustrated instead of intelligently. You can see that I lose the rear at the exact time that I hit the concrete patch.

By the way Gregg...Jake Gulick told me to contact you about an Isaac setup. I am definitely going to get one H+N system in one form or another before next season!

Jake? Oh, I don't know about that guy... ;)

Your spin reminds me of my first spin, which was at an SCCA school. It was one of those infield road courses, perfectly flat with a grass runoff that seemed to go on forever. I was in an open-cockpit car and distinctly remember blue sky, clouds and grass clippings all spinning around.

funny guy........

sucks Ben! I wish they would pave all the gravel traps, although it would put a big dent in shop vac sales!

At least you don't have blue armco paint on the car! Good idea on the H&NR ...gregg has some great products at all price points.

Gregg, be nice to ben,as Ben's a guy who knows some cops in your neck of the woods...........

Geez Ben, you did that in the dry? I was really expecting to see video from Saturday in somewhat more "challenging" conditions! :lol:

Hey Ben - its Jo from Smartys Auto! Great video - in our neck of the woods, we have nothing but dialup ISP service available so I'll have to have Robert come down to my office in Catskill to view it (where I have cable modem svc.). I told him about the video and he said .... :119: :P - and is very glad u didnt hurt the car!
He's off to Nelson Ledges in Ohio this weekend for the final enduro in the NESCCA enduro series and looks good for winning the 2005 championship :smilie_pokal:
Take care - call if you need anything!
