The Friday terminology is throwing me off - is it practice FOR qualifying, or are the sessions actual qualifiers?

Traditional qualifying. I added the links to my original post.

Jeremy and I saw a silver ITA Miata heading southbound on I-95 this morning, on an open trailer being pulled behind a toter. Someone heading to NJMP?

We picked up Jeremy's new-to-him E46 ZHP in East Windsor NJ; wish we'd had more time to go all the way and spend the day with you guys!

- Greg

[Ed Funk]

You nearly "went all the way" with Jeremy?!!?! Holeee Crap! There's a different forum for that....moderate yourself!

[Fred Fox]

Congrats John Hainsworth on the new track record!

[JohnnyH]

Thanks Tim and Fred, it means a lot to finally have a record somewhere, especially at my home track. Sorry to see Fred lose his motor on Friday. At least Tim took the ITA win on Saturday before the starting gremlins showed up Sunday - congrats!

Big thanks to all of the stewards, tech workers and volunteers who came out to support the series! Tech was great, we were weighed after every session and ride height was checked several times too. Terry ran a tight ship and it was certainly in-line with how the series should present itself during a pro weekend.

I'm working on the videos, got some new software to figure out but hope to post them soon...
