Wow, looks like Charles and Chuck had an awesome race on Saturday for the ITS win! .016 difference at the line???
Fast lap times seem reasonable all around.....sounds like it was a good, clean legal race. That is very good to see.

It was a good weekend, On Saturday had a good race going and Chuck ran into me on the front straight, for no reason and I just missed passing him at the checker, but it was a great race anyway. I really thought I had him, I will post the video soon. Made a sway bar adjustment and for Sunday and finally got the rear planted. So just tooled around by myself for the win. I did have an issue, I looked to see that I had zero oil pressure on the guage coming out of the bowl, pulled onto pit road, when the motor dropped to idle the oil light then came on, reved the motor, light went out, did that a few times figured the guage was bad, went back out, still in front of chuck and still won!! Old ZX still chugging along. Wish you guys had been there.

We had a rough weekend. The ITB Black MR2 cracked a piston at the end of the Satruday race. The ITB Blue MR2 finished second behind the mustang Satruday, and was leading until overheating issues sunday (sans mustang). The ITS civic had igntion issues all weekend. Satruday during the race he was working the way through the field untill a axle blew up. Sunday race ignitor/coil issues ended his run.
I was leading the ITB saturday race on the first lap infront of the Ron in the ITB mustang (he couldnt' find a gear when the greeen dropped). Exiting turn 9 I had about 3 car lengths on him by S/F we were side by side, by turn 1 he was a car length ahead of me. How do I find I dunno 20+ hp again?
Question for Ron. Were you driving the ITS car when yoru dad got into him? We got a first hand view of it as we were right behind him during Saturday enduro. I then saw him go off in turn 9 and do some lawn mowing. Hopefully both cars were okay. I did notice some body damage to the ITS car.

Nice job Charles! And I'm sorry to hear about the various woes. Vids of races and incidents would be interesting to see if you guys have them up.
Jeff and I would love to but we got invited to the GRM/NASA Ultimate Track Car Challenge the weekend before. Hard to pull both off with family time factored in.

Favorite tool to remove undercoating---- A curb!
"Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you."
