944’s make me LOL. Why would anyone race one of those turds over a E30?
VIR Lap Dance 2012
Fun weekend at the track with guys coming up from the SE and Mike jumping back in an E30. Saturday’s race wasn’t very eventful, most of the front runners ended up racing out of class cars more than E30s.
…Sunday’s race was fun, Skeen and I both clicked off a few 2:17.7’s.
Here are a few laps from Sunday’s race: http://youtu.be/B--y3sfKyJ8
Here’s my contribution:
Had a great time getting out there with you guys again. SE30 FTW!
One word for this blunder: Goober.
How was the mid-pack racing?
Congratulations to Skeen for the two wins.

Here is the good part of Saturday’s race and the majority of Sunday’s race…

That might come off a little harsh.
Sounds like good strategy for a guy who can rip it in the wet. If conditions looked like it might rain, I’d have done the same (and woulda done a hell of a rain dance on grid).
[quote=“victorhall” post=63616]Robert,
What’s the scoop on the Sunday DQ?

Vic!
Long story short, I accidentally tapped the red 911 that was racing Mike and I for the SE30 lead and he spun. I was attempting to get a run through the lower esses hoping that I could get by him before the uphill esses…it didn’t work. I thought he cracked the throttle or something becuase I didn’t anticipate being on him that quick - but either way, it was my fault.
Bummer!!! I can sympathize
I still can’t believe you guys busted out 2:17.7’s at VIR. That’s AWESOME!

TPR plans to go back in March and I know Levine and Tower also plan to attend. Let’s get more Goobers from the SE to join us!

Robert, I watched about 3 laps of Saturday’s race, at least until the yo-yo racing with the e36s started. No fun.
Tell Cobetto that you guys need a separate start.
