Had some fun races, but I’m still disappointed about qualifying. Now I have to come back in March to redeem myself.

WOW. Great video, great driving. Congratulations on the lap record.

*in case anyone is wondering, that was definitely NOT me driving my car. It was Randy Mueller who went on for the win.

Mike were you on R888’s or RA1’s. It sounds like the R888’s aren’t too bad.

#4

I was on my RA-1s from CMP.

Great driving. Too bad the video was cut short. Maybe one of the best SE30 videos I’ve seen.

#7

Could have fooled me…I just thought you were driving well.

While this may be the racing equivalent to asking a woman how much she weighs, out of curiosity, how much faster was Randy than you? What did he say about the car? The caliber of driving by the others in class.

I didn’t drive the car all weekend if I’m who you are asking…

Skeen was the fastest of the weekend with only a couple of others breaking into the .18’s. Randy ran a .18:3 in practice on Sunday. He was very impressed with everyone’s driving, well everyone in SE30 at least…

Nice drive skeen.

JP you have no excuses now since Randy took your car to victory. I have been trying to get him to come race with us for a while. I’m glad he finally decided to do it.

That was the only downside to the win yesterday, I can’t blame the car anymore. Damn.

#12

what camera are you using mike? nice driving!

Old Canon MiniDV ZR70MC.

Interestingly, I was about to ditch it based on the choppiness of the video in the last few races I’ve recorded. Tried different tapes this time and it was much better. The Maxell tapes were crap, the good ones were TDK.

Can’t view them. Player won’t work for me. Will they be posted to YouTube?

#15

Did you download DivX and install it (the link is right there)?

Dowloaded and didn’t work. I got some error message and I have a very short fuse for computer things. :angry:

Google worked fine.
My instructors always told me “Use all of the track. You paid for it”. I wasn’t aware we paid for the lawn too. :lol:
