This looks like my next course design. Only flaw is we dont have enough cable for the start and finish lights. Therefore we will have to make the "finish" cone a pivot cone and come back down to the "start" for the finish. With this pivot cone it should help equalize the horsepower handicapped cars with the higher horsepower cars IMHO.:eek:

Or just make it shorter. After about 60mph your z06 will definately pull on me,

I think the next event should do Jim's pivot cone thing but we should make it a relay race with teams.

I think a straight line with pivot cone relay would spark an AWD penalty....:(

that's why we should have teams. as long as each team has the same number of awd cars it should be okay :)

Todays course was amazing(I'm kicking myself and my car for breaking today of all day), I love the fast courses:)

Best course ever today. Was so intense I remember being out of breath at the end of my runs. Finally a course where I can use most of my horsepower :D

Today I learned that I'm only a fast driver in a slow car. Fast cars get ahead of my brain and I do fun things like overshoot my braking zones and drive over cones because I'm scared to turn the wheel at 75 mph. :lol:

Suuuure use that as an excuse....it was just pointed out to me that with your major cone-age I actually ended up with a better time than you in the afteroon! Granted you have never driven my car before, but still gives me hope hehe. Hopefully with the rest of the season in novice running morning and afternoon for more seat time, I'll be able to hang with the SM guys by next year.
And 75? I recall seeing WAY higher speeds than that on the back side bouncing the rev limiter in 3rd gear....

Yeah, I had a cone on my first run I didn't know about, or I would have had you. You broke my streak of 5 or 6 winning codrives! :lol: I can say that your car is REALLY good; you don't really need to do much more to it to make it an SM-winning ride. Just bring some wide A6s or V710s next year and you're set.

You guys are making me so jealous dammit. The good news is that I missed racing because I was winning a tennis tournament. The bad news is that the trophy is a golden pig. Not kidding, a golden pig.
