Read over on Miata.net that some folks lit a port-o-john on fire Saturday night over near T8.

Great event.

Good to see everyone, I was busy instructing and missed most of the visitors, thanks for the water Mike .


Mani locking up and sliding in the oil dry and nearly sideswiping a F430 convertible.... .....I quickly solo'ed him after that....

On track I was able to nail a few 1:33's, I am certain I would have been faster on the older track surface. There are huge ruts in 1 and 5 that really upset the car. I was straddling them in turn 1 and taking 5 super tight on the inside (left wheel inside the curbing)

Here are a few pics

Mani and Calvin in our shaded pit area.







These girls waved to everyone on the grid.



Some random lucky dude.



Calvin preening his car...



Calvin in turn 10



Mani in turn 10 (note the massive body roll, to be addressed shortly)

We didnt see much of that from our end of the pits...gladly...

We did wander down for the drifting and free food. I found the food much better than the drifting sillyness.

I'll have all the photos up by Thursday at the latest, probably by Wednesday, though. I just got home an hour ago
Amazing pics as always! Looking forward to seeing more this week. You should have swung by and said hello. Although I might have seen you this weekend. I saw a few photographers taking pictures of my car.

I am kinda pissed at myself for not making the time to see you guys on Saturday... I even purchased entry for both Bobbie and I but never made it back after Friday night.

Glad everyone had a great time and that no one got too badly beat up.

Yeah. I saw you praying in Mani's last solo session that he doesn't go off-roading. "Rally Mani" is his new nick name given by Eric (Coscoplayer).

It's always a great event when no one gets hurt or cars get beaten up. You should have came Jeff.

I was trying to improve the car's aerodynamic drag.
