Hey John and Bill,

I will be there also. Won't be fast as I will be on street tires, sliding around and having fun.

Rob! Dammit - when nobody responded to this at first, I decided I'd wait for a track day when I could catch up with a bunch of you. I just emailed my boss yesterday and told him I'll be at work Friday.

It was a good fun day. Nice to get back out on the track after not going for awhile. Its too bad you couldn't come John. Rob and I had a street tire battle and Bill was doing full spin outs 3-4 times per session with the top down . I'll see you at Button at the end of the month?

Yeah, pretty sure I'm just going to run it up on the credit card and do it. It's been too long.

BTW - I was at Sportcar Motion the other day to borrow scales and Loi mentioned you'll be driving their Integra in Time Attack. NICE! Congrats.

Put in a good word for a broke lawyer that could use a sponsor ;-)

It was actually only 4 total but seemed like a lot. My car with the SO2s was pushing severly during midturn and exit. Turn in was okay with trailbraking but I was getting on the throttle too early before the rear had set which caused me to spin. Aaron advised me to feather the throttle until the rear had traction and seemed to help. The RA1s corrected the understeer for the most part and was good for 3 secs from 34.x to 31.x. It was actually fun driving on street tires except for the understeer. Didn't realize the stock S had so much understeer even with an "aggressive alignment." It was also good to see some new faces. bill
