Hi,

I wanted to post the time for reference along with a link to the results, 
but for reasons unknown, the results seem to have dissapeared from the 
site where they had been posted.

FWIW, I won the class, but I was the only entrant. The car also ran with 
two drivers in D mod and I covered the D mod field too. I beat the guy who 
has been driving the car to years by about 4 seconds over two days.

Not bad considering that I'd never sat in the car before.

Hi Marty!

Check out some of the other vids that I've posted. I'm not usually that 
smooth but I do know how to find the limit. Even beyond the limit on 
occasion.

regards,
rml
