Thanks mark.. I wish I seen that video before getting out there... I like the boxing out teh corner approach to try to set jim up.. in the haripin. atleast it seem intentional
Wasn't intentional. Shoulda tucked in behind him to get a better flow out of T6 to try to stay with Meno. Didn't matter anyway, Meno's car has way more power than mine and Jim's. I suspect that is pretty evident from the video.

The luck of the Irish
Marc, thanks for posting that video. How Finley didn't get pounded when he corrected his spin and came back across the track is amazing or just the luck of the Irish. That kat can drive! It doesn't appear that he had any help turning around going into the turn. And it was awesome how he caught it before hitting the inside tires and turned it back around. That Kat can drive.
What your clip doesn't show is how Mike Flynn got really sideways as he exited turn one and my initial thought, as Finley snapped around backwards on my left, was that he was effected by seeing Irish Mike's loose looking exit just ahead of him. That combined with coming into the turn hot and tight inside, if he braked just a bit extra as Mike got sideways it might have turned Finley around.
I checked up a bit due to Finley going backwards and thinking he might slide out in front of me. Otherwise I might have made up a few feet on Irish Mike. While everyone scattered around the near wreck, Irish Mike was already going through the chicane and lapping the back of the field. Well, almost.

We all sit and complain about such trivial stuff and forget how dangerous our sport really is. Keep Alan and his family in your prayers.
Please take this a a wake up call to pull the pin on your fire system. Sit in your car belted in with all your gear and make sure you can see and easily discharge the system. Too many good people have died lately.

Christine, Your family is in our prayers. I met Alan a few years back, and he loved being at the track.
Godspeed Alan!
Godspeed Alan!
Got my videos up after getting back to my computer finally.
720p HD video with DashWare by Chasecam for the DL1 overlay.
Started 1st, finished 2nd by 0.7 in ITA, after getting shafted by an RX-7 out of the bus stop, which was enough to not allow me to catch up. Had a faster race lap and everything. Interesting race with an incident in T1 on the first lap, lots of Rx-7s going off, and being held up by ITS/ITR cars in the turns the whole race.
Part 1 - has some good action of Turn 1 mess, and then some nice passing/side by side/me getting cut off by RX-7s
Part 2 - some Rx-7 spins, some grass cutting, man those ITR/ITS cars are slow in the turns.....
