Well, I did it. I met my requirements for my Novice license. I had a great time. My little Fiesta was great. No trouble at all. I had an absolute blast! The first day was better. I had a great race with an ITB Rabbit. He would pull me in the straight and I would catch him in the turns. The second day would have been just as well but I came in for a meat-ball flag that was intended for someone else (bummer, lesson learned). I did pick up a little over 2.5 seconds in my times from beginning to end. The last day being my best with a sad 1:36.06. I did not finish last however! I did learn that my car is quite competent in the turns. I can make it better. There seems to be no hope in the straight though.
High points-
Day one: In the final lap there were Miata's battling for position on the last lap. I received a love tap in the door by one in turn 8-9 (No damage to me just a scrape the Miata faired worse). No one lost it and it was a great finish! My car has been christened! Thanks #26!
Day two: Last lap again. There were two Golf's battling for 1st and 2nd. I watch them in the mirror get tangled up a little. They manage to hold it together and catch me. We went three wide in 9. I really did not think my car would hold but it did. It was a blast. I just wish I had been in the hunt for the podium with them.
I know this was long but I had to share. Every one was great and I can't wait to get back.
Many thanks to John #89 in grp 6. Grady #8 for such a great race (were did you find that speed on Sunday!). Greg in the #3 Neon for just being so friendly (I hope I got that right there were two of them). I cannot forget Sam in the #26 Miata for the christening.
