This time attack event would be my last of the season competing in the OnGrid PNW time attack series. I was already on track to win the chamionship pointswise, but I had one second place finish by .1 seconds that I need to beat. At my la…
Another weekend... another Time Trial event at the Ridge! This time with SCCA, which meant I would get to run my Max2 build and go out and compete, which is not something I can say I've run in quite some time. Read on to hear all about h…
More information to come on Phase 3 of this car... if we ever get there. I'll admit, winning was the best and worst thing that happened to our team. Interest immediately waned, and the cost to make this car competitive in A class was ast…

So I was hoping to make this the 60th event for my car... but it just didn't happen. No worries though, I'll be doing a fun happy 60th birthday party for this car with a cake at the next event! This even was a big group gathering. We had…
