The results probably are not in yet. I think what you are seeing is just the format outline.
Or maybe un-usually high sunspot activity!

Thanks everybody for making this event a success -- especially the folks that shagged the same cone(s) over and over as I came through their sections.  Who designed this damn course anyway?

Cool pictures Nathan.  I've got a bunch a friend of mine took today that I'll get posted in the next day or two.  All the ones of me seem to have corner workers running in the background.  I should really stop hitting those orange things.

Thanks again folks.  It looks likes Verizon will have us back in Feb.  Stay tuned to the forum for details about that and the upcoming tech party.

ABS, ESC, etc etc.... i just wanted to get back to that for a second because no matter how good a driver you are, they both can save your life, coming from someone who recently spun his STI as over 75MPH on the freeway (uhhhh bald RE070s, and about 3" of standing water) - ESC likely would have prevented the spin.... Also having been in Colorado for most my life, it can be a life saver (again, literally) when conditions go from so so to black ice...

I will agree that while auto-xing any decent driver should be able to drive beyond the limits of ESC w/o much problem, but if you think you're that bad ass of a driver that you don't need it during inclimate weather, i'd suggest you try lane changes on i25 in the middle of denver at 45mph and snow pack or try to trek up the mtn to go snow boarding at 6am so you can catch the fresh pow...

As for the event, yes it ruled.... and went very smoothly, I think we might want to reconsider the morning/afternoon split thoug, if the events continue to be 100+ drivers there is a lot of time "wasted" by doing worker changeouts... If we continue to grow (Lord willing) it will not be pheasible for too much longer.

just my .02

No pics of my car Sad , but a terrific picture of my friend's car (Blue Mazda 3) He'll be pleased.

This was my first time and I had a blast. I will definitely be back for the next one.

Do we have a head count for the event? Looked like a bunch of folks, all of whom left with smiles on their faces.
