I took the car racing this weekend, with postive results. It was my first time racing outside of the Mt Shasta weekend. On saturday I was fighting a nonadvancing dizzy and managed to find my way to 4th place in class (Vintage street prep). I was the only one on street tires in class. Sunday I managed to do a little better and was 3rd, again the only car in class on street tires. The car is much faster than the times reflect, I seriously need new tires to be running with the top times. I think the car is there, it just lacks the grip the others have. It drifts very well; turn wheel, add power, and around I went. Instant 2nd gear powerslides. Before next month, new tires.

If anyone is interested, NorCalUFO will be hosting an autoX drivers school on Sept 30 and another autoX on Oct 1st. The school is $50 per person, it includes lunch, full instruction (if wanted) and lots of runs. I'll be attending both.
