    Hi,
    It was a great event - I enjoyed it so much I did it twice! :)
    I learned a lot about the way my new car handles and what are its limits (and how late the GT36R kicks in...)
    It was great seeing you guys,
    Hope we meet again soon.
    thanks

    Tal

    BTW - managed to do 55 sec. - I need much more practice to run the car smoothly.

    I was only there Sunday, thats probably why you didn't see me. What a great lot. I can't wait to run it again in the summer time when its extra sticky.

    yeah, i second that milo.
    my car never turned in so fast. my rear was rotating like a champ. (insert joke here)
    i wish i could have hung out more, but i just had too many things going on. i really didn't ever say hello to you, milo/alex. my bad!
    i ran a 57.9 my first lap and got slower each time. i did this the last race, too. i don't know how i can get slower each lap, but oh well. the SWEET V8 MG got me 2 re-runs, though. that was a nice surprise.
    does anyone know if the photographer up at the drifting even is ok? i heard it was pretty bad. i really hope he's ok. it wasn't anyone on here was it?

    Its a pretty big region. Normally about 80-120 drivers depending on the venue. Its not nearly as organized or competitive as AR, but its fun and good practice.
    They give out trophies at every event, so you can feel special. There are a bunch of us in Clemson that race there. You should also look at CCR, since they do races at Knights Stadium right near "rockthrill". SCR has a non-points event race Dec. 2nd for charity in Orangeburg.
