We had a semi-successful return to racing (post stent implant) this past weekend at Hallett with the 142. Only two of us showed up in ITB, but the other car (Chris Albin's VW Golf) is perennially the SCCA Midwest Division ITB champion.

On Saturday, I had him covered, running a faster qual lap and consistently running 2 or 3 tenths of a second quicker laps during the race, winning the 14 lapper by about 3 seconds IIRC. On Sunday though, Chris was apparently on new rubber for the race, and I wasn't. I had out-qualified him, but 2 laps into the 12 lap race, he got by going into turn 2, and...

Naaah, ain't gonna tell ya! You need to watch the video on YouTube (link below). The entire race is posted in two 9+ minute pieces, and well worth the watch, IMHO. :-)
