Spectacular weekend at Mid O with NASA. Perfect weather. Really stating to figure out the car and push more. Brakes are so good I am still getting used to them. @dragoon @steveespo nice seeing some fellow members.

We saw Kohr and them testing some Dark horse Rs. Capaldi was also there!

Next event Gingerman!

Gingerman Recap!

2nd time heading to Shore haven MI and the first time I hated that track lol. Just could not find the rhythm. Now that was 3 years ago and Julie is a whole different animal. By the 2nd session of the day on Sat I really started to like gingernman. I can honestly say I drove the car 10/10th this weekend. First time in my short little career doing this I have done this. Now I need to work on my lines and carrying more speed out of the corners but who doesn't right?

Topping off the great weekend with a certificate moving me from 3 to 4 and qualifying me for competition school! NCM in March should be comp school then we going racing boys!

Thanks again for the hospitality Andy! We had a blast and can’t wait to head back up. Did Tony get his wheels back yet? Or did you sell them to a random badger on the way home?

Sell them? I saw a homeless guy on the way home and gave them to him. They can make a nice table and chairs set for that man. Its what Tony would have wanted.
