  Your pictures are great and your description of the conditions for Saturday are spot on. The wind added to the excitement on my one and only pass adding to that I had a good amount of other issues going on with the car. Always exciting for the first run of the new season just wish the excitement was a fast time slip oh well maybe the next time. Gregg stop by and say hi I would like to meet you.

Ron, I'm the old bald headed dude with the moustache that did stop and chat for a minute.....literally.
You were busy with the car and I didn't want to take to much of your time.
I'll stop by again next month and chat longer.

See you in June,
Gregg

Kinda curious as to when the results will be posted. I am especially interested in the yellow #531 C/StR with the skirts and extended rear fenders. Does anyone know if the car set a record and was certified?

Other than a breezy Sat afternoon looks like a great LSR event. Enjoyed the pictures and facebook posts. Congrats to all the record beakers. I wish I have the time to drag out the 2100 but not this year.

Thanks to of the ECTA folks and volunteers.

On way out, Donna Timney told someone that they would be home Tuesday. Takes a day or so to get settled in and results up so by the end of the week I would think.
