Sam thanks for the sun !!!! god it was a good time ! i would like to thank all the workers . and a big thanks for Carl's two boys . they seam like good kids and it was dam nice they helped out . the down side was watching Sam pull his hair out with the time trial portion . there were way to many catch ups causing reruns ! that left us with only 15 minnets of free run time .

Nice job.Sam. :sunny: :sunny: As far as catches,it was very difficult to get any kind of accurate lap times, as Monday was a wash all day,and one practice on Tues was not enough to learn the dry lines well enough to get an accurate time either. So,it becomes a guessing game.Do you guess on the fast side,and cause someone to catch you? Or guess slow,and catch someone? I think what happened is a combination of both. If you had never been to WG before,it was difficult to fall back on any numbers. All in all,it worked out ok,but it was a shame the track closed at 4:30. I mean what the Hell? It's the middle of the week.Who could be sleeping at that time? :lol:

yes it was very hard to get an estimated time . the track was so green and just got faster and faster as the day went on . the last time i was there was 16 years ago and i was running a vw then . so thous times were no good . my estimated time was way off . i went about 6 seconds faster .
