Who's Fast??? Now with pics!! Well the results are in for Round 3....
I came in 1st by .150 seconds
There were 9 STS drivers for this event, most were 1st timers, but at least there was some stiff compition by the owner of the car I was co-Driving. My best time, 45.175 His best time 45.325 and we were both driving the same car. 3rd place was almost 2 seconds back
Also, I go 3rd in PAX for the event, out of 94 cars, and 20th In RAW time.
And On a side note.... I did out run 2 different SRT-4s this event, by .792 for one and 3.945 seconds for the other. I guess Horsepower aint everything...
all in all it was a great day for racing, the sun was shining, the track was fast, and the little 89 Si was lovin every minute out on course.
Can' t wait for Next weekend, Pro Solo Here I come!!!

Rep Power: 400 Yeah, I outran an SRT this weekend too. No camber and 6" wheels is gonna kill those things.
Unfortunately Ron handed my *** to me. At least he was sympathetic enough to give me a bunch of pointers afterwards.

Rep Power: 356 Dam I'm going fast..... 
This is Dave, Hes the Owner of the car. (ya, hes old enough to be my dad...)
I really Love that little 89 si, Its a Slot car compaired to how my 01 Ex is set up. (and being 500 LBS lighter doesnt hurt either).
Heres some of the compition. I came in 1st with a 45.175 Dave came in 2nd with a 45.325
This guy came in third 46.967
Fourth 47.338
Fith 48.435
Sixth 49.801
ect ect ect......
We had 9 STS cars out, it was great. Only 5 of us were Regulars, and the rest 1st timers. Hopefully they come back, seemed like a good bunch.

Rep Power: 388 You are allowed seats that weigh more the 15lbs with brackets in STS I believe the new rule states. Even if you get wheels that weigh less you can PERMANENTLY attach materials to get them to 15lbs. What do the stock seats weigh?

Rep Power: 356 Sadly My pro race career is allready over Most professional teams won't even look at you if your over 21. (I'm 25) But I do plan on eventually running a Spec class or maybe Improved Touring once Money becomes more avalible.
I'll be taking a lot of Pictures, as well as getting some Video of the Pro Solo.
