2008 is well underway! This year we’ll spend some time with NASA and the BMWCCA, but SCCA and ITR are still my “home base.”

Best local lap times:

  • Laguna Seca: 1:43.3 (track record)
  • Infineon: 1:53.0
  • Thunderhill: 2:05.5 (track record)

A good season debut, despite my first mechanical issue with the car. Had a suspension failure during qualifying on Saturday but still managed to race in, and win, both races. Lots more detail on my blog!

What a fun weekend! Three good things: my whole family was there; all 3 races were incredibly fun. In fact, the Group 5 race was one of my most fun ever. And I set a personal best lap time at Infineon. Bad things: I didn’t win. In fact, I got my butt kicked by ITR’s newest driver. But altogether, still great!

This race was one of the qualifying legs for the IT Triple Crown.

Great weekend! Qualified on the overall pole for the first time, and led flag-to-flag!

Another good one. Won all 3 races. Unfortunately no super-close battles like at the last weekend, but had some tough pressure especially in the first race. Can’t wait for the finale!
