    That is definitely a silk purse compared to what I saw a few weeks ago. Looks very nice.

    Good to see you guys wised up and came over to the bright side. :lol:

    It's going to be a fun year.

    Yea, that's the correct Chris. Chris Lyons, the AI racer, has also proven himself quite adept at testing the tensile strength of the galvanized woven fencing material surrounding MSRH...

    Although I was driving the lowly Neon, when CM rocketed past me... I did take a mental note of the ferraris, porsches and other fast cars that he was gridded BEHIND and some how came past me IN FRONT of the aforementioned supercars... You CMC2 guys better bring your A-game...

    I know Richard will hate me for this post, cus he was very coy over the weekend and I know he doesn't want any data to get out... HOWEVER, if you don't want the world to know better rent the track for PRIVATE testing... LOL

    Richard is never a big smack talker so I will do it for him... The car is fast and Chris can really get around ANY track... and Richard never really denied the fact that they will be front runners, he just changed the subject to reliability... :twisted:

    I've had the oppertunity to ride with Chris a couple of times and if you ever want your car "pressure tested", he is your man...

    Actually I think it was 22 mph. The REALLY cool part was that you could watch the car go into the fence and spring back on the GPS trace

    Poor wiring caused a short/blown fuse so no daq for the weekend. There might have been a cheap stop watch function as part of my watch on the car at some point during the weekend...
