Congratulations to all the champs and winners of the races over the weekend.
I too had a really great weekend. Other than being real tired and quiet it was perfect. No doubt that it makes the weekend so much better because of the group and how everyone treats each other. You guys do a good job of making a wannabee rookie welcome. I am really looking forward to next year.
Drove the car in the trailer under its own power without any weird noises and completed every session so I am :D Now I only have to go a 1,000 laps without anything happening to be considered an IRONMAN!
I also need to extend a big thanks to Glenn and Mitch for really spending so much time getting me involved with the group and looking after me so much. I know I certainly need the help. It has been such a big help to me from the beginning of talking about what kind of car to get, to trying to run a Lincoln Continental off the road on I45 at 11 o'clock last night.
if you had a working radio you would have been able to play along too. and we shall never speak of this again. OK? :wink:Quote:

just for reference sake, this is tanget #1.
Congrats to all and I must say this was probably one of the funnest race weekends we have had in the two years I have been doing this. Kudos to all and Congrats to all our regional champions and that goober Burch for his outstanding effort at nationals!!!
Certainly has been a wild year overall and I feel absolutely fortunate for having been able to race with this group this year.
Sunday's race with Daron was an absolute blast! Finally, the teacher and the student were able to go have fun on track with equal beasts!!! That car is going to be wicked fast when they complete the aero and start working on tuning it. I think I am going to have to do some more work on mine to stay ahead! Between Mason/Daron, Donovan and others, I think next year in AI could be as close as CMC has been this year. Time will only tell.
I LOVE the new track config!!! Once I popped that damn cone out of the way in turn 1, it became extremely fun! The run off area at the carousel was used a couple times and that curb isn't as bad as it looks! :oops:
Only looking forward to next year and finding a way to make nationals to make good on what I kept getting told this weekend. Thanks for the ego boost guys! I really appreciate it.
thanks Mitch - it was great to finally be able to race the car after spending the best part of a year building it! We are very happy with the way it's worked out - so much custom fab and untested systems in that thing and the only part that missed a beat was the ABS pump failed (a part we had not messed with). Looking forward to getting some front aero on the car and getting the suspension sorted.
It looks like AI in Texas is going to be better than ever next year - Frank and David K lift their game every time they drive and will be doing more car improvements over the winter - Mr Lyons says he will be back with a new motor - Skip says he is going to make his black 05 AI legal - rumour has it that a well known HPDE/Time Trial blue 05 Mustang will appear in AI trim come February - and many AI cars are sprouting mysterios shiny new black wings - so we should have a good sized field of very competitve cars next season!
Congrats to all of this year's champs!
He had a fender, so I gave him 3/4 car width. ;)Quote:

Sort of nice when the tires stick out from the body about 3"!!! Stupid ass just kept on going. I am sure he got a nice surprise when he got home.... :lol:Quote:

That is the way I always go now.... I don't think it is a great time saver, but usually is a little easier.Quote:

Hats off to the Champs, you guys did a great job.
Thanks to the entire group for a great season and a ton of support. It's great to run here in Texas.
Thanks to Mitch for allowing me to race his car in R2 when my motor went on vacation. That was a real treat, although frustrating as hell. I'm just not the driver yet who can adapt to any car in 2 labs and it was so different from mine I couldn't get a handle on it in 20 minutes. I do have torque envy though... damn that horse pulls.
Thanks to Jeff, Adam, and Glenn for flying the Argent Lab colors and bringing home results that any sponsor could hope for. A National Championship, 2 Regional Championships, and Track Records all over the country. You guys are putting my little piss-ant company on the map and I only wish I could do more for you.
Finally, thanks again Jeff. You made me focus on my car, most often against my will, and take the steps to go faster. True Champion in my book. PITA too... :lol:
