That actually is a good point. The last time we were here I remember Oz and myself battling it out during this set. I reviewed this race quite a bit of time and must say the both if us at least kept 2 tires just on the inside of the white lines, ( meaning on the track ).
I would have to say that keeping with that you can't blow straight through those chicane. Now all we need is a message from Go.... i mean Flip ;-)

At 370 whp I find very few Hondas to keep up at all, but alas I am thinking of going back NA along with Frankensteining the engine with an ITB setup ;-). It is of course the precursor to the F20C ;-)
Anytime your in NYC or Connecticut you have a place to stay too :-) would love for you to either help out on my build or take a ride in it if it is running by then ;-)
Also to add to that hit list KG are a bunch of evos, STIs, BMWs, and quite a few Porsches :-)

Your blessed with a wife like that and so am I :-).
Which Honda meet? My wife is pushing me to sell my '07 Accord now to fund my '92 Accord. The only problem is I have 2 things from it. That V6 would go perfect into a Miata and the whole Brakes and suspension would be a job on the '92 but it would make a great donor car :-)
Hey an AP1 next time ;-) unless it is a CR.

You'd probably have smoked me then lol, I've got a 91 mustang gt and a 94 gt haha. I've got the 91 up to 350whp and is in pretty nice conditions, but the 94s a turd and has rust all over, I just beat on it, maybe I'll lemons it someday.

Guys it looks like I am out for the forseeable future due to getting too frigging old to keep all the balls in the air and keeping SWMBO ( She who must be obeyed) off my back. I may stop by for the occasional GT TOUR with you guys just to be socialable. You guys are the greatest...
Flip keep it...your series are THE GREATEST.

I got disconnected right after the race finished. So that was fun.
So, I don't have the points cards ready, but I can say that @miata13B and I'll Owe You Won Racing have taken both titles for April. I'll leave it up to you two, but for your team Miata, your cars can run #1 & #2 for next month.
Now: Policy change.
People not being able to see each other has been a known issue with GT. What we did in between the two races to make sure everyone is on track will be done BEFORE qualifying for the rest of the season, and for the coming series after. That way, if someone needs to jump out and reset, it can be done without effecting anything for the race. So everyone try to get in by 11:40 pm EST, that way we can keep things relatively on schedule and do the check then.
What we'll do is meet up at a place near the pit exit and make sure everyone is visible. Hopefully, we can avoid confusion and having a bunch of people leaving.
Also, we're entering a new month, and we've had some people leave the series for various reasons. We're at the time where I will allow car switching to reform teams that have fallen apart, or to create new ones. Talk about it to me first.
Sidenotes: No, I have no idea why it decided to start me 3rd on the grid for the Main.
@draqua_fresh The last 35 minutes or so was good fun!

May I suggest a quick BOP for the cars that we currently have vs. adding even more, as we know the Mazda's are really fast, and that cars like the Integra and the brz/86 struggle. I recommend that we use the age old BOP style from fighting games and balance slower cars up to the mazdas, while leaving the mazdas just as fast so that it won't punish the Mazda guys for picking that car. I'll do some data crunching from the past seasons races and try to come up with something. But it's up to you @flip55 if you want to implement them.
