Ed Baus- nice drive at NASA Nationals

Wish they'd post the official results so I could congratulate you on a great race.

BTW- I've seen your car in several videos from inside friends' cars, including the move the Mini put on you in the Keyhole which resulted in the guy chasing you spinning into my friend's GTS3 M3. What a wild race- trying to decide whether to go out on rains or R6's.

Rains were the answer... ...for the first 2 laps only.

That's what I hear. Sounds like the ideal was rain setup on the car with fresh R6's. How bad did you chew up the H2O's?

Ed,

Not too bad.... I kept dialing it back as I realized that even if the rain did come, I wouldn't be able to get back the lead I was losing.... After about 2/3 of the race (Point of no return was about 1/2) I came in and dried my tears.


...back to Ed.. Nice Job. Tell your wife "The lolliop lady" my kids say Hi!
