      Very impressive guys. Your only a few little ticks off Schwartz Ultima. I have to tell you, getting 2 days in the seat of the Yellow GSX has me sold the little I was sckeptical. Man the car is so cool and rides so good. And Bret and I had this one on ramp coming out of Clevland with a badly off caber curve in it, full of hefty bumps a divits. Ya Know, a typical inner city northern road! Made my ass pucker I tell ya! You guys should just do ride and drives on that corner. I have never felt anything pull that kind of Gs in a weird corner like that and ride so well doing it. I ordered A Street Challenge Kit for project EmptyNest on the spot.

      I am only disappointed I could not hang for the Autocross. But I will be in Atlanta next week looking for some car keys!

      I coulda kicked myself in Evansville. I thought the Autocross was the next morning like the drag race so I only got to do one run. GREAT event, though.

      8 cones on my first run, jeez I did not think I would need to brake for the first right. Running through cones, literally ( lol ) is alot different than running a road course, which only goes to show the nut that needs the most help, in my case, is the one behind the steering wheel.

      The car felt really good. Predictible, balanced, easy to steer with the throttle. Hard to get a really good idea on such a short course with only one run though. I was pleased with my time considering it was my first run. There were a lot of places I probably could have gone faster with another few goes of it.

      x2 Bill. It was really fun and yes, I made it home with no issues. It was great meeting all the forum guys in real life. I look forward to doing more events with everyone in the future. I hope to be at RTTH.

      I also wanted to give a huge shout-out to the boys from G-Force Design who very graciously offered their wrecker (and mechanical help) when needed. I can't say thanks enough. And for those that have never seen it...Fuel is even cooler in person. If you're thinking of building a PT car...they'd be my first stop.
