Comment made at the drivers meeting at Road America this weekend...
"Now remember everyone, there's a lot of high horsepower cars here - lots of Corvettes and the like, so if you see a Subaru coming up behind you, let the guy pass - otherwise, he'll just keep catching up to you".
And no, I didn't get passed by any Subies - then again, I ran in the Novice group since it was my first time there, but god, what an amazing time/track. Can't wait till next year.

Which car was yours man, I didn't see you? I was in the white wagon. Was the black STI that exploded from NASIOC?
I loved it as well...it really puts Autobahn/Blackhawk to shame if nothing else because of the kick-ass elevation changes and runoff areas (one of which I had to take advantage of). |

Hey! ah, I remember seeing your car. I was #58, silver vette, I went with a guy who had a silver G35, near the top of the paddock.
I saw that STi, not sure what happened there, definitely didn't look good. Heck yeah, I definitely agree on the track - so awesome. |

Tracking some of these cars is what they were made for
I dunno about you, but doing 140+mph and not having to worry about a ticket = AWESOME. I am very surprised with the Corvette. On the road it just feels like a very comfortable touring car, handling nothing too great - you get out on the track and its like goes through a transformation, just unbelievable. God I love having 400 bhp/tq |

Do you remember the name of the guy who made this comment? Was it possibly a character in a black zo6? |

Only a few evos and S2Ks, but yeah, good point!!
Triple, it was one of the guys from either RA or Mid West F-Body, don't know if he was a driver and it wasn't that guy Rudy who has a C5 Z06. |

I was 2 cars behind you and only saw the "recovery", which seemed to be well done! The black sti blew a hole in the top radiator hose, I believe. |

At least he didn't blow his motor - someone said they thought he spilled oil but it must have been coolant. |
