"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

Chad, you scared me dude. I'm on the radio with you and I hear "On the roof! On the roof!" and my stomach sunk. I think I darn near beat the abmulance to the cutover ;-).

I'm really glad you're ok and all that safety gear did it's job. We'll get it put back together in our usual better-than-before condition.

As for my driving, I had a great time. I only got 4/6 sessions in but that's ok. I skipped my last session on Sunday in favor of getting home nearly 2.5 hours earler.

The XR held up well, amazingly well in that heat. I drove it 10/10ths all weekend and it didn't get remotely close to overheating. That's a big hurdle crossed in my book. Now, the transmission is spewing fluid for some reason, but I don't think it was heat related. It started during my last session at Summit Main a few weeks ago.

Highlights of the weekend include Chad's and my win at the Karting Enduro, passing my fair share of fast cars in HPDE 3 while still on street tires, getting an official race car log book on the XR, and Maeng saying "I followed you up turn 7 and as you accellerated out you lit up your rear tires. Damn that thing has a lot of power!". :-).

Good to see everyone too. As always, can't wait until next time!

Sorry man, I kept saying it b/c I couldn't believe it myself and at first I was a little scared b/c I didn't know if I could get out, but gravity took over and I managed. Thanks for coming to check on me.
