I have been so busy with the family that I haven't run a lap either. I really need someone to post a lap time, any lap time to set the laps for tonight.

HELP!!!

My best in practice this morning was 2:32, so fast guys are probably 2:27-8, maybe as low as 2:25? i'm not a good benchmark, but maybe it'll help as a ballpark figure.

With graduations this week (2 for my kids) and holiday planning, shopping (off up north Saturday morning) I haven't done any laps and I apologize for not being prepared this week. Going on a hunch and no_affiliations times we will go with 17 laps tonight.

See everyone there and good luck to all.

Seeing affiliations' numbers, I think he is right. I was either at his time or 4 seconds faster. I forget which. I'm sure 17 laps is fine. Let's go racing!

Awesome last race everyone!  Ironically it was probably one of my best races all series, not just the finishing position but my overall performance because I ran surprisingly consistently laps all race long which can be unusual for me.  I've really enjoyed the whole series too, great car on some great tracks with some great racing!

Thankyou very much LLF for supplying us with all this greatness :).

I didn't run out of gas or get disco'd! It was also one of my best races. An error on lap one cost me time/position, but all good after that. Awesome pace dawson, especially the start. You set the bar early and didn't back off.

Thanks for the praise Turbo!  I definitely pushed out hard at first but as the tire wear increased you handled it better or had a tune better suited to it.  You were reeling me in pretty good there, and then I did that huge (graceful even?) spin/slide before the final chicane, haha.  Sorry about getting in your way there Grumpy, after the spin I got off the racing line...which is where you thought you could dodge me :-X  From then on it was a catch up game for me to Turbo but the closest I could get was 8 seconds.  Was a fun action packed race for all and I'm really glad that we had no network disconnects.

LLF I wanted to extend my thanks to you for a well run and action packed series.  I look forward to the next series we're all in together

Thanks guys, it was mainly due to all your help with the races themselves. It was a fun event and I wouldn't hesitate to run another one.

Sorry to all last night for bailing, it's not my normal MO but with multiple spins and having a little too many libations in me I was just getting in the way.

I forgot the final running order at home so I will update the final standings tomorrow.

Great job everyone and I hope it was as enjoyable to you all as it was to me.

Thanks again to my partner who kept the Dolts in the thick of things throughout, too bad you didn't have much of a partner.

Thanks, Leaf!!!  Goos times and gresy fub!!!

I had my best race of the series last night and I only have one person to thank for it.  Agent, my man!!!  

Agent, I hope you didn't take my comment last night wrong.  When I made a PITA remark about you being behind me it was because of me being nervous - not because of anything you did (though when I would mess up and you'd drop way back, I kept wondering why.  You belong way the FUCK in front of me and I know that).  It was making me nervous with you behind me because I didn't want to FUCK up your race.  (I think I have mentioned this before, that's what causes me such anxiety and grief.  I don't want to FUCK up y'all's races)

Anyway, Agent, I just want to thank you.  YOU are the reason I had such a good race.  

I was so nervous with you behind me that it kept me on my toes and focused.  I didn't kick back like I am want to do and smoke a fattie while I roll down the track.  I paid attention.  I pitted when I needed to (usually I say "FUCK it" and just go without pitting at all or pit every time someone nears me when I am near the pit, so I don't cause them to wreck because of my bad driving). I stayed on pace.  I stayed on track.  I did GOOS!!!  And it was all because of you, I knew I couldn't/shouldn't beat you (hence my waiting at the end until you crossed) but I damn sure didn't want to wreck you.

So, Agent, in retrospect you can be a PITA like that to me any time you want to.  It may take me out of my comfort zone but it's sure was FUCKING nice knowing I did what for me was a very, very good race.

Thanks Agent!  I owe you one my Tuna Brother.
