back in the saddle

after a 3 months hiatus due to health issues I am happy to say got back in the saddle this past weekend. back at the very demanding Shenandoah track at Summit point where I received a proper case of internal bruising and bleeding last time around. this time I came prepared with proper protection gear and a F*#k you attitude. happy to say I bettered my previous best with an exclamation. here is a fun Elise chase. I was surprised I could hang with him for so long.

Very fast driving. In a lot of corners it looks like you're making more corrections than I've seen in your other vids. Is that what you mean by FU attitude?

I see you got the seat belt clip. What is the black strap over your right shoulder?

Your new suspension seems all sorted out and nicely balanced.

Watching was a little painful for me. I've missed two consecutive events on that track, first due to rain all day two weeks ago, and then again this week due to bronchitis or something.

Chris, shaved 2 sec of the 3 sec I had promised you! I know where I can shave another sec. don't forget to sign up for the sept summit main event. we're competing for the fastest 135 time

Gary, was hoping to see you there. sorry you were not feeling well! I was wearing a rib protect vest. I must say I am not feeling the pain in the kidneys anymore. I think my front tires are toast. they are melted with practically no grooves to clear water. although the temps were in the low 90's my car was running a bit hot with temps hovering around 280 and brakes smoking every time I pulled in the paddock.
