Lincoln ProSolo and National Tour photos/video

Competed in my first national Solo events last weekend, the ProSolo and National Tour in Lincoln on the Nationals site. Kind of disappointed in coming in last at both events... had the times to be midpack, but kept finding cones and had some seriously bad reaction times at the Pro on a few runs. It was good experience all around, however and hopefully will do it again sometime.







ProSolo video


I also have a video from National Tour that I need to get edited and posted.

The vid looks like a clean run although it seems you were a bit behind on the slalom. Keep it up you'll do better next time! There is no such thing as failure, just opportunities to learn!

I talked to you in grid at the end of the second day of the tour. Nice looking car, and thanks for the info on the diff and shocks. I'll be checking out the pictures you took of my son in FJA. Looks like some good shots.

Yep 1st place was the White Cobb STi. That car is fast. I think they were the highest placing Subaru in STU at Nationals last year, 5th I think.

The Quaife LSD makes a huge difference... best mod you can make IMO.
