With cold asphalt and cold tires, 43 bold and brave individuals came out to battle both the limits of their cars and themselves. By noon, we had things heated up! Get the results below!

| Hey Drew, looks like 2009 pax info was used... But it shouldn't affect top 3 to 5 if any at all. Thanks for a well flowing event. I was home by 6:30 and that was a 45 min stop to eat. That fresh sealed asphalt was really smooth! |

Yep, we have to update our software, and that includes updating our license.
Glad that you had fun, thanks for coming out! |

Great job Drew! I got off work at 2:15 and thought about coming by to visit but I was just too tired so I went home and crashed. Hopefully, I will be able to make it by one of the events. I am glad that Frank (above) had a good time too. Maybe he will come back for more.

Phil, I've been to every event put on by the midsouth since 7/09 except for the november event that was the same weekend as the ARSCCA (home region) event. Last year was in the silver CTS-V. "STU" car.
I'll definitely be back again. |

| Sorry I missed it. Congratulations to Frank and Chris for high PAX finish in a a new ride. And congratulations to Phil who couldn't make it because of a JOB! Red Rocket is sporting new aluminum rear lower control arms, a door skin on passenger side held on by quick release fastners and new lower weight rear taillight assembly. Corner weights to be balanced this week then off to alignment shop. Should be ready for March 28. Get that parking lot cleaned up. |

Yes, they were ... I'm going to have to import them from handwritten to an excel sheet sometime this week. No one exceeded the 100db limit, but there were some close ones:
SM 3 99.3
ST 173 92.6
BSP 15 98.6 |

| Great. I look forward to comparing our local readings to what was taken at Lincoln. I believe the Lincoln readings were influenced by another car on track in parallel. I would rather not mess with exhaust if I don't have to since that would likely require a new dyno tune. |

Yeah, Frank & Chris had some really nice runs in that vette. Very smooooooooth! Every time I tried to push the MR2 to try & catch their times, I would hit cones. Once I get used to the much needed extra grip my new wheels & tires give me I might get a little closer.
But, big thanks Frank for letting me use your tire pressure gauge. I left mine in the paddock area. That really helped my times being able to drop & regulate my tire pressures, thank again!
I am looking forward to the next AX at Jim Keras on 3-28-10!
