Sue and I ventured back up to Road America at the end of September to get back in to a Skip Barber car after the Summer of Dirt. It was a great time. I was 4th fastest on the time sheet after practice on Friday thanks to big tows from Marc Abernathy and John Potter down the front straight. Had a bad start in the Saturday race and ended up 7th, Sunday had a good race and ended up fifth has a shot at the podium with a last gasp draft coming up the hill on Hasha Senn and John Griest, but Harsha lifted coming out of the final turn which forced me to as well and my bid ended up .1 sec short. AHH to be 30 lbs lighter ! The weekend was beautiful weather wise and it was great to renew acquaintances. The Panzer boys are all grown up ! Nice guys, Chase came away from the weekend with a Black eye that was Jag induced. The only other causualty was Hasha's forehead burn which he says is from getting to close to the exhaust header, I think it was from a Hookers cigarette. Next up the Grand Am Test in Daytona !
Here is a little video of the Skippy action
