Re: WERA at Grattan this weekend
So this was the "wife's high school reunion" you blew your (former) VFR friends off to go to?





OK, I'll assume you went there Sunday after the reunion.

Some cool pictures. That thing really loaded the suspension on landing

Dude that is a bad ass picture of me...

Here's one of me that's a little better.
http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/OrderPage.aspx?pi=0NXQ000Q000338&po=338&c=


That Matt is 17 years old and kick A** all weekend. John took those pictures... He took a ton of great pictures of alot of people. I can wait to see what he has of me

I finished both races with a bruised tail bone (long story) and got my WERA license. Everyone was just so nice and I felt right at home. I had a blast and ready for the next one... Of course, I had no problem with my lines but need to push that throttle a little more

All and all, going counter clock is not bad after all

I wish I was there. Those are pics on the WERA board that were posted of the racing this weekend. Being at COTU would've been a lot more fun than being stuck at the "spouses" table at her reunion while she reminisced...

Lemmings spook and head to the cliff. Sheep pause grazing long enough look at you, say whatever and then ignore you

Or put another way what was her lap time during the race (I assume a track day will ridden a bit slower as it is NOT a race)
