Just tell everyone you were testing the JICs off-road since they worked so good on track. :driving:

Hopefully you and Dave can come back down for other TGP events. I for one definitely had a lot of fun last weekend.

And I was looking forward to more Dilbert photos....

Chris, glad to hear that you're OK and the damage was minimal. And for some reason, when I read that first sentence about off-roading, George immediately popped into my mind.

I saw the car tonight...it doesn't look bad at all. In fact, I couldn't even tell at first glance (it was like, 1 am though).

However, some of the lines and gaps are a bit off. It's nothing crazy though and definitely fixable. Should be fun fixing it back up...

The more you drive, the greater the chance that you'll go off road at some point.

I've been off few enough times that I can recall them all, though. :P

That happens at Summit in Turn 8 all the time. The only way to get past cars with a lot more horses is to be on their tails through the Carousel, and then have a high gear run on them by the middle of 8.

They pretty much have to let you by, but if you're in a group that requires a point-by, there's a scary one second wait for them to realise there's no holding you back.
