Marcus showed and had some fun.

Dan got first in his class, but it got bumped to another class where he ended up just out of the trophies.

I thought I was beaten, but started to remember how to drive an autocross and somehow managed first in my class. I really didn't think I had.

This was a big reminder that power needs to be toned down for autocross. Like bringing a gun to a knife fight: you kill everything instead of just slicin' it up - or somethin' like that!

83 cars made it. Good event, some really good driving: Mazda RX-8, Formula SAE car, SRT-4 are just a few cars that had things sorted out and some awesome drivers!
