ENJOY !!

This is from the SVTOA event earlier this year.

If anyone doubts that tires make a difference...

I am running Hoosier Grand Am Cup tires.

Cobras don't like the sharp corners...

One correction. The event took place in March. SCCA PDX was in May. Got my dates screwed up...[shhh]

Nice video. Looks like a fun course. Especially the little embankment/cement turn.

Werd on the tire tip. While at the svtoa event in michigan another focus owner had Hankook Ventis r-compound tires (I believe) and I couldn't keep up with him at all on street tires.

And nothing like getting the pass signal from a Cobra.

Not really.

One of the things that we stressed in the driver meeting is that on this course the smaller lower HP cars have an advantage because it is so tight.

So, if they want to play "connect the dots" on the straights, that's fine, but don't be shocked if there is a train of foci behind you and one in your back seat.

Thanks to all for the kind words.
