March 19-20, 2005 SE Divisional Event #1

 

Sunny and warm

Disaster strikes!!!!

I was leading after the Saturday runs even though I didn't feel like I was doing very well. And obviously on Sunday, I didn't do well at all. Jim killed me on the Sunday runs and came back to win. It's the first time he's beat me since I started driving his car. NEVER again. I couldn't get the car to turn at the far end of the course, it just wanted to push. I'm writing this weeks later and after seeing pictures of the car in a hard corner, I'm beginning to understand why. Excessive positive camber (not to mention rock hard Goodyears) contributed to the push.

Matthew had a really hard time too, we never could get the kart fast enough. Clutch and gears were never right and he was extremely disappointed. Both courses were very fast and he stayed topped out both days.
