The event started with Mike calling me as he was leaving for the race to say my oil disposal container with nearly 7 quarts of oil in it from the last oil change of the vette was leaking all over the garage. The actual race however was fun… I am getting rather good at maintaining control of the car through slides, guess I just need to learn to drive better so I slide less and get better times.  New tires probably wouldn’t hurt either. What wasn’t fun is that I put my phone in my glove box so it wouldn’t fly around in the car. Well, at some point when I was breaking hard it managed to fly through a little gap in the back of the glove box. So it is now somewhere buried in the car; I don’t know where, I can only hear it. If you try to call me my car will ring and I will not answer (obviously), but maybe the car will? Have a couple pictures from the event, but they are on my phone, which is in the car… literally.

March 22nd marked my first experience participating in a sanctioned motosport event. Conveniently that day was the start of the season for the 2009 solo series. For each event a different course is laid out with cones. Cars are grouped into classes and compete for the best time. I didn’t exactly place well but that is to be expected with my first event. Regardless it is great to just get out there and have fun without police sirens wailing behind you.
