While I'm thinking about it, here's the course map. It might look a bit familiar to some of you.

Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.

Didn't say it would look familiar to everyone.

It's as close to a copy of the last Dunnellon course as possible.

Yes I am! When you consider it exercise for course workers, then you see I'm the good guy here. I care.

Laid out on Silly Putty, unbent and stretched. Oops...forgot, that's a reference only yesterday's WINNERS will understand.

OK, car is 100% not making it this time around. Looking for a co-drive again :smack: I'm running in M2 and would like an M2/M3 car but really beggars can't be choosers. Offering cash money.

My car’s open if you want it. Might not be the most competive car for M2 but you know your way around a Miata, you should do alright. You’re not allowed to go more than 1 second faster than me though. :snicker:

Philip, do you want to FTD or not? That is the question. If yes, the you can take the Rust machine out again.

Just like last time, if you accept, the rules of engagement will follow, but first you accept blindly. Haha
