Is there a list of pre-registered vehicles. I'm pretty sure I registered a few weeks back but can't remember

Thanks for the fun event FMC! I was really glad to see the sun came out and help make the event run a little smoother. The track got really fun once it got warm.

My best run of 60.7


Now who took a picture of results and can do all that fancy excel for me :D

Watch me fail to launch, fail to shift properly and fail to keep the car straight all in one run! And somehow it was my fastest.

Here's my booboo on the 1st run.

And then my decent 2nd run. No vid of my quickest (3rd run)


.
Oh and Greg, you definitely Pax'd second. 3rd raw time behind Devon and Scott in the Locost. The rain kept all the street guys at bay in Pax. I say it's just payback for the 2 dry events they got earlier in the year :twisted:

I did the exact same thing in the exact same spot on my second run. Got just a little loose going down the bank, then up the bank it got really sideways. That event was the first time in 3 years of driving that car that I've ever needed to dial out oversteer.

Here is my quickest. I found there to be a lot of oversteer too, which was great for me as I usually have understeer problems. GREAT course, it was a fun event.

Yeah well you guys (and girls) driving RWD vehicles are used to that stuff. I normally just mash the gas and point where I want to go :lol: I was definitely not expecting the rear to be that wild, and a better driver probably could have saved it (many did). Dropped the rear tire pressures 4 lbs after that run and made all the difference.

Great job by the organizers, you guys had a huge amount of pressure to overcome, and you did a fantastic job.
Here's my boo boo. Knew I was going to be off-course, so tried to take out the gate-cone so to stay on-course, problem was I missed it and took out another instead. Then proceeded to beat it to death during the rest of the run.

Had a great time this past weekend. :D

Assuming that there were only 3 runs in Fredericton, since I only see runs 1,2,3 and best, then Dan V's best time is slightly different than his first 3 runs. I really don't think it will make a difference but to be accurate.

And I expected the top 3 to be much closer at this point, but with 1 event to go, anything is possible!

If you consider the dropped event it IS close for the top 2.

Do you drop an event in the ARMS championship? Missed the AGM, don't know. But glad that it's close!

Yes that would appear to be a mistake. My run was a 62.578 and not .518.
