Well it's official... I finished 2nd in TTS (NASA Time Trials) at VIR this past Sunday. Ran a personal best of 2:07.3. I win 1 free Hoosier

It's not showing class, but the top 2 guys are in TTU, and the number 4 spot is a Z06 in TTA. Dan Kroll beat me out in TTS.

My first time placing in Time Trials, and my first time running sub 2.10s at VIR. Ran a 2.09 Saturday 2nd session, then a 2.08 1st sesion Sun, then the 2.07 on Sunday afternoon.

Just 1 tire. The contingency is 2 tires for 1st place and 1 tire for 2nd. For the 1st place continency to be in effect you have to have at least 3 people signed up in your class and for the 1st and 2nd place to be in effect you have to have 5+ signed up. You also have to be running Hoosier tires of course.

Nah... I'll need to buy new tires soon (they only last 2 weekends) so that's 1 less I have to buy.
