Drove like sh!t both days. Slow on day one and coned every run on day two. As a result I was second to last in my class (ASP). Confident that if I had removed my head from my a$$ I could have come close to the final trophy position.

The ASP Evo's are in a league of their own (at least when they are running). In all reality with the times they are running compared to the rest of us, they should be bumped up to SSP. Looking at the times of the Evo's vs. the SSP cars, the Evo's would have been right at the top of SSP (this has been the case for the last few years).

Everybody has days like that. Can't drive for nothing. Never know until you get behind wheel. Those days you wish you would have just stayed on the porch. Well, except for the top tier. It's just another day at the track for them.

Didn't go so well for me, but the 350z crew - particularly Jeff Stuart - did outstanding!

I overestimated my ability to learn a new tire AT nationals. I just couldn't keep the RE71's on the edge consistently.

Ended up 12 of 36. 0.16 seconds out of the trophies.

I hope to have the tires figured out by state.
