Well done, the Jefferson is a great event. I expect a large turn out for
many events this year. Our HRG event in June at Lime Rock filled up a month
ago, we had to turn away cars. VSCCA had a vintage racing school two weeks
ago with 27 cars entered, about twice the normal turn out.

Get out, drive hard, have fun

I had a great weekend, it was the first time we've been out since MidOhio
last year!

I've sorted a lot of things (racecar AND driver related) since my last time
at Summit Point; I set a new personal best lap by 4.5 seconds- my GT6
really felt good.  I pulled off early during my Saturday PM race with what
I suspect is a rear brake issue, haven't looked into it yet.  Looking
forward to PittRace!

I feel bad for the Group 4/ Small bore guys; not a single full session all
weekend without a black flag all....including the enduro!
