Stowe

This is a home video. I am sharing my vacation with my friends and family. The music is MODEST MOUSE, from their album GOD NEWS FOR PEOPLE WHO LOVE BAD NEWS. This video is not intended to sell a product or anything like that, I just felt the music reflected my feelings during vacation.

I just spent 1+ hours re-threading 1/4 of my steering wheel. NOT FUN. Fortunately I a feeling a ton of self satisfaction. Okay, only 1/4 left to go... not today.

Michael Schumacher is back!

It's going to be a fun 2nd half of the F1 season... Michael Schumacher is back!

Felipe Massa

I sent Massa a get well wish, via his fan site and got a response:

Dear friends,


On behalf of Felipe we want to thank you all for the numerous messages of
support we received from all over the world over the last days. To feel your
support in this difficult moment gives us lots of strength.


We thank you from the deepest of our hearts.

Autocross #3

Autocross #3 was a ton of fun. I didn't particularly drive that well.

Run 1 I was going through a 5 cone slalom and at cone 4 I was running way too fast... slide completely sideways... stalled the car... hurt my ego and to top it off DNF-ed (Did not Finish) because I went off corse... not at the slalom, but through a gate I was supposed to go through once, I felt the need to do it twice. UGH!

The venue was fantastic! MD State Police Training Center, Sykesville, MD

The rest of the runs slowly got better, but I don't really feel like I had too much control the entire day. I guess there is a lot to be said about getting rest. I have been in 4 time zone over the past 7 days (German time, Irish time, Central time, Eastern). I don't know how the F1 drivers do it.

Porsche Patter

I am now famous, at least in the Chesapeake Region PCA members. I made it in to the regions monthly magazine PORSCHE PATTER, that's pretty funny to me. Page 22, middle pic. Silver 911. They did not give me credit, they may not know my name... but they will! Hahaha.

I am going to Autocross#3 today... wish me luck.

Autocross #2 Results

I came in 2nd in my class and 17th overall. Not bad... coming second to the PCA President (he better be good).
