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.


Raffaela, Luiz Antonio, Ana Elena, Eduardo, Fernanda, Nicolas.

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).

Porsche Museum

It has been settled. I am going to the New Porsche Museum on Sunday, July 12! I went there last year, but it was the old museum with only 20 cars and a small shop. Thank you Under Armour for sending me to Germany for so many photo shoots! Pics and video to come.

2009 Autocross #2

I did very well this past autocross:

17 of 38.

3.990 sec. off the pace (2008 Cayman S, heavily modified).

Very pleased.

Here is a VIDEO of one of my runs (not the best as you can see)

Monaco III

I want one, Tag Heuer, Monaco III.

Check out the cool commercial for this. I am pretty sure the result is spot on.

2009 - CHS PCA AutoX #2 - Dorsey MARC Station

Had a great day yesterday at the autocross! I think I had some competitive times. I was definitely running like a madman (in my own mind). The car felt great... I think I'll need to get some new shocks... and one day invest in wheels and tires.

I'll post times as soon as they are posted.
