The results and standings have been updated. Kudos to Rob, Sheryl and all who made it another great event -- special thanks to whoever kept the rain away! Thanks also to bigbrakeparts.net for joining the Club's sponsors -- check them out for brake pads, rotors and accessories.

Remember to check out the site for the great selection of Renegade events that are coming up between now and the Annual Banquet in November -- starting this Saturday with a Pool Party/BBQ at the Niemans.

Thanks to all for making another great event!

And special thanks for putting car numbers in the results, it's now easier to tell who is who :-)

Thank all people setting up a great event!
I like the course, lots of opportunities to practice "brake hard, turn early" motto. alien
Second that showing car number in result is a great idea. bounce

Sorry about that I will correct that.

I hated the course in the morning, partly because I was breaking in a new set of gumballs, and partly because it was so very technical. But I like a challenge. I changed my driving style a bit in the afternoon and the course rocked.

I'm glad people finally started figuring ou that you had to be early or you just died ou there. I had complaints on the last loop course that it was too open and not a usual miata course. I decided that I would go back to a technical one. Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

I happen to think this is the best of both worlds... a full loop which isnt as confusing for the n00bs (me) and still technical and fun.

I liked it!!! bounce
Any consensus on which side of the slalom to run??
I started to the right but there was some fervent reasoning from the high horsepower crowd for starting on the left... Suspect

I have only 415 hp to tap, and went to the right. Maybe a faster entrance to the left but the exit looked very ugly.

Thanks for a fun time at my first Renegade Miata event! Setup seemed very organized and timely, and everyone I met was very friendly.

The course was very challenging for me. I never managed to look ahead far enough, and never really put together a run I was happy with, but it was fun and exciting!

Looking forward to doing some more events with the club soon!

Oh yeah, Mussel Karr, I saw your green Porsche hit a cone which flipped through the air and landed in the box safely at corner 4. The first time I've ever seen that....awesome! afraid

That had to be the last AM or last PM run. I swore I hit a cone on one run but it was clean, musta been the one.

I tried both Left and Right on the slalom... it really made no noticeable difference to me, either i was fast in and braking hard at the exit, or slower in and straight shot out to the next gate... driver preference i guess

I loved the course. It felt open and flowing, but I'm not experienced enough to know just how technical it was. Maybe I just enjoy not getting lost.

Thanks again to everyone who works so hard at these every time. I'll have some selected pix on Flickr soon, and all 350+ of the uncorrected shots on another site in a day or so.

Thanks again for a great event. We spoke to many of you, but had to pack up early due to fear of rain.

If we didn't have a chance to chat please contact us via email/phone/AIM.

Thanks,

-Gary
