I am in the Greensboro area and just picked up a 2018 1LE 2 weeks ago. I will be checking the Zmax site for registration for the March event. Hope to see you guys there and I will listen to everything you can teach me mjk3888.

Definitely! PM me too so I can help you get signed up and meet up with you as well. I'm sure this thread will be long forgotten by then.

I only had 2 runs on Day 1 because I had to leave early for a wedding, but I'm not sure I would have topped his time. Zach where are your PDR videos of your laps?

A few excuses for myself. I ran group 1 and they ran group 4 meaning they got a warmer track on day 1,
and day 2 Zach rode along with me on my first lap to get more seat time on the course. Also they clearly
were benefiting from the use of co driving and using tire blankets. So I think its fair to assume
THEY CHEATED AND I WON!!!!!

Notice they were both feeling the pressure and spun on their final runs. John DNF'd but the one in the video
is Zach's final lap when he got some bad advice from a certain Rookie Driver with an SS 1LE who shall remain
nameless who may or may not have told him to go full throttle heading down to the final wiggle. LOL!

Pics in order

Day 1 Myself vs. Zach
Day 2 Myself vs. Zach

I still beat you with my average over both days, regardless of the relevance/irrelevance of your excuses!!! And yes your bad advice did contribute to my big spin haha but that was more me just going balls to the wall on the last run as a "Screw It! Let's see how hard I can push it" run lol

Oh I have plenty of these!!!

1. I ran group 1 colder on both days.
2. You guys set up the courses and got to drive them slowly the night before.
3. You guys had much more heat in the tires. (Co driver and Tire blankets)
4. You guys used PTM Race mode all day. I ran my fastest laps with all assists off
5. You guys coned and spun all over the place I didn't touch a single one all week.
6. I had to be at a wedding on Saturday so I had to leave without getting all my runs in.
7. I had 2 ride along runs on Day2 including yourself on lap 1 and you guys always had an empty car.

Shall I continue? HAHAHAHA!!!

All that and I still beat you on day 2 and John only eeked me out by 2 tenths. I'm pretty sure the extra heat in the tires was worth that alone. Not to mention he used Race mode PTM after chastising me for using it the first half of this season. LOL!!!
