Be braver, lol. Also, FWIW, the rx8's in rolex ran 20B's, so that should class them as an OEM approved swap, lol.

If she passes you, you'd have to marry her to get the driving lessons free.

2021 Finger Lakes Champ Tour:

Meanwhile, Amy didn't get to do the Test N Tune and arrived on site Saturday not having had the chance to walk course yet, so we quickly did some course walks and got the RX-8 ready. She killed it and was quickly fighting for trophies once she was up to speed. Only half a second or so outside the trophies with no real chance to warm up and try car setup things.

Here's Amy's fastest Saturday run:

On Sunday Amy was much more quickly up to speed but had to clean up a cone after her first run but she recovered well and was only thousandths behind the podium on day two!

Here's Amy's fastest Sunday run:

You go, Amy!

Amy & I drove the RX-8, tons of fun and we got to ride with each other which was fantastic. Great learning experience. Sorry about the audio, the microphone fell out of its mounting clip and was buzzing around inside the trunk. Amy finished 2nd in STX and in the top quarter of PAX too! I ended up first in PAX which was nice because we were on the slower Nankangs.

Amy, see if this makes any sense - I don't want to offend, sincerely - but watching those two vids back-to-back, it occurs to me that while you drive the car, Doc wrangles it a bit more.

Get nasty and push that son-of-a-bitch...

Amy is working on the aggression and trusting the car

I'm telling you, Kenny, if she starts getting by you and likes it, you might be in trouble.

A really fun day of autocross on Sunday with Philly SCCA. We were at Ripken stadium in Aberdeen, MD for the first time in a long time for Philly. The site has some terrain features that make it difficult to make a super technical course, but we got a solid 45 second course with plenty of sweeping corners. Fun and simple and safe! Both cars were on the Nankang CR-1s again doing more testing/conserving tires for nationals... They seemed to work pretty well, grip is up to about what I'd expect from the Yokohama A052s finally after some minor car changes.

Amy ran the RX-8 with Eric Simmons and they took home first and second in STX.

Amy's second fastest run thanks to some GoPro issues:

Simmons' fastest run:

Audio is wind noise because the GoPro external microphone adapter is stupid. Ran a 1:33.6 last night at NJMP Thunderbolt during TNiA. Running Nankang CR-1s instead of Yoko A052s, but no setup changes from autocross. Stock brake pads and all!
