oh well, 1 day i might run this TA car. just dont know when.

I miss Doc's Thursday Night F1's with club motors. Guys that spanked my in TC, I could normally be within a lap or 2 because it boiled down to driving and not as much set up.

While I like the USVTA, I wish I had heard about his TT01 class in Frederick earlier, considering a new TT01R can be had for $70
