Thanks Mini-Fit and FitFlowJoe! This was my 1st experience in a run-off. It was a great challenge. It rained the night before so the course was a little wet. That definately slowed the times down and changed the course "feel." The Dunlops handled the wet conditions great!

Managed to walk the course 3 times--which was very helpful. Also managed to draw a good diagram of the course. This helped me study it as I waited for my runs.

I was really fortunate that the 1st run went so well. I tried to make adjustments in the following 2 runs but couldn't quite beat the 1st run time.

I've run the Dunlops (race only) for 3 events now. Not sure how much more events they have--maybe one more season. (?) We'll see about those Bridgestones. They only have 195/50/15 and 205/50/15 sizes. Not sure how they'll work w/ the Fit. Not sure if 205s will rub. But I do like the Dunlops!

Planning (God willing) to get a c-pillar bar soon...then, that's it for the mods for a while.

Thanks again Mini-Fit for all your instruction and 08FitSport (Tom) for really pushing me to drive better just to keep up. Tom and I will continue to work @ getting better. Hopefully, there will be other Fits joining us too.

Here's the videos from the run-offs:
