Dunno about the Jig but I know tomorrow night won't be good for me as the truck tracks change at 6:45pm or 8:45pm(not sure which since the time change) but I'm gonna run the first Pocono of the week.   Whatever though, if I miss it I miss it, it won't be the last one we do :aok

Just did a 107 clean laps at Lanier and got a lousy .06+ SR, sitting at D 3.99.

Same; but my PC has been down for a couple days.  Should be back up tonight.

Lousy luck over the weekend... taken out of both races I entered (Skip @ Voort and Cup @ Seca) in the first turn...

The Voort wreck was a fluke but I am beginning to understand why people start from the grid in rookie races... its maddening to watch the Turn 1 heroes.  Guess that means Im getting better; even if my SR still falls well short of 4.00...

Practiced at Voort a lot too; pretty pissed about it.  3rd on pole and no way I was going to try and make up for a 2+ minute tow...

Also be aware that incs collected before and after the race do not show on the race report ... But still counts against you.

Hey guys, just to give you a heads up on a cool little app I found over the weekend for those of you that race IRL or attend races.  If your track uses the MyLaps software along with the transponders in the car to record times and positions you can download a cool little app on your phone called Race Monitor.  All you need is the track's RMonitor Address and Port # and it will give you all sorts of info.  You can sort by position or lap time, or class depending on how the track has it set up.  It will give you previous lap time and speed and best lap time and speed.

I was working in the tower at SoBo last Saturday and the MyLaps rep was in there talking about it so I went to my little android market, bought it for $5 and bam I was looking at everything they were.  Pretty neat little app, I just had to search for their wireless signal which wasn't hard at all.

I'll have to check it out, thanks.

Currently have "Track Master" on my 'Droid.  More of a GPS/lap timing device.  Nowhere near as accurate as the proper versions but kinda neat to have on a phone.
