Don,
Having recently taken the McKamey Phase I class and having Ron as an
instructor, I might suggest that the times you saw were not just car
related... he pretty much smoked no matter what car he was driving!!! If
anyone ever gets a chance to ride with him, I would jump on it. I learned
more with him driving my car six or seven times than I did the twenty+ runs
I drove that day!

Subject: Re: Type R's in DS WAS: Type R: G Stock in 2000?
I know this is late back to the list, but after watching a Type R this
weekend at the NorPac Divisional in Boise, Idaho, I am thoroughly
impressed. Not only did it have the fastest Pax time by 1.8 seconds,
the next car in the list was a GSL driver. overall they were 2 seconds
ahead. The car was incredibly fast. BTW the drivers were Ron Bauer and
Annie Gill.
Here are the top times for reference:
Ron Bauer PAX 74.292
Annie Gill 76.048
Brandon Young BSP 76.852
I'd say they were flying. Look at at Nationals for these cars!
