You really shouldn't give up the Miata because of one race.  There is always
a faster car out there so why worry about it.  It looked like your were
having just as much fun in the Miata.  Just not as fast.  The problem with
my class is that almost all the cars are different.  I can't really compare
myself to anyone else on a driver skill level.  I think your class is
perfect for learning how to drive better not just going fast.

I think you've figured it out. I've retired Lucy, Kirk. BS is like a spec
class. All the cars are pretty much the same. It's all about the driver. In
'99, all I could muster was 5th place at Nationals, out of 51. Not very good
results, I think you'll agree. It's just too embarassing, so I thought I'd
switch to a BMW where you don't have to know how to drive to go fast.

Peace,
Katie

Thanks for sending me another excuse to put in my book.  But it just came
down to Jim having the better more expensive car.  Oh well.  By the way when
is the  miata coming back out to play?

You would have probably been a lot faster if you ran Konis.
