That's awesome. So I'm guessing Scion e-mailed and told you that you won the contest? I didn't hear anything, so I guess I didn't win, haha.

The VT game was pretty good though, so I'm not too upset I missed this :D

no justin swapped spots with me for vip so i could run. cuz i didnt get picked and he did. he was doing the time attack so it wasnt vital that he get to run. he was nice enuf to swap spots with me.

and i bleve that was the SRT-4 that got first. apparently it came in 6th over all in sum kidna track across america thing where u have to race on tracks then be able to drive your same RACE SETUP to the next course and track the car. basically nothing can change between driving and racing. and its nationwide.

it was an SRT-4 well set-up. 400plus whp, and good driver. There was a CRX running as well but didnt make the cut to run the actual time attack. Because of time constraints they actually had to take the fastest cars only to run.

hey guys here is somthing you may enjoy... although our tC wasnt able to make NJ we still had a blast up there . hmmmmm that pit radio guy looks familiar....

here is the 1st of 2 videos I have, this one was on Saturday in the 2nd practice session on my street tires. I was at the start of the 2nd line. I was doing my darndest to keep up with some fast cars including an Evo with good power, s2000, porsche gt3, STI, M3, G35 twin Turbo. Keep note as I let the G35 and M3 pass, i wasnt sure if i was holding them up or not so I waved them by on the strait and let off. Also keep note of the G35, in the next video i post It will be me on my race tires...
enjoy

hey justin
congrats on your finish at NJ. too bad your tC wasn't ready and too bad we didn't get to see chris rado drive.

btw this is toan with redline. i was working with ross miller that weekend and in charge of the timing. what a great event. i would have never imagined a formula race, time attack, car show and scion event in one.
