URGENT
The fuel pump just gave out on my car, it seems, and I can't get it fixed tonight. I'll be borrowing a work van to get down tomorrow since I'm running in MF too, but if anyone has a SA car that I could borrow tomorrow, I would be eternally grateful. Please message me or call 603-455-8426
Thanks again to everyone who offered their SA-legal car for me to borrow - and to Paul Mirkhani for letting me use his RS all day, you're a lifesaver.
Another thanks to David Dennis for letting me play in M2 with his sweet Neon (Note to self, if I ever decide to move to prepared or mod, get steering quickener...)
Very interesting conditions today, but fun nonetheless and it was a pleasure to be at the event as always. See you all soon!

Excellent photos, thanks for sharing! I wasn't expecting pictures to be uploaded so soon. I have to say I like the major increase in photo / video from recent events!

I just wanted to say thanks to Scott, Kathy, and Chris, even though I covered 2 of the 3 with mud... Oops. The conditions were tough to deal with, and to run 70 cars as smooth as it was is overwhelming, but not for NER. I'm looking forward to Rochester.
I will work on the times sometime tomorrow night, so look for them on Tuesday.

Duh! That was easy: I wasn't racing, got home early. Still have to power-wash the car, though. ;-) Excellent photos, thanks for sharing! I wasn't expecting pictures to be uploaded so soon. I have to say I like the major increase in photo / video from recent events!

I'm not washing my car until later in the week. Subies look better covered in mud haha. Mine is currently parked next to my boss's squeaky clean car haha.

Anytime Jacob.. It was fun driving with you! I'd also like to thank Warren for co-driving and giving me pointers all day... which was going well until the Very end! And not to forget thanks to Jimmy for pulling me out of the mud!

My car is sitting in my office's parking lot in Cambridge all covered in mud, too.  The pleasure of racing your daily driver. Supposed to rain tomorrow, that should take care of some of it. Tim.

Haha...key word being "some." I think I have a good inch of mud caked in the wheel wells and undercarriage. Vehicle dynamics are vastly different with all that weight. Also discovered that its a good idea to remove the mud from INSIDE the wheels lol. I felt like I was driving in a horribly unbalanced clothes dryer set to high spin while driving home.

For those people going south from NED, there is a Heffner's with a self car wash in Plaistow, NH on 125. I have been stopping there on the way home to get the mud off of my car and to sweep out the mud inside my trailer. I used almost a full roll of quarters last night to get all the mud out from the wheel wells and inside the wheels. I still missed a few spots, oh well.

Yeah, a brush for cleaning out the wheels is on my list to bring for the next race. I saw people at the race using ice scrapers and one using his radio antenna (yes, I saw that) to clean their wheels. Tim.

I'd like to take the opportunity to apologize to all the course workers for stuffing the Miata in the mud...twice. I know it sucks to have to stand around while people with proper vehicles drag me out. At least it wasn't sub-freezing at this event.
