Back to South Bend
So, we packed up around 2:30pm and headed for South Bend. Only about a 4 hour drive, so we took our time. The first part of the drive was on a pleasant 2-lane country road, and we were following some One Lappers in a Corvette and a GMC Cyclone. Did I mention that we came across a Super Soaker this week? (thanks, Michelle!) At one point, we got stopped out in the middle of nowhere by a looooong freight train. When we stopped behind the two cars we were following, Jeff hopped out and "ambushed" them. It was hilarioius! Sorry, I didn't think to take any photos. We've done "drive by shootings" of a couple other cars on the interstate, but that's not as fun. Oh, we got another Corvette driver as we were passing them rolling into a toll booth. His codriver (spouse?) cracked up, but I couldn't quite tell if he was too happy about it. Hope we didn't ruffle any feathers, we were just having fun!
Anyway, got back to South Bend, checked into the hotel, took a nap, went out for some barbecue... and now here I am. Jeff's out doing what he does best (well, okay, he's proven to be pretty good at driving the Sentra these past few days!), drinking and being sociable and I'm here doing what I do best... being antisocial and hacking on a computer.
The afternoon results have been posted, and with the exception of Amanda smoothly and swiftly leading the pack by about 6 seconds for first place, the rest of the class finished in exactly the tight group that I'd expected. Jeff placed 2nd behind Amanda. With the class points being what they are, that locks Amanda into first place. We should be solidly in 2nd place, all we have to do is finish the dry skidpad no less than 5th in class. That should be doable.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: Sorry... I got nothin'. Maybe Jeff will pick up something at the bar?
