Jefferson Report?
How about a report from Jefferson. I heared a little from Dave Cutchins but the cell connection wasn't the best. It sounded like a great turnout.

With the exception of a little rain and mini thunderstorm on saturday afternoon the weather was great. There was a HUGE turn out. It had to be over 60 cars. No major incidents and all were safe. Quite a few battles came down to the wire. The Danko crew put on some really good food for us all.
All in all it was a great weekend.

I was one of the novices.
Losts of nice folks and the weather wasn't too bad (one rain shower).
I had a great time and had fun learning the Jefferson in the opposite direction and getting into some nice drifts around the corners to track-out. I can't wait until Fall Jefferson. Hopefully by then I won't be running on DOT tires - I see some slicks in the future
It was a blast to finally drive the car the way it wants to be driven!

This was my first event @ Jefferson and I had an absolute blast. The rain wasn't the greatest but, all in all it moved through rather quickly and being in the second run group, all my runs were in the dry. The last little session of 2 runs at the end of Sunday was also a welcome additon. Unfortunately they only got me to the "close...but no cigar position", as Steve's margin of victory over me was .009 . I thought that only happened in Solo 2. Count me in for Weatherly.

Great Jefferson Event
Just a gratitude of thanks to all involved with the Jefferson Event. To the entire Danko family for the great food and especially the fantastic "BIRCH BEER." To both Matt's and all the workers who did a superb job as usual. To Nelson and Rick who as usual gave 110%. And Tim who did an outstanding job at the start line getting us all off safely. On a scale of one to 10 this event was a 12. Thanks to all and see you at Weatherly.
A big THANKS to the organizers, sponsors and workers! I had a great time.
Lots of new faces/cars. This will be an interesting year if they all come to the hills.
I stuck around until Monday morning. At about 8:45am, a guy driving one of the BSR Caprices comes through the paddock pretty fast and just about throws the car into a four wheel drift, stopping in front of the classroom building
He came into the classroom and started making coffee and putting papers on the tables. He told me he was an instructor for the security driving class which was to start at 9am. He said the students were mostly from government agencies. I figured it was a good time for me to leave
See ya at Weatherly.
