Great story, but too bad you couldn't continue the race with your E500 .

Dean-

Kudos to you and your wife for not simply putting the proverbial tail between the legs and limping home, head hung low. What better way to NOT do so than by entering a RENTAL! I've always said, you're just NOT getting your full rental dollar-worth if you're not racing it! And a Jag at that, classy indeed!

Great story, us east coaster's (well, I'll use that as an excuse, more like cannot $$$ that whole event at this stage of life yet, wife would shoot me!) will live vicariously through your experiences there! Thanks!
