Sharing a ride at scca solo nationals with a hot shoe

In autocross the top competitors always share their car. It gets the tires hotter and is an advantage in grip.

A fellow from louisiana is coming up to grissom, my home track, to run a CSP Miata, which sounds like an awesome car with everything done to it that you legally can.

I am going to co drive with him on July four and five. It should be fun.

I am pumped and thinking fast!

Vroooooommmm!

Oh it wasn't too bad. I just told him I had limited experience but wouldn't crunch his gears too much!

Seriously, I know he tried to get someone more experienced but everybody else had other commitments.

I have to share his costs too.
