returned for some more in car instruction, then put<br />

down her best times in her 2005 Boxster PDK in Class<br />

P1, with a best time of 81.222.<br />

Ed Mayo struggled to stay on course and avoid cones<br />

all day, but his adjusted best time still put him first in<br />

Class P4 over Julia Underwood, sharing the beautiful<br />

silver long-hood 911S. Ed got a 72.350 and Julia turned<br />

a 79.640.<br />

That’s only five drivers. The other two? Mark and<br />

Sigrid are still chasing a few gremlins from their 914<br />

but also getting some AX seat time in the family BMW<br />

M3 track car, running street tires in Class STU before<br />

the annual BMWCCA Oktoberfest AX in New Orleans<br />

coming up. Sigrid is already getting close to Mark’s<br />

time of 66.639 with her best run at 67.980.<br />
