Oregon Region Rational, May 18-19

[kbsmith1]

in attendance were myself (Kevin Smith), John Rissberger, Tim Jorgensen, and Dylan Olsen. Unfortunately, Dylan was having lean-out issues with
the carb at top-end during qual. We all pitted pretty close together, and
it was a wonderful set of competitors.

Weather during qual was wonderful, sunny and 66 degrees.

Qual:

Kevin Smith 1:16.7 (new track record)
Dylan Olsen 1:19.xx (only got like 1-2 laps)
John Rissberger 1:21.xx
Tim Jorgensen 1:23.xx

I was out on A6 tires and did just 5 or so laps to get a fast time. A6s were
really nice the first several laps. John was out basically breaking in his freshened motor, and Tim was having some brake issues with shimmy under
hard braking.

Unfortunately, for the race Dylan was unable to get car working, and wasn't
able to start the race.

Race:
Kevin Smith 1:18.1 (new track record)
John Rissberger 1:22.3
Tim Jorgensen 1:24.2
Dylan Olsen DNS

This was all at Portland, and we were running without the chicane. My very best top-speed (according to data logger) was 150.1. Really flying.

Hopefully this keeps the AS participation numbers moving up briskly.

thanks Kevin ..

nice job on the win and record.
