Going to this event was like taking a time warp 40 years backwards to
when sportscars were being produced.
I really enjoyed how a Yenko Stinger was admired and accepted as a sports
car and a threat on the hill.It was neat standing at the score board and
listening to the people talk about the Stinger and how it was burning up the hill.
Driving through a wooden tunnel as the locals call was a little
intimidating.I thought I finally had everything under control then I hit a hay bale.I
dont know if anybody else has ever hit a hay bale at 60 miles an hour but it
makes a big mess and feels like you hit a deer it also adds a little patina to
your car(or Marks car).I was a little shook up so I told Mark to take the rest
of his runs whille I calmed down. I waited till the end of the last group to
take my final runs.On my second run I managed to go 2 seconds faster than the
morning session.I was happy.
It showed me that when you put a Stinger up against the cars it was
originaly intended to run with it is a very competitive car.
