Kids didn’t want to give an old man a point by. Both ended up in the grass. Spotters and officials moved me up to advance after this run

Is it just me or was that white car picking some odd lines around the track?

The white car was a 4door VW. He had ALOT of hp in there. No idea what motor? Almost made me want to check on it in the paddock. But he was crap in the corners and I think was just trying to brute force his way around

Both type R are heavily modified. I don’t know anything about Honda’s. Lots of shiny parts in the engine bays. And I’m sure tunes bolt on stuff They were cool to chat with after the session and actually apologized for holding me up. Actually FB friends now.

I think they just were sliding around not wanting a 50 year old to pass them thinking their type Rs were like Porsche

Either way good work. Clean driving, enjoyed watching you pass them.

looked like you were on a Sunday drive to the grocery store held up behind that CTR?

Summit Point is a very nice facility so close to DC. There a couple years ago and did the Circuit. Almost hit a deer on the front straight coming into turn 1, 150+. Can't believe that they don't remove that herd of deer

Hahaha that was great. I think they saw the Supra in their mirrors and thought they could hang with you.

I was glad to see the Passat finally yielded and knew he was unmatched.

Nice driving - BTW
