Congratulations Steve Abbott!

Post by Mark DeShon »

Steve took top PAX yesterday at the Halloween autocross, as well as the Super Stock win. If I'm not mistaken (which I am fairly often) that's his first PAX win! Whether your first or not, big congrats to you, Steve! :thumbup:
Other certainly notable mentions include Byron Goodman winning a tough SK1 class, Doug Teulie showing everybody how to drive his course in Historic 2, Tim Albin showing SK2 that he knows how to handle street tires as well as Hoosiers, and Bob Endicott taking STR on his final run! "Go Bob, Go!" ;)

Well done Steve, although I'm not surprised. You really know how to finesse a C5 corvette

I really don't see how he does it, it's like all he does is drive C5 Corvettes or something. That's why I don't let him drive my car, it might mess up his rythym. ;)
CONGRATS STEVE!!!!!!! Well done. :thumbup:

Geesh!! NOW how much is it gonna cost to get you to ride with me a couple of runs. I think your PAX win just priced me out of the market. Oh well, I guess I can at least say "I knew you when".

Congratulations! You are blindingly FAST dude. ;)

Would be interested in how many national and regional champions were in the group behind you. I don't think luck plays a part in that collection of drivers. Has to be skill.
