Sunday morning, we did a Skyway run. We lined up at 10am, and Nick, Topless and I ran ahead kinda hot. Hellbender was great, but we got behind some slow traffic.
At the Gap, we turned left and headed down the hill - about the time we got to the bottom of the hill, I heard someone on the radio say; "..... all thru..." indicating the line behind us had caught up and all made it thru the Gap.

Just after that, I heard Pacemaker say, "Do I smell tires?"

Yea, 12 tires was what he could smell, about 90 seconds after we'd gone thru! I foolishly arrived at the Dragon with rears down to wear marks - by the time I got home, (and really before I even left Fontana) my rears were virtually slicks. The only way I kept up with Nick on the Skyway was that he was not running full out!

Like I kept telling new people; "If I stay on the road in the turns, the rest of you should be just fine, unless you panic and really stand on the brakes."

I would also like to inform the group that the VWs lost one car in a turn (some damage, not totalled) and the Gens lost one (some damage, Eryk said they'd probably get the car fixed in a few days). Both groups had more cars than us.
