Bourne and demise: Farewell Sierra Municipal.

without comments

The The Bourne Ultimatum was good. Really good. This movie wrapped up one of the best, most complete trilogies I’ve seen. This reminds me, sort of, speaking of kickass summer action movies, that I need to go catch Transformers again before it leaves theaters.

Sunday was possibly the last autocross at Sierra Municipal Airport. The border patrol is building a hanger adjacent to where we usually play so we can’t run there while the area is under construction. Furthermore, after the construction, they might have equipment occupying the same space where we run, so we might not be able to come back. Unfortunate, since I’ve heard many folks say that they thought it was the best autocross venue in the state.

None the less, the last event this past Sunday was wet and wild. My competition runs were in some light rain with the pavement damp and I rang off clean runs of 53.898, 52.047, 52.723, and 52.394, the best of which was good enough to crack into the top 10 in PAX times.

Time only runs in the next heat got a little more interesting with more rain. Rain and 615s with little tread left made for some fun; a tail happy rear end and some all wheel drifting look cool but kill time. The best of my time only runs was a 52.457. Oh well, at least I didn’t smoke my best competition time in a run that didn’t count for once.

Oh, and my new bed rocks, best piece of furniture I ever bought.
