yes this is my girlfriend/fiance and that was her very first race.

she can barely drive a stick yet but we got down taking off and shifting into second. so we got her driving more aggressively through out the day and now she is hooked!

i still need to get her more comfortable with a stick and she will do better next time!

she never hit a cone though. i hit two my first run

the corner workers looked bored lol

the girlfriends always seem to be cleaner than their macho boyfriends trying to make sure we, I mean they, don't get their asses beat...

I don't see the matching Hello Kitty helmets yet! Nice pics and videos of the runs. I got a feeling she might beat your time by next year. Must give props to her for trying the auto-x out!

our classes are set up differently. im in class b.

it goes by the type of bmw you have and the specific things you have done.

a class is as low as it goes and f class is as high as it goes.

i am maxed out in b class if i do any kind of performance thing to my car i will be in c class
