Well, the cup is over.

MVS was really kind to me, with a double win and a the only fast lap I've posted.  I wish I'd posted this up sooner, but I got busy with finals and the GT400 testing.  I did beat out Bimmer for the title of "Captain America."  I did not, however, make a good season over all.  A few incidents took me out of any meaningful contention for the title by halfway through the season.  TTR had a good showing, but could have been much better.

I'm a bit of an outlier on the setup.  Spiny observed elsewhere that there seemed to be two setup camps, those with soft springs and those with stiff.  I was running a stiff rear and a very soft front, somewhere in the range of 250/450 by the end of the season.  That, a neutral toe, and 30 PSI tires allowed me to put down the power well and have a pretty strong top speed.  I'll post my full setup when I get back to Tallahassee (I'm in Chattanooga right now visiting the family), but it was a good inaugural season.  I look forward to running other series in the future.
