Well, they’ve been better. I got laid off at the end of September. OTOH, last week the SCCA Runoffs (their national championships for club racing) came to Laguna Seca and I was there for the entire week as an assistant chief on the Flagging & Communications crew. I got to meet a lot of people who love racing as much as I do, and I sure hope I can do it again someday!

Oh, and there were some good races, though not all of them were decided on track. For one example, Spec Miata was subject to a protest; the tenth-place qualifier filed a protest after they had finished qualifying against all nine cars that qualified ahead of him. Eight of them were found to be out of compliance, so the championship ended up going to the seventh-place finisher on track. This is a Runoffs record.

I’m really hoping I can make the ‘16 Runoffs at Mid-Ohio (next year’s event is at Daytona), but I hear tell they might come back to the West Coast for 2017.

Oh, and Mrs. Tweeze and the furbabies are all doing quite well. I can understand though, now that I’ve had a few days at home, how they can drive Mrs. Tweeze crazy. They’re starting to make ME a little crazy!
