it was comforting seeing and hearing the other drivers out on the track and you could feel your car pushing the limits although I was on the slower end of times.

ex. Jim Stout ran some 1:42's I believe and my best lap was 2:02...

Mark was in the low 1:50's I believe.
A 2:02 sounds like a good time to me. Nothing wrong with being slower than people that have many more years experience on the track, as long as you are having fun. Also those WC Comp Coupes of Jim Stout and Ben Keating are faster than our street based Vipers, even the ACRs. The ACRs compare more closely to VRL spec Comp Coupes. For comparison, I ran 2:33 at Sebring with NARRA where Jim and Ben were running 2:13 to 2:14 lap times.
