My mistake at the last turn and in the pits cost me a chance at a legitimate
win.

First 20 was great fun though.

Congratulations to Brian for an excellent race and a podium position.

I thought I was going to make it all the way through without a coughing fit.
Sorry for not announcing but communication was difficult. I would have
probably packed it in early on except the bionic Ginger (close in points)
was still going strong in keyboard mode!! You deserved the win Dave, we both
made an error in the final turn but other than that you were holding me off
well at the end. Grats :))

I'm really beginning to wonder if the damned thing isn't overheating.  I've
never had this issue before, though I did recently go to this new Antec
Case.  But the thing moves a TON of air using 120mm fans.

I'm going to turn off fastwrites and tone the AGP down to 4x and see what
happens this weekend.
