When I put a car on its roof at Pagoda, this guy did a lot to make me feel better about it. Matt is a great guy, built this Honda with his own elbow great and determination, and this year he broke the 2 minute mark for FWD at the Duryea Hill Climb. Super cool.

Is he the first FWD to make it in under 2 minutes?  I know that they've been trying to get a FWD under two for a looong time. Congrats to Matt.

You could harass him about leaving his face shield up the whole time; clearly it's a safety concern (never mind about the bare armco, dirt banks and trees) Also he missed an apex by at least 3 inches.

I would glare at him at him and see if he cracks; note he was an animal over that crest though, so I doubt he'll notice.

I was there with the family sitting in the bleachers at turn 2 for the morning sessions. We try to go to one of the hill climbs every year.

Which honda was his? If I recall there was 3 or 4 civics running.
