Yeah, s'pose. Finishing 17 minutes inside the 90-hour time limit for 1200km wouldn't qualify me, then. <sniff>.

So c'mon, Hitchy. I hear a 400 and 600 in the offing here. Then a full-blown 1200. You up for any some time next year?

(45 minutes under 13 hours 30 mins for 200k? You MUST have been close to dead, man!)
