I should be making this one unless something pops up again. Been just dying to go autoxing or track since the last track day we had. This time I won't be running on m+s tires, so no more excuses for sorry lap times :rolleyes:

But I feel lucky now, not to be in town last week since everyones cars got smashed by hail.

Oh yea is anyone going to the Drift comp at springs on the 27th? if so, we should go together.

I'll be there if my insurance doesn't decide to total my car because of the hail :(
Anyone want to buy an engine and suspension with a free car ? :)

Ohh, looks like I will be able to make this one. I will register tomorrow. CS class is what I am in I believe (from what the Car Classification Worksheet said). Finally my first auto-x.

it's free to watch. you just have to sign a release on your way in sayin if fraser gets too sideways and runs you over that it is ok with you.

They have an alternate date at the end of the summer in case that it rains one date.

unless the rain is torrential, or lightning all day, either of which is unlikely, the should proceed as schelduled.

Yep, I'm pretty sure they will run it in light/normal rain.

I'm hoping for rain... :devillook It will give me a chance in AR on street tires...

Go to sportsshooters.com and search for Cliff Lawson. He's usually got a few albums up of different events.

Results,

Looks like Reiger got Fraser by 2 tenths.... :eyecrazy: I swear, you guys are always back and forth within a half second...

Kyle,

You looked really good out there for your 1st event. I was working on corner 4 and you looked really smooth thru most of the course. :buttrock

Anyone else having a hard time playing this?

I can't get it to play, but I just changed to Win. XP, so some programs are a little out of wack.

Fraser
06-28-2004, 02:37 PM
Do I need a special codec or something to play that? I can't get it to play...


F yeah- it better rain! I'll make those cornerworkers hate life.


You're right, mission accomplished!

Yep, Mike barely got me once again- we're absolutely neck and neck in the points right now!

Kyle, I agree with Spencer- definitely impressive for yer first time out, 61.xxx is hella fast on that course! I was at the VERY BACK of the pack for my first few events.
