You call what you do "driving"?

Entry list has been submitted. Sorry, airport doesn't allow additions. If you had wanted to sign up, please plan to make the next event on March 28 (unless you've not done 3 events, in which case plan for Apr 12).

Brain.

Was that Brian?

Missed the 'i' before a accept after S1.

These people need for you to step up and hand them their ass.

They are "missing the point" about "fun".

In the unlikely event you know what a GT3 Porsche can do the big battle will be for 2nd.

If he shows up with the S2K the result will be similar.

S1 warning.

Ken is that good.

Was surprised to see you registered in an MR2. Weren't you in a BRZ last time you were out?

Probably the chumpcar. Maybe I'll bring the m3 out next and then maybe the track car. BRZ is back to crappy oem tires waiting for its new trans and other warranty repairs before I sell it.

New trans? Warranty repairs? WTF? I know someone who's selling a brand new set of take-off BRZ tires if you need 'em.

You're right, it was the Chumpcar last time.

It has a 6 gear whine so it gets a new trans. Also needed a new battery, power window switch and something else. Shockingly it doesn't need another coil pack.... Yet.

Yikes ! Hopefully Toyota has got these issues straightened out by now. Didn't you buy your car the first week they came out ?

I'm also assuming that you've have driven the car delicately since day one. ;) Not saying that your driving habits caused the power window issue though...

Thanks for the morale booster Doug! I saw the car and recognized the name. Keeps getting more competitive in S1, but that's probably the way it should be!

Not to worry we'll talk Loren into putting a parallel parking box right before the finish lights. Then we'll see just how good these new car parking computers really are?

For the most part S1 is one of the few pretty darned stock classes. Not a lot you want to do to a supercar? Will always come down to tires and driving in the end.

Nils is off so someone has to lead the way.

Another warning for S1. Doug has thoroughly trounced me at the last couple of SCCA events. He's got his vette figured out!
