I could trailer in my horse... yesterday he was just like a S2000... Compact, fast, fun and a bit squirrelly. You have insurance, right? :contract:

Didn't your Google watch tell you that it's next weekend?

Guess my goal this event is to not end up in the Petrie Dish.

I will try to drive better this time. S4 has gotten way too fast this year.

Time for S2 to return to it's historic past.

Don't forget to drain the windshield washer fluid for maximum lightness!

We just had a Late Session cancellation. Today is the last day of registration. If you know anyone who wanted in, be sure to let them know to get registered by 6pm.

And, of course, tires filled with helium to reduce unsprung weight :d

If you're going to be that hard core, drain all the fluids. The engine will hold up!

I'm gonna blast an email to all entrants about this at some point, but I just wanted to be sure everyone knows this is a SUNDAY event. Because, well, you know... it's not a Saturday event.

Is there a way to confirm what our work assignment is? I want to make sure we are in time if we are set up!

Looking forward to Sunday!!!

I always email anyone who has an early work assignment. I haven't done run/work assignments yet. I guess I should do that tonight.

Loren is getting dizzy from all those runs all ready. OMG....intertainment.

Not to worry lunch is coming on Sunday ONLY. It will be up to the Mayor's usual standard. All food groups are covered thanks to Loren's non-dizzy state.

Phillip you cannot maintain two wheels for 5 laps. I think your Petrie Dish cannot work in under 20C without a lid. I've learned to do this with the Rx8 with real suspension.

Coming your way on SUNDAY ONLY. Forget about Dave handing me my ass in Vette with his lame ass 350Z.

FYI, Tyler William is miss-classed in M4 for Sunday's event. It won't make a points difference, but he should be in M3 with his modified NA Miata. Dennis Ehrhardt with his Datsun 510 might belong in M4 instead of M3, but it won't make a points difference either. I guess I have nothing better to do on a Friday night. :yawn:
