Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.

Yes, "my bad" is okay to say, but the word "hip" isn't anymore. :lol:

True. "My bad" can pretty much get you out of just about anything. Once, I ran over a guy's toes and he thought he needed to go to the hospital. I said, "My bad" and then he was totally cool. :)

This sounds very cool - maybe it'll get opened up to the public =)

Ever since the new registration rules I've been running SCCA most every month =(

The rules that required Brooksville to pre-pay with registration. I always forgot when the registration was being opened and by the time I remembered the event was usually full. Guess that's what I get for not paying more attention :roll:

Having a heavy car (the Mustang) I haven't run SPC very much - usually do the B-ville events.

If you saw the Impala SS and the Ford Fusion that ran last time, you wouldnt be saying that.

It's just an excuse, man up! (oh, and as a side note, kim learned that she cant use a very tight course, otherwise people will show up with pitchforks and torches ;) ).

Hope to see you out again soon.

I hope to make it out some more - SPC is the closest location to me... =) SPC was my first event and it was a very tight spiral course, then it was all Brooksville after that. I think I'm ready to try SPC again now that I have over a year of AutoX under my belt - after all it was the location that got me hooked to the addiction! =)

If the BattleX doesn't get opened up beyond the invitees, then I hope to see ya'll at the Dec. 6th AutoX! =)

Unless a lot of people register over the weekend, the Battle-X entry will be opened up considerably. The next step will be inviting folks who have attended 3 of our events. We'll give them a week, and if we still have room for more entries, we'll open it up a little more for the last few days of registration.
