Sheesh. I missed that one but looking at the video from that last event...Looks like most folks were grabbing 3rd. Should be fun!

Philip and Jamie have an unfair advantage! They've seen the course already!

And my tires are a year and a half old now!

Just getting those excuses warmed up...

But I'm old...I can't remember that far back. And obviously sucked anyhow, since Philip beat me by 3 seconds. And my RE-71s are new enough that they're not fast yet....

Jason is afraid of Philip and Jamie. I know these things. I provide the mental challenges. I'm older than dirt AND Jamie.

I think I can actually beat S2 if they all run in the afternoon this time :cool: Might not be able to beat S4 tho'? :lol:

That might happen, someone wants to buy my car.

Are we going to have to start doing mid-week autocrosses to satisfy your addiction, Philip?

My heart says yes, but my tires says no.

Amazing how few 2 seaters are left in S2 and how few pony cars are left in S3? Yet the competition is very tight still.

Will be good fun and a beautiful day in Brooksville. :hourglass:

Me too. Nearly 4 years old now. :cool:
Got you beat. Mine are the original tires on a car built in Dec 2010 :)

Not that there isn't a shitton of competition but missing a couple Twins and a 17 MX5.

I didn't replace my brake fluid, four spark plugs and the clutch just to mess with S4 did I?

Damned S4/ES.
Doug,

Looks like you have a rotary. I have an unopened bottle of Idemitsu premix from my RX8 days. Free to a good home. Come find me in the silver NC hardtop Saturday afternoon if interested.

I would be interested in weeknight events. I'm guessing Philip and I are the only ones :)

I don't use it BUT my mechanic does the hardcore NOPi drag races and does. If you are in PM I'll see you there. Thanks.
**Worn tires are always faster than new ones :cool:

These tires aren't fast, they are rock hard from age. But that means they have low limits, so they are at least fun! :-)

We screwed up and went the wrong way... thought we were 30 minutes early, turns out we'll be 15 minutes late!! Is there any way someone will be at the gate to let us in? :(
