Weather forecast is for a dry day. We'll see who ends up tied up in a wad. Will be bringing my A game. This Sunday I was at Sebring and pushed hard and sucked less and was very happy with the outcome. Ready to take on the FASTiva, even when I'm decidedly on her fanclub.

I'm probably going to be very late but I should be able to make at least part of the event!

Welcome Chase!

Doug, FYI, Keith has >195 tires and bumped to S4. S5 is ripe for some wide-eyed S4 cowboy with 195's to come in and try to be the new sheriff.

I kept a 57 Healy running with a rubber glove full of gas with a hole in two fingers hung over the sidedraft Webers just to see if it ran so I suppose your mouthful ought to make 1/2 a lap? If Steve held a mouthful too that would finish the lap :dunno:

Lack of fuel isn't the issue, it's to much fuel pressure at idle. :P

Only a Vette can race at idle.

After looking at the map a bit more I realize that the last slalom is decreasing. So I now have 2 goals for the event. Work no being smoother and not wimping out on the slalom.

Your new here, so I'll be nice, but talking about weather on this site is not recommended. We all know that living in Florida the chance of inclement weather is possible any day of the year. It's going to be sunny and clear Sunday, okay ? :cool:

It only rains when Brian is doing his runs.

Usually WRX/STI drivers are begging for rain.
