Lunch will come from Rice and Beans: last time their food flew off the table, literally - two beef empanadas were sacrificed to the Wind Gods.
All that Doug said PLUS excellent Cuban food for lunch AND time to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. What are you waiting for? Go freakin' register!
For the record, I'm not sure what a chicken lift is, but I did ballet in the FASTiva as a result of 2 of my recurring driving deficits: getting behind and yanking the steering wheel on slaloms At that, the FASTIVA said
I DO, however, challenge anyone and everyone to 1) reproduce the maneuver [540+ degrees] 2) do it so tidily that you leave ALL the cones standing 3) stay ON course and continue on to the finish and 4) make your passenger blanch a pasty shade of blanco
Oh, and I have one of the spikey pyrometers (the one you prick into the rubber) if they want to borrow it when they are tuning their tire pressures. Just come over wherever I am parked and ask

Soraya has spoken: Better food than the Mayor can come up with: I cannot wait. She has offered more spins than Dick Clark. I love Dick Clark. Soraya is better than him. Go Soraya. AND she has a Pyrometer!! Ask her to show your tire being pricked.
A Chicken lift mean you "wimped out" and Spun. Woooooooo. Soraya wimping out. Don't see that happening.

Ride alongs are common place with any of us regulars. Learn Drew's secrets. Learn Loren's secrets. Learn Doug's driving language issues. You saw the course map right??? It's awesome.
Sara's Yokohama S.drives good sir.

Joe is using the "Cam Ray" this event. Bound to impress. Or at least toast himself.

If it would run S5 I would bring the 1WD Crown Vic but alas Joe could have had a V8.

I used to say what is wrong with the world is that there aren't any "characters" left anymore. I stand corrected!!

Oh look there is an event this weekend, I drove the MSM to work, because the Honda had an odd idle and a dry dip stick, hopefully the R-S3s don't cord on my way home. ;-)

Dude Hondae don't burn oil. They must not have put any in at the last oil change. Did you go to Walmart?

For those of you thinking you have it made in M2.
I went to the Ophthalmologist and I have a new prescription windshield in my Rx8. Get it Rx 8
M2 Drew, Ron and Joe check your pm. Soraya has answered affirmatively. OR you might be waiting to see what the weather is actually like during our heat?
Looks good until after 1pm. Lately it hasn't broken loose here until 3:30 + so we should be good. It isn't like the course is chalked or anything.
It's hurricane season in FL. Pay your home owner's insurance. Mine was due yesterday.

I am registered in S5 alone which means I should be able to get a sticker tomorrow, if I beat someone in a higher class can I get another sticker for that class?
If I beat Doug, it should count double correct? Once for driving and again for picking up the trash.

My car will be available in the morning or the afternoon depending when you run. I'll be there all day. I can spare you a couple runs to beat me fair and square in the morning. Unlikely I'll take more than two or three runs in my own car in the late session. I have to beat Steve in the Fastiva too. It's not trash talk when you back it up

I'll personally hand you any sticker I steal from anyone in M2 if you beat me. Or I can save one from my morning banana?

I'mma go ahead and bust your bubble.
You have to run 195 width tires to qualify for S5. Wider tires put you in S4. Good thing you have more horsepower than a Miata.

It's lonely at the Brooksville airport when you arrive 30 minutes early.
