And M3 and M4 and S4 and S5.

Miatas are EVERYWHERE!

I was wondering something about event points.

If a person is signed up and DNS do we still count them in the x2 up to 12 pts? I have two cars in two classes so it might matter which car I sign up? :twisted:

If it's any consolation I went to a car show tonite and there were 25 vettes in assorted colors and years. They're everywhere food is provided also.

S0 has the same problem :lol: Maybe I should have entered S0 to get 2pts for second place? Nah. Get 6pts for finishing 6th in a group of 6 :cool: Hard to get one's head around all this classing/pts stuff. Looks like cars are going to be mostly modified in the future. Stock won't exist at all. I noticed that most used sports cars I look at on line are modified...which is a real turn off for me unless they kept all the stock parts. :dunno:

I'm hoping so. Got some new R-S4's on the way. I was really hoping they would be here before this event but it wasn't to be I guess :(

I haven't seen this much trash on the streets since the morning after the hurricane!

A.) I said challenge... Not win.
B.) I knew that already



Ahahaha - actually, I'm in my own car this year so I'm likely to be picking up the trash at closing time unless I throw some cash at the problem.

That's 2 points more than the rest of the class gets for not showing up! Where ARE all the muscle car guys, anyway?
We're all moving to M2.

Hmmm... after ACTUALLY looking at registration, I think my goals for tomorrow are:

1.) Don't lose to the Mirage
2.) Don't be last in M1

Now I cannot figure out if I actually would fair better or worse in the rain.

I almost just registered in M1 for the fun of it.
