Jan 3 *ADDED EVENT* FAST Classic @ Brooksville

Postby Loren » Wed Dec 03, 2014 12:54 pm

That's right, we decided that 5 weeks was too long to go without a FAST event, so we added one on January 3rd. It's a Classic event, so some experience required. (3 events is the norm)

Come celebrate the new year, and the fact that we CAN autocross on New Year's weekend!

Registration is open!

You want a discount for aging another year? If we did that, we'd have to pay the Mayor to show up, and then who would take care of lunch?

We do not tell the children that we are older than dirt and still kicking their asses. It's bad for business.

Tell them: "I've lost another year (puppy) can you help me find it?"

I know it's sick but I'm yet another year older and it sounds kinky.

Loren,

For this event, I'll take you up on the Church-In-The-Morning deal. I have to work 8-12noon (read 1230ish to 1pm, depending on what rolls in at 1130 - routine or sick call). then drive the 5 1/2 miles to the airport...

Yeah, we finally got word that someone is working on the problem. Sounds like a server may have crashed, and the hosting company is rebuilding it. And, of course, they weren't aware of the problem until early this morning.

Because they never monitor their automatic site? :bangwall: When I forgot to turn off the computer in any of my cars everything shut down making my life really slow. Hmmm. Maybe like in Catch 22? The secret to a long life is to stay bored.

Any word on this MAE site yet? Still doesn't seem to be working? I need to reserve two spots, I have a friend that is coming into town for this event traveling a long ways.

MAE is DOA.

We're getting a (much better) alternative registration site set up. Should have it up and running by Wednesday at the latest. Stay tuned!
