I jumped on the all day bandwagon! I plan to spend the afternoon working on getting a lot closer to the cones. Apologies in advance to the course workers since there's only one way to know how close is too close :cool:

If any of the experienced guys have any energy left after the novice school I'd be delighted with a little coaching / critiquing!

See you there.
Dan

2015: The year Steve became a car whore.

(not that there's anything wrong with that)

Hmm. Hopefully the new car will be ready by then... Still have to swap the shocks and sway bars, get it aligned... The brakes mostly work and it only has one CEL now so it's almost ready!

If not I'll have to bum a co-drive. :)

Car has an appt with her voodoo doctor on the 3rd - let's hope she's healthy by the 8th.

We could probably justify letting you drive the FASTiva if it's not. That would level the playing field a bit, wouldn't it?

That would be interesting....

And potentially terribly embarrasing. But, I can always play the "I taught her everything she knows" card. It doesn't usually help, but it makes me feel better.

I don't think my health or life insurance would cover me...

I tell them I'm a competitive chess player, and that sometimes things can get heated!

Last month the event was full of FRS/BRZs in modified and stock. Where did they all go this month? :headscratch:

Maybe they're afraid to drive to Brooksville?

I think we had a bunch of folks from a BRZ/FR-S forum at the last event. Not sure what happened to them this month, but we've got something like 25 first-timers in their place!
