Capital Driving Club Discussion Forum

I've got a couple of dings in my FR-S I'd like to get fixed.
Fred

I left early too, I think i did one run that slowly. I'm sure the PM was much faster.

What! not 'till next year!! According to the FR-S/ BRZ kids I'm already too old.

This is a slippery slope for a club. First you dont like SCCA rules and you try to stay away and make it "funner". Then certain people want a class to have fun with each other. Then another group, then another. Soon you have tons of classes and rules that people agree on. Then a committee...

Great, lets get a jump on this and start it from the last event!

Name proposal? .........Fred's class. Ah, I crack myself up. You silly kids.

If you want them/us to have a class I'd be for letting them do whatever they want to the car short of forced induction and keep them on street tires. They seem to like to do lots of mods, most don't make 'em faster, and a big class of pimped out twins would be fun. Mine is staying RCS.

Fred

That was fun!. I know you guys are always thinking about the bottom line to grow you club, How about selling cones hit???? I'll buy a start box cone for $10.00.

Well, after standing in the cold for 8 hours Sunday At Fed Ex I was a "popsicle". My Dad did say some kid kept bugging him about driving "his" Cobra at HG. I need to teach him how to drive. Glad the food poisoning only lasted a day though.

Given the weather forecast I thought the turnout was great. My dad took my slot and said it was really fun. I wish he'd driven my car faster though.

If you show up at the event with cash you'll get in.

I'll be there both days and Ben L is signed up too.

My first car was a '67 MG BGT. I loved it, but it did suck too. Lucas electrics are always horrible and unreliable. Mechanically they are interesting, but not very so good either. If you want a lifelong project get an old English car. The pre '73 cars are a lot better than the older models because o...

Thanks Ed,

I know scheduling is really difficult and I am sure you are trying to figure it out, but please try to avoid mid season conflicts with Fed Ex as much as possible. They have events 6/07, 6/30,7/28,& 8/4. I want to do as many CDC events as I can.

Fred

I'm in favor of moving the location around year to year... like somewhere in MD this year.

Ed,
Please don't ban Wade from the next event for being a baby, I'm planning on dusting off the Cobra and bringing it.
Fred

Wade, If I knew how to get on facebook, I'd definately defreind you.

I'll give you a call tommorrow.
Fred

Howard,
I'll be going and would be happy to bring your wheels. I'm not sure I'm that convenient to you though. I live close to Rt 70 in Frederick.
Fred Kelley

Wade , first off that wheel was not damaged due to driving ON the road. RPF/1's are awesome, ten times better than the R1's. I was shocked at the performance difference. You can borrow mine while waiting for a replacement, or better yet sneak over when I'm not around. They are by the side door in th...

As we all know, a high heat index can be very dangerous... just stand to the west of Larry in the AM and the east of him in the PM and we should have plenty of shade.

Ed said it was O.K. for me to drive the winged thing..

Hey Frank,
Thanks for the $50.00 I did what you said and I signed up as you.
Fred

I'm pretty experienced at this stuff,I don't hit cones or go off course often. I can say that I have been called OC several times, sometimes in a row and I was 100% sure I was not OC....turns out I was wrong. The mind is a funny thing. Getting called mistakenly off once definately could happen, twic...

Registration is open for this event. It on the Shenandoah @ Summit. They have three PDX groups and a club trial group, which is timed laps. This track is really fun.

Registration is at dlbracing.com, or go the the wdcr scca site.
