you should always keep all your digits on the outside of the wheel in a street car for just that reason, guys in race cars grip the wheel fully 'cause they don't have as many degrees of motion, often they don't even go a full 360 degrees. that's a hard lesson learned, but at least you'll have a good...

erm I'm mildly interested in the case but truthfully I'm more interested in the phone myself, do you still have it?

Hear hear Glenn

Bottom line Ed, I like the competitiveness with AI and SCCA, but I enjoy CDC event more than either for the atmosphere, all the talk of adding classes and such is all well and good but CDC has an X factor that can't be planned, it just is. Although sausages and free cokes help

Thoughts?

I like it, but would like to add 400+ at an index of 0.985

I totally agree with mike lane here for the club prizes and such, but I also think it would be cool to have the drop down filters that other mike proposed. Keep the prize system in place that we currently have and make the numbers easier to compare in bite sized bits for people that are interested v...

Sweet that's exactly what I was talking about, then the sub groups could organize their own reward system if they want or we could recognize them as a club if there is enough participants.

how about we just expand the registration form where we still enter the same info we always have when registering, but with additional optional details if you want to, then when we make the results spreadsheet we can have those additional details to filter by. like you could enter your specific weig...

It seems to me that we should have the club track Raw and Index, and let their responsibility end there. If there are sub-groups within the club that want to recognize their own champions that is their prerogative. All CDC would have to do is provide the raw data and it's up to the participants what...

Hmmmm, I think we should recognize Nathan Atkins' winning of the Rotary Cup 2013! In yo' face Rocky!

Very Cool! I think i might need that GT40 Mk II in my life thanks Ed!

Congratulations to all the winners! I'm looking forward to a "2013 1/2 Damn Eric!" being appended to Frank's forum sig

TnT results?

by F1 convention, in the event of a points tie, whoeer had the most wins is champion, Eric had 5 '100's to Franklin's 4, Bernie Eccelstone would give Eric the title

Organizers, I'm sorry for the no show I had some things that I had to do suddenly that morning.

I will be at the last two event though, I need to make my 9 for the season!

Hmmm, I've got some snow tires for the rx8....

Coyote wouldn't fit. the Ls is waaaay smaller but still requires modification to get in there. And I can do displacement markers but I'd like to be subtle about it. I still want to surprise people ;) I'm doing a lot of talking about it but for the time being there is no budget of time or money until...

Not totally, but at least now when I bring the brz I won't be bringing a knife to a gun fight. In fact driving in Chris' car with his crap tires but with coilovers and still being essentially on the pace has got me kind of excited about getting coilovers for the rx8, then suddenly I'll be competitiv...

Sorry Josh!
My new set of rivals arrive for the BRZ tomorrow I am much excite!

so I'm not sure if there was a bet per se, but i think that Josh is going to commit hari kari if he didn't beat me in his car, i think we each got 47.8 but we aren't sure of the hundredths. I'm kind of curious because if he doesn't have a next of kin I'd like to be first in line to claim his estate ...

I'll be there for the TnT on Sunday, so if you could leave them with Ed I'll get them from him the next day, Thanks Josh!

my magnetic numbers are missing, last seen on Josh's FRS, they were white and some permutation of 6 3 and 9

Anybody find them?
