It was snowing when I got up today in New Hampshire, I drove my truck and trailer home, on slicks. You kids need to toughen up. I'm glad your parents aren't on here.

My Miata is coming to visit this weekend too. Maybe I'll ..nevermind.

I seriously could care less, but if the rule had the term "roughly half" in it as part of the formula you might want to tighten that up some. I haven't been around as much as usual, I've been working on my car..it's now is on street tires, weighs 3501 lbs, and has 99 hp. Can't wait for thi...

I haven't looked at the results or standings, but think you should stick to whatever the rule was at the beginning of the season. Changing the criteria at the end of the year is not a great idea. I've been involved in some series where the rules were "fluid", someone will alway think the c...

Hey Frank,
Are you considering lowering the price?

Actually I'm afraid of dying from continuing to drive every weekend with broken ribs... I did enjoy checking out the radar last Saturday noon though.

How wet was it? It was so wet, Fred Kelley didn't show. Actually, the rain never got to be torrential and the wind was mostly calm. It rained steadily from 10am on, so Heat 1 got the only dry runs. I liked this event better than many with temps in the 90s and high humidity. I had my trailer hooked ...

So does not cancelling mean it's on? I don't really want to switch tires and load it up if we are not a go.

"rain more on Saturday even than Saturday " that clears it up.

O.K. you can drive mine.......

according to the registration list you are both driving it at the same time, so only one of you needs to know how to drive it.

And if anyone has a cute girlfriend or wife that I could take for a spin netween heats at Bowie let me know, I'll buy you a hotdog.

are you bringing your up and coming co-driver??

I sold my Miata after Frank bought those wheels and tires...............

I realized that I'm always on the wrong side of this stuff, but my wife has a 60 mile bicycle race at noon on Saturday. It isn't cancelled. It is July in D.C, hot is normal, bring a hat and extra water. I guess I'll be standing on the side of the road watching a bicycle race Saturday.
Just my 2 c's.

I though he was Salvador's bro.

nope, only my fellow Buddists.

I'll be happy to replace your clutch after the Dali Lama's b'day. And you can't drive my (sold) Miata.

Wade can't talk Saturday, he is always speechless when getting his ass kicked.

I'm guessing that the 48 for the Porsche was a result of the timing method (i.e. sticky start button on wristwatch). That guy is good, but alway several seconds behind Wade and Larry.

If I were to do it again i'd build a Factory five challenge car instead of the Roadster. I'd build it the same way and it could be driven on the street but it has a cage and I could do alot more track events and hillclimbs. Jens cobra does have our electric hydraulic steering. It's basically the sam...

and yeah, he is running it, i think most of the cobra guys are. Some of us can't afford that fancy-pants stuff. ;) I run the stock fox-body mustang pump/rack. DIRT cheap at any autoparts store. The electric setup is pretty sweet though. I think Larry is using a KRC pump? Ben has Fred's setup. He/Wa...

I'm so proud of myself, I just deleted my post before posting! It's a breakthrough.

Since, I'll be finished early too, can I come to dinner also.

I've been hacked!

you can drive my car as long as you run heat one. I have to be in Montgomery co for dinner.

Jacob,
To answer your question, yes, I would mind.

I also like Winchester. I am not in favor of test n tune runs for a reduced fee. I'd rather pay a little more for more runs that counts, or leave it alone and try to get more participants. We only get this lot in the summer, and I think attendace is a little lower since everyone is doing more other ...
