See some of you at Allsports tomorrow for kart racing then over for some food!

So we are planning to go on 1/15 as it is on the weekend and there is league racing on 1/16.

Aww fudge him, he can't drive worth a darn anyhow. :lol: and yes, beer (except for Guiness and a few) are all vegetables! Barbecue again? Branded 72 (formerly O'Brien's Pit BBQ)? Or will we try some place in Northern VA? I think Roy's Place (the sandwich joint) and Branded 72 (BBQ) are both good foo...

What about birds, molls, babes & bettys? I try to mix up cars and people in the first pages and last pages (non-months), then try to use interesting car shots. And if you're a chick, and you show up to one autocross, to watch, for five minutes, and someone snaps a picture of you for any reason, ...

Thanks Ed, glad some of my pics were good enough to be usable!

Thank you both for calculating the championship points. Also kudos to all involved with input and posting of the event results throughout the year.

I agree with Fred & Kyle, The folks that care about championship points will show up to most events regardless of drop number and the mast majority that do not care will not base their attendance around how many events are/are not dropped. I'd think you would want the drop number small. If too m...

Ed, in regards to your prep list, is it only the head organizer that does this or a team of organizers? How many organizers are there?

I agree, and as the great, wise sage Meatloaf said, 2 out of 3 ain't bad...

Happy Thanksgiving Dan & all!

These two statements are why I use the Star Specs on my daily driver/ax car. If you're running 17s on an E30 bmw it's going to be more about which ones come in a size that'll fit on your car... all the tires mentioned are good, so are RE-11s and kumho XSs I was about to say, in tests the Kumho XS ha...

Planning to ride the steam train of the Western Maryland Railroad in Cumberland on 12/12/10 if anyone is interested, should be a lot of fun. 3 1/2 hour round trip from there to Frostburg

Nice photos, thanks for sharing!

It certainly has a long way to go to be entertaining. Not a fan of Tanner at all. The original TG wasn't nearly as fun so although possible over time it could get better, my vote is it won't make it. Just like most Brit. shows converted over & redone in the US. A unique car show would have been ...

Well, here goes my 2 cents: 1. I agree with coffee (though I think breakfast is a bit much) however it doesn't need to be the club, why don't members bring in coffee or bagels? Can the little generator power a cheap percolator pot in addition to all the electronics? If so, a couple bucks chipped in ...

Not sure if the guy found his missing knife, but I checked my car & it wasn't there.

Fascinating! AJ, tell us more stories of these so called non-miata cars of which you speak. I know your black 2+2 hartop miata is quite quick. =)

Thanks for the quick turn around on the results. Holy crap, I'm 18th in index?! I'm amazed I don't have to use the scroll feature!!! :D It must have been Franlin's lucky penny. Results are up Please inform me of any corrections to be made in this thread or send me a PM. Final championship standings ...

It was fun having another driver's recap meeting!

What a great event (and the TnT today) and another amazing season with CDC draws sadly to a close. Thanks to the organizers and attendees for a great time. We'll have to be more active with some other meets during the down time, carting, drives or the like. I have a few pics & vids. http://www.f...

I saw that too & agree it was not cool.

Ed, I thought the added activities were great and aded some extra fun to any down time and it also gives something for any non-competitors to be involved in. With the extra PC, those of us who keep track of all of our run times don't have to bother the folks working timing after we have our PM runs ...

Another great day with CDC. I've added some photos to the pool but all can be found here:

The mighty Slowe Azz had three folks tossing it through the cone jungle today! Thanks to CDC & Andrewtech.

John "hot rod" Hepcatz

Ha, that was good! I'd vote for Ken, uless they come out with an approved fire retardant racing bikini for Danica who could be the Stigette. Lol Or maybe she could be the Stig's umbrella girl?

I'm signed up. I bet there will be at least 20 Stigs. I'l have to come up with something... Ed, will you be grilling for me to bring the veggie sausage?

Thanks for the quick turn around on the results Mike. Kudos to the organizers for another good time with CDC and a fun course. I'm definitely improving, surprised at some of the folks I beat in index time. Conveniently at the end of the year so I have plenty of down time to forget it all, lol. Had f...
