4/23 ax at Bowie
Everyone ready for Bowie coming up? I actually will be running a new to me car I picked up last night so I plan on running that instead of the miata. Everyone will definately suffer from deju vu when you see it... (also please not try to laugh too loudly as I learn to drive a new SM class car.)

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
are you running small bore?
If so... I might have to bring my corolla out with no front bumper...

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
You bet I will. I'll of course suck badly (I know no difference ) however it would be awesome to have rampaging 'Rollas. I've printed out the new bar codes. I'm guessing that will supercede my registration which I registered using the NC miata? I'm hoping to run the r-comps but may just run with re-11s.

I think you'll be surprised by how fast you are in a properly set up car with r-comps...hepcatz wrote:You bet I will.

I think he was asking me so that we could have two Corollas running in SB Saturday.

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
Also... due to poor fore-site and lazyness on my part... I may have to bust out some S05s... I might not put up much of a fight John

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
Mike, you should ride along with me to give me pointers on driving a manual steering 'Rolla on r-comps. (if it doesn't rain) Are you good at making Wookie noises?

I hope it snows. I'm actually praying for two to three inches of snow, but I'll take the rain if that's all I can get.FredK wrote: I think he meant me... I may if the weather looks sketchy.

Lol, I'd be up for snow autocross. I haven't taken my winter tires off yet :-p

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
Definitely made the wrong call this morning. When I got up at 5 it looked like a washout from the radar. Figures I go back to bed and the rain dissipates.

I had a blast mixing it up in small bore! Kinda wish it hadn't dried out though....I was sitting pretty for a while.

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
Great time today! I ran in heat 1 so it was very wet in the morning and slightly damp in the afternoon. I managed to squeak out a 53.0x though so I was happy with that.
Here are some shots I took: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24136705@N ... 561267840/
I would've taken more but my memory card was having issues and I also ran out of batteries.
Thanks CDC for putting on another great event!

If someone snagged a pic of the red FB RX-7, can you send them to me?
That was my first autocross and it was awesome.

Re: 4/23 ax at Bowie
I had a great time too. Good course, great folks and fun runs! Thanks to everyone involved who ran the show. Thanks to Larry, Mike, Dan & Franklin for some brew. It was a great time getting introduced to the new car.
