Don, Although I didn't really want to swap at Harry Grove you are welcome to drive my car. Wade is a Dick-head, but I love him. I will enjoy taking your car for a spin at a future event. I know I can't possibly take the overall, but I live for small pleasures. Just beat Wade, it will ruin his week/life.

Everyone have a great time and enjoy a veggie free event as I will miss this weekends double show. I'll be at Waldorf on Sat and Winchester on Sunday. I know, I know, I'm scum for cheating on the CDC family with other AX floozies. I'll sober up and come crawling back on the 25th. :lol: In all seriousness have a great time at HGS!

Obviously ill offer up a co-drive if you let me drive yours for this event at another event. Sorry for the late notice and thank you in advance if you offer up your car.

I have a Miata, that is bone stock, i'm more than willing to let you throw around the track

Fred,

It sounds like you would prefer another weekend. As your doing me a favor, id rather not put you where your not comfortable. I would still love to swap sometime in that beautiful cobra on an autocross more comfortable with you. (yes I must be delirious for not just taking the offer and running but im trying to be polite).

Ryan,

If you still have the offer on the table I would love to take you up on it. Plus youll get lots of camera action as I bring two cameras (gopro and a regular camera). I know this is a huge favor so let me know if you need any help swapping wheels or need me to bring something. Youve been goddamn real close to me (and beating me on more than one occasion in raw) all season so id love to see how the Sti handles. Ive been dying to try to get my friend to campaign his Sti in STU for nationals. And you get to drive the M3 at another time, itll be losing another 50lbs and getting another 20-30whp, brand new suspension overhaul (aside from the crappy bilsteins and H+Rs on it thatll stay until ASTs go on) and hopefully some wider rubber. That should really wake up the M3 for next season :twisted: .

Quick question for those in the know......the T&T on Sunday.....is that just us or are we participating with another organization?
Oh No! Your 285's aren't hoosiers?!

And i thought i was going to be rolling pretty big saturday with my used 225/45-17 on $50 wheels compared to my usual 205/50-17 street yokohamas...

I would assume you will have plenty of grip out of the Toyo R888's. Hope you were able to get those things to fit!

Right at home on the front of a z33.....it isn't uncommon for people to fit up to 305 A6's on the front with really pulling on the fenders.

I don't know if anyone had pointed this out yet, but this weekend is also In The Streets in downtown Frederick. Several streets are going to be closed and there will be a lot of traffic in and out of town. May want to plan accordingly. It is a fun little event....with lots of food, etc if you want to check it out after we are done on Saturday.

It's all yours, no help needed. We're both in the first heat so you might want to see if you can jump down to keep the dunlops from getting greasy, but thats up to you. I'm usually at HG by 8 so there will be plenty of time if you want to drive it around and get comfy.

Don,
I don't mind if you drive my car at all, just as long as your car has decent tires on it when I drive it. Tommorrow will be a drop day for you if you do though.....Fred

T&T is going to be interesting. First time with the car, first time with MT, no power steering, crummy tires! It is going to be a blast.

Sorry Everyone. Results are going to take a little longer than usual. There is only one way to screw up the barcode results and I did it, even after Joe warned me about it. Soon it won't be an issue, but for this event, I will have to produce results from the timesheets. You will probably see them Monday evening.

Well.....stainless clutch line failed. Took it to the shop, replaced it, tested it thoroughly, and was fine the whole drive home until I got to the exit ramp before my house...............then no pressure in the clutch pedal again. Not leaking any fluid, but somehow the pivot ball in the trans has now broken and is bouncing around in the trans making a nice tinny noise. Going to have to pull the trans and replace it. Not sure if it will be fixed in time for Cumberland next week :cry:.

In summary....epic fail.

AHhh noo!! I have no patience :P. It happens, thanks for all your hard work all this season with quick postings.

Thank you very much Ryan Palmer for letting me co-drive your vehicle yesterday, is definitely a blast getting back in a car with plenty of power :) Throw me your email and I can send all the video footage I got off you this weekend.

That is tragic. Hope you can get it fixed quickly without too much headache.
