Equipe Rapide Challenge Cup #1 - March 9, 2014

How bout you HS boys run in STF?

And just to be clear...there is no charge to register onsite VS online right? I am considering doing both events this weekend up there if the weather will cooperate.

Same price online or on site.

No extra charge for onsite. Why in the hell would I run in STF against your monster?

We have an X class at ER, run with us there and play against all the big boys too.

I'm out. The replacement radiator came out of the box looking like it'd been already hit. No new one until Monday.

There is an NB radiator NIB on craigslist for $60.

Thanks Mike. The boys of Blue & Yellow are getting the replacement for me, it just won't be here in time to put in and get to the event (as I'm working on Saturday/Sunday night on top of ER #1)

I really liked the course today. Much better than the map. Fun event.

[BigDmiata]

Fun course, even in a slow car.

Bravo ER...awesome event!
My first time at lonestar park . Cool venue with the hills and off/on camber curves . Hope we get to have more races there

[Clovis]

Great course and nice event today. Enjoyed breaking in my new STR ride. Good times at LSP.

Big kudos to Andy Cost and his setup/teardown crew for a terrific course and event today!! I also enjoyed being back at LSP.

[Robert]

Really fun event, I am glad I made it.

I have always enjoyed the LSP site, hope we get a lot more events there.

How was the site in regards to graveling up?

[TxCoyote]

It gravels, we blow, it gravels, we blow ad infinitum. Go ahead McShane, here's an easy one for you.

Thanks for the props. I've made my share of disappointing courses before and am happy that one worked out. My only regret is that the hinky-dinky section didn't flow well. There was no good way through that area because of the humps and ridges in the asphalt so I had to make a compromise with a big offset.

[jrj512]

The kinks helped separate the men from the boys.

It was a good exercise in patience, Andy. I didn't think the gravel was all that big of an issue. Its definitely there, but I felt like the line stayed pretty clean, the blowing worked well, and it was still a fast, fun course. If you got to far offline it was spin city, but that's the case in most venues that aren't concrete, right? I loved cresting the blind hill at full throttle; not something you get to do at most autocrosses!

I'm excited to be putting on more events there this year. Maybe we need to arrange a post-event trip to the Sports Book next time. :)
