    She feels your current sponsor situation (aka. ball & chain) would greatly limit your potential.

    Change your registration for next week to TCS like me

    You kids need to talk to the current driver before volunteering. That's all I'm gonna say about that deal

    We had a meeting and she said it would be fine for me to seek temporary sponsorship for certain events. Especially since the opportunity could net more beer mugs or even potentially participant ribbons for the entire household.

    Dang... I managed to hang on to 1st? I wasn't expecting that

    I had a blast, for the first heat anyway. I really should have skipped that last run but I pushed myself a bit hard... you'll definitely see me out there again, but only when it gets cooler. That was a little ridiculous

    Thanks for the compliments and thanks to Jerret for the walkthrough; that helped a LOT. I surprised myself by not getting lost on the course once!

    Had a near miss the first time I turned to the first slalom though... I didn't realize it was that tight of a turn

    I'm feeling a lot better now... think I may catch a movie.

    BTW, trophies aren't handed out until the end of the season, right?


    EDIT: I may need to buy me some magnetic numbers now

    Race trophies are distributed after each event. You now have one in my posession.

    Season trophies will be at the giant star-studded gala in December. Be sure to reserve a limo now, as they are in short supply in December.

    It just so happens that my neighbor across the street is a limo driver... I usually have a stretched Lincoln or Hummer in front of my house

    I'll set up a time to meet with you to pick it up. Thanks a lot

    Congrats on your first place finish, Mad Monkey. Hope you're feeling better - it was crazy hot yesterday.

    General Default, where were you yesterday? We missed ya in B Stock. Congrats to miatamoto for making it three in a row.That kid is brutal - now I see why POS doesn't like him much.

    See y'all next week at the Divisional!

    I'll bet you forgot to get the Road Hazard Warranty when you bought them. Serves you right for driving in from home on those tires.

    Looks like the TES battle is closer than B stock with a .6 margin between the 3 drivers. Congrats to Sammm for the tire trophy, a miata better take first next event.

    Shouldn't you be at the local 6speedonline event meet instead of cruising the TCB forum right now?
