    I'm in.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    LOL, I guess I wasn't up for "playin with the big boys" today.

    I couldn't pass up 8 runs at bus lot with BMWCCA and I even got to drive a supercharged Elise on R-comps.

    Should be there to spectate the B-Stock battle and stretch the miata's legs a bit. The S2000 is tired after a class win in OJ at PCA today.

    Stop putting words in my mouth!

    I'm a definite maybe. I'm traveling the rest of this week (yay... back to Appalachia again ) and my wife is in training all day Saturday, so I may be skipping this one to spend some time with the better half.

    BTW, Altiain, Miatamoto said you must be chicken if you don't show up.

    Default Gonna miss this one

    Have fun guys, but I will be there for the drive down to Aggie land.
    I learned this the hard way.....

    Take all of your valuables out of your car at night. This includes taking the mounting hardware off of your windshield or dash and hiding the power supplies. I lost over $ 1,000 to a thief with no hope of recovering my items and to top if off they smashed my window in the rain and my truck got soaked. Let my loss be your learning experience.

    I MAY make this one, but no promises yet. If I do I'll be jumping out of work early and making it up there on time this time (I think I only managed 2 full walkthroughs of the course Sunday).

    Don't worry, you're not missing too much. It's a great car, but it really didn't blow my socks off. It didn't really feel lighter or more agile than my CSP car.

    That's because it was probably only 150-200 pounds lighter total and you had a 180 pound passenger in it vs, yourself in your CSP car. The acceleration is much quicker than most cars I've driven but the handling is tricky and the brakes were horrid (probably due to a track compound brake pad never getting up to proper temp). I had fun in it driving 8 runs on saturday as well if that makes you jealous too MadMonkey
