    Texas Motor Speedway, the bus lot (SW corner of TMS, you'll see all the cars and cones).

    Prepare to be super bored unless you ride along with everyone!

    I thought the Mini was closer to 2,500 pounds. Anyway I just pulled an Altiain and got a co-drive.

    See you all tomorrow.

    Majik is just messing around. He's a very fast driver, he just chooses not to race anymore.

    That's not the word on the grapevine. Here's a hint: I'll probably get beat by my own car tomorrow.

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

    Has anyone ever done the "as many people as doors" thing and had 4 people in the car for any of these?

    I wonder if the extra grip from the weight would make up for the extra weight?

    They used to call me the autox taxi back in FL when I raced a 4-door M3.

    Yes, No. Looks like a Jack in the Box convention with all the giant bobbing white "heads."

    Default Great event!

    Had a great time at the bus lot today. It was a fast and very fun course. Kudos to NTAXS, Jimmy and the whole crew.

    The event ran smoothly and we finished up early...we were done and packed up by 4pm. Good to see some of the stragglers who hadn't AX'd recently.
