I will be there. First BMWCCA event in a while, but we're running short on testing time before Nationals.
I'm in for Sunday only. Saturday is my grandson's 1st birthday party.
In for Sunday only, don't know what I'll be driving. Sold the wheels/tires for the RX-8.

LOL! Forgot about the brakes, maybe we can set them on fire next time. :clap:Quote:

As they say, you actually see the course better with your lights off because you can look ahead further. There are no corner workers. One color of glow stick on the right cones and another color on the left cones. Since we had already gotten to know the course during daylight fun runs, you do not get lost as you might expect at night, plus it is surprising how much of the course you can see.
Good food, too.
Off to set up today's course...
Not a bad event, other than the timing issues towards the end. Whoever desgined that course is greatness! ;)
Congrats to Miatamoto on his X-class win.
Good stuff! Great course jrj512.
I wish I would have gone a little faster in the afternoon, but I just kept messing up at least one element. Just couldn't get it all together.
