Does TxDOT know you are borrowing their barrels?
That's quite a party -- barrels, grill, and charcoal.
I have a letter authorizing me to have those barrels. I bring the grill and charcoal to every MW event and have been making burgers instead of high tailing it over to Subway.
That barrel is TOAST! so, do you hit it head-on, or just grab it by the handle as you go by?
I've got a jousting lance that you have to stick through the handle as you go by.
Enough about you and the wife. How did you get the barrels? Is barrel racing on Saturday? I can only make it on Sunday.Quote:

I have no plans to do any official timed barrel racing on Sunday but I might be persuaded to put them out after the event is over and allow Johnny Come Lately to take a few laps.
How many did you get? We need 6 for a real head to head auto barrel race.
Come out Saturday afternoon for the barrel racing and pizza party.Quote:

Bummer. I'm gonna miss this weekend. Y'all have fun. Which one of you Rodeo Clowns will be in the barrel?
On site registration available for Saturday? Kinda last minute, friends bailed on what was suppose to be my bachelor weekend, I need to get out the house, abuse the Porsche a bit.
We always have on site registration available until 9.
It was hard trying to autox without Jj.
Unfortunately, I cannot make it either day, Saturday most importantly, I have to be back in town by 3pm, work+run won't allow that...unless I work inspection, registration, or setup...which I don't mind doing... At any rate, you guys have a blast!Quote:

We were done by 1:30 today, probably about the same tomorrow since the course is already setup and most cars are tech'd. You can do it!
I really want to but my wife has to go to work at 10am. I will be waiting for some videos!Quote:

I guess you are all wondering where the Sunday results are posted. There was a discrepancy with the Rapide PAX results. A few of the cars didn't get Rapide PAX runs recorded becaust the trailer workers couldn't see the start line and missed the R on a few. I have verified with all the parties involved and changed a few runs from regular runs to PAX runs. The bad news is that there were a couple of places that got shifted down in the standings. The good news is that you get to keep the money if you won some. There are two people that we owe some money and they both know who they are. You can see the final results at AXWare https://axwaresystems.com/axorm/file...p%2010_fin.htm Kenny should have them on the website pretty soon. I'll get the year end points tallied and updated. We had a good last two events and a good season. Thanks to all who participated. The Awards Banquet will be December 3rd and I'll get an announcement up for that. Thanks,
Andy, that is the way to step up and make it right.
Add 1 more change. I made 2 r runs, not one.
Hi Andy. I really appreciate the way you handled the Rapid PAX monies, especially knowing there were errors. I am going to return the money you gave me Sunday. I want a spot in the money fair and square. Jeff.
I don't know if I want to do that. It will bump ME down one place.Quote:

Thanks to John Wilson's son Scott for taking the pics! Awesome job! Just an FYI. Mini Cooper S's are classed in DS. They were moved there from GS two years ago. Base model Mini's go to HS.
Both courses were very challenging. Saturday didn't flow very well. But overall was a good course. Sunday flowed excellently, with numerous thread the needle sections, that even in a medium sized car were quite difficult, but fun!
Joe, we ran on street tires for the weekend ;)
What are those? ;) j/k makes sense.Quote:
