After the tight 180 to the left of the start, once the first car is headed down the straight along the bottom of the map. That will put the first car in the sweeper before the second car has made it through the wallom.Quote:

I am in, I gotta get out of the house, my job has me wanting to smash feeder mice or cuddly white kittens, that is my only excuse...
Looking like nice fall autox weather...cool am, perfect pm. Break out the Toyos!
What is a Toyo...you speak of?
The Toyo R1R is a really good tire for cool weather and/or rain. Not so good for hot weather unless you water them a lot, but they are super-sticky right out of the box.
I have a lightly-used set of 255/17's for sale... :)
Can I register and pay on site Sunday morning or is it preregistration only?
You can register on site (cash).
Yep, on-site is no problem, other than being cash-only.
Of course it'll cost you extra though Brad :punchout:
If those were in the 285/18 variety I would be all over it!Quote:

I know in the past some groups didn't allow walk-up but in this case I am already paid up. Those that are in the know, see any issues?
Andy usually trolls (apt description in his case:D) this board so he will weigh in but ER allows walk ups so there will be no problem.Quote:

I got you hooked up.
Jack Junkies has donated a gift certificate good for 2 Hours on ANY lift (even the big 4 post) at their shop! We will draw from the Rapid Pax entrants during the award ceremony immediately following the event. You need not be fast to win, and maybe you will be after you spend two hours putting go-fast bits on your ride!

Big thanks to Greg Piper, Lostlorin and Robert for setting-up and tweaking the course this morning. I wasn't able to get there early after being sick most of the night, so those guys really stepped-up and did a terrific job of laying out a very fun to drive course.
Best course ever at Dallas Raceway. Fast, Furious and fun, the three FFF's. Great design OZMDD, I heard not complaint one about it from anyone and I have never heard (or not heard) that before. Great weather after the chilly morning and I had fun battling with John Wilson for 2nd in STR. That was the most fun I had at Dallas Raceway and made it worth the 1.5 hour schlep from Denton. Even Senna had a good time making friends and humping legs.
Who let the dogs out...
But anyways, great day at Crandall. I enjoyed setting up the course and seeing all the little tweaks to make it safer and more challenging. In the end, it wasn't super technical but I think the speed made up for it. I was definitely on the rev limiter in 2nd at the end of the straight bits. And I got to use my announcing chops for last heat (you're welcome Aaron ;)).
And just to think...we are halfway through 4 straight weekends of autocross awesomeness!!
I had a blast driving yesterday, that was a fun course especially getting the 2 extra runs.
Awesome course. One of the best I've raced in my limited time doing this. It was fast and challenging, but not painfully so. Sadly, my RS3's were dead coming in, but I still had a blast. I'm not sure why my last rpax run wasn't listed; a moot point since I nailed the cone wall anyway, I'm just curious. I was #5NSTU - blue Evo - if anyone remembers that.
I'm sure Aaron remembers that.
I had fun picking up your lower front bumper :D
^Ha! Thanks for setting it aside for me. I hit that cone hard.
Hmm, no one mentioned a rerun to me (which I would have loved, heh), so I just went back to the paddock.Quote:

Glad you liked the course as most of us, if not all, will concur - great job OZMDD and friends! Your lost lap time may be due to a problem we had with cable connections - one of my runs was lost too. We will try to rectify this. When trailer skins shred strange things will happen! Hope to see you at the next event.Quote:

All I remember is how floppy my tires were.Quote:
