What, no LeMans?
For those of you who are planning to attend for the first time . . .

I guess I could also just tape them to my car for that extra cool look.
The magnetic HVAC vent covers from Lowe's/Home Depot work well...Quote:

What about Food & water at the event?? Any vendors going to be around??
;)
The soccer gang will be there on Saturday morning serving breakfast food! Breakfast burritos, donuts and assorted juices in the morning along with their famous brats and dogs throughout the day.
Pack your coolers accordingly...
on edit - they'll have soft drinks and water also
No decals are required for the Divisionals :)
Not quite correct..

The July FasTrack changes this rule; Page 24.
5) General: Remove “Divisional” from the second sentence of 3.7.H.
Which means you don't have to use a National Sponsor based Sticker for Divisional.
Hope that clear things up. :D
We are looking forward to you being an announcer for the event.
Kenny Baker
Chief Steward
Thanks Kenny! I'm looking forward to this weekend!

How about the Jub at 6:30? Then maybe head to the course at 7:00 or 7:15?

I want the altiain special ::Banana::
I don't care if it means a small country goes hungry that day. ;)
If I get to announce during this event, here and now's the time to give me some good info to rib your competitors! come on, feed me some good stories!
I guess we all need to decide on a 10-best for Altiain. There are so many to choose from. ::BaHump::Quote:

1) Hey Iain... Look out for that cone... Dirty runs don't win events! ::ConeDOWN :D
2) Wow... Looks like he may have found "ice mode" on that last run...
You guys suck! :(
BTW Dan, what's a Street Modified Advisory Committee member, and a guy who once said "I won't jump to XP or to a stock class..." doing in a G Stock Mini Cooper S these days? :wink:
Here's a promise from me... If I ever get to the point were I can compete at your level, I'll lay off. Until then, If you can't beat 'em, make fun of 'em! ::BaHump::Quote:

That was subtle...Quote:

Yeah, I guess it did suck. That's what I get for being in a hurry.Quote:

We prefer to meet off-site prior to the event so we can vote on who want to let win. ;)Quote:

I LOVE this Mini, though. The turbo setup is VERY powerful!

Possibly.... unfortunately we won't know if we'll be able to set it up until around noon or so. The lot is used for the FW Courthouse overflow parking druing the week. Week days when we've been by the lot is empty by noon, but you never know.Quote:
