Equipe Rapide has again been hired to host a private autocross. It is on Saturday September 10th and pays $75. This is a closed event so no workers will be allowed to participate. It wouldn't be right for a guy in a Miata to whip up on the club members in their $90,000 supercars. I need 6 volunteers. You will be shagging cones. I'll bring hot dogs. The event is on the East side of Dallas.
PM me if you are interested.
i'm there. i live in mesquite so i'm right down the street from "east dallas" so to speak.
PM sent
So far I have, Bandit, BMcCann, Offsprg01, danzo, nomadtrash. I still need 2 more.
So I guess if you can afford a $90k car you're to good to shag your own cones?::BS::
Nah, just track junkies. ;)Quote:

Lol

OZ bailed. I still need 2.
I still need 2 more workers. It might end up being day workers. Hablas espanol?
What kind of "supercar" can you get for 90K?Quote:

It is the Viper Club. I consider a supercar as any car that I can't afford. Right now that would be a Ford Fiesta or better.
I got a volunteer from the DFWmustangs.net forum so I only need 1 more sucker... I mean volunteer.
Not in my opinion, and a ZR1, Viper or new GTR are not 90K or less new with destination, handling and TTL anyway. I don't think anything you can reasonably daily drive (due to comfort or maintenance cost) is a supercar.Quote:

Some people think Miller Lite is a super beer. The difference between a supermodel and an average girl next door others is based on certain measurements So, solely based on Price I'd agree with Joseph but based on performance Mikey might have a case, depending on where your bar is set. In Mikey's scenario he might be having sex with Rosie O'Donnell but think she's Giselle::BaHump:: It all depends where you set the bar.Quote:

I would prefer 5 finger Rosie to Rosie O'Donnell. But that's just me.........
I thought it all depended on how long you sat at the bar...
Worker list is full. I'm still taking names as alternates in case someone doesn't show.
I'm wondering.... do you have to have an amazing Miata? I have a stock '99... I'm not really looking at the money so much as just being around Miata enthusiasts. Not sure if I'm posting in the wrong spot or not.
Lots of Stock (or near stock) Miata's autoX. Some do well, it depends on the driver. Many modified cars of all types don't do well, again depends on the driver. What you will find is a good group of guys that are very helpful. You will also find a great day of fun for not a lot of $$ no matter how well you do. You definitely posted in the right place.
This is a private event for Dodge Vipers. If you want to be around lots of miatas then you might want to attend the ER event on September 25th. www.autocross.com/er You can also look into attending an NTAXS event. You can find the complete calendar for all the local clubs at www.dfwautocross.com
Did we ever get a location for this event?
It is at Resistol Arena in Mesquite.
I need a favor...if anyone has Andys #, could the call him on my behalf and tell him im stuck on the bridge in rockwall because the freeways closed but im on my way? It would be greatly appreciated!!
Brad gets 10 demerits for being late. Steve gets put on the black list for no-show. The event went great. The West lot at Resistol is too small for an autocross. The South lot is more promising. We will definately be using Resistol again. It has good concrete with some rough spots, dips, and elevation changes. We can work around all of those. Thanks to those that helped put on a A+ event for teh Viper Club. They were very impressed with the event and it all boils down to the great workers we had.
Thanks,
Had fun playing around before the Vipers showed up, disappointed my time got crushed by a few of the vipers though. Was fun watching some of the vipers putt around while others we're letting it all hang out.
even got to slide project miata around the course once. damn ziex are greasy, and boy does my suspension suck...
Only video footage I got was watching BMcCann testing my car and the course out.
