Hopefully if I get my car back when it's promised.

EDIT: I must have gotten confused too, not going to MW. Thought this was a TMS Bus Lot event.

Bummer on the TT. I'm out for this event. Don't think I've got the tire budget for 10 runs at MW this year. See you at the TMS events!

You aren't required to run 10 laps.

Set FTD on lap #2, and you're all set. :burnrubr:

Very true, good point. Of course, not running every possible lap requires a willpower I lack.:D

Lol... BMW results up within hours of event end. The results from the PCA event three weeks ago still aren't online.

Great course, fun day! Did anyone take any pictures of the event?

"2004 Mercury Marauder Dtr" Really??::Blink:: Did anyone get video of this? Did it have 24" wheels?

I believe the Merc rode on something south of 20 inchers. Still he had a good time learning about ax'ing. Great course/event in general, I'm sorry I couldn't stay for course clean up as I had to be back in Plano by 4:30. Can't wait for the next one, at which time I'll bring tires that may actually have a place on public roads.
