POS Racing's bunion says otherwise. ;)

Still no new tires for me, so I will wait until we get closer (and the forecast gets slightly more accurate) before signing up.

Go buy some tires, cheapskate! :)

Naw, I'll stick with flouring the course. I will, however, have my feet up in the shade all day watching people herp derp their way through it.

Maybe in if the forecast holds up.

Thank you for registering. We look forward to seeing you on Jul 20th! REMEMBER - because you registered online you don't need to wait in the registration line at the trailer. Just sign the waiver when you arrive, check off your name on the registration list (it will be hanging on the side of the trailer) and get your car tech'd. That's it!

::Banana::

I'm in.

Registered! STR is stacked like always.

Nevermind. McCann posted it. Worth repeating

I know quite a few of you might not be on the SCCA mailing list. I ask that you please take a moment with me and read a bit about this dear girl.

As many of you know by now, on Sunday morning, July 20^th,there was a very tragic incident involving a young member of our Texas Region SCCA Solo family. Kierstin Eaddy, 14, of Flower Mound, passed away following an accident at the autocross. All our hearts are so sad and heavy at this time.

Kierstin was a warm, wonderful girl who was fiercely competitive and did everything to the best of her ability. Win, lose or draw, she came away knowing that she always gave it her all to 110%! She enjoyed competing in the Formula Junior kart program with her father, Todd, by her side coaching her along. Kierstin was even more well-known on the running track. She was a record-breaking track star at Shelton School in North Dallas. Recently she had tried out for the Junior Olympics as a pentathlete.

One of her passions was volunteering with an organization called Spirit Horse Therapy in Corinth, TX. Kierstin worked with autistic kids at the facility. Spirit Horse provides private, free therapeutic horseback riding services to children and adults in six programs: Disabilities, Children who are Victims of Abuse/Violence, At-Risk-Youth, Battered Women, and Youth After-Drug Rehab.http://www.spirithorsetherapy.com/

Kierstin also attended the Shelton School of Dallas, a school dedicated to helping students with dyslexia and other learning disabilities. The family credits the Shelton School with many of Kierstin’s successes and was a straight-A honor student. The Shelton school is a non-profit organization that is always seeking additional funding for research and further curriculum development.

So many kind people have emailed, called and texted asking how they can help the Eaddy family during this very difficult time. In memory of Kierstin, the Eaddy family has requested that people wishing to make donations contribute to one of the causes that were important to Kierstin. A GiveForward account has been set up to help, and will allow the Eaddy's to direct the donations to be distributed to causes she was passionate about. If you would like to make a donation in Kierstin’s memory, please take a moment of your time and follow this link to the account.

As we receive information from the family concerning services for Kierstin, we will pass it along as quickly as possible. Please keep the Eaddy family in your thoughts and prayers in this difficult time.

Thank you.

Funeral arrangements for Kierstin Eaddy have been set for Saturday, July 26, 1:00 pm at Trietsch Memorial United Methodist Church.

6101 Morriss Rd
Flower Mound, TX 75028

Thanks for posting the info.
