POS usually gets these started, but I guess I beat him to it. Not many C Stock cars registered yet.... Who's going?

Pennington Field this Sunday!
I haven't decided if I want to stand in the rain all day on Saturday and Sunday yet. :wink:
Looks like you're back in the MR2 again this season. What happened to ride shopping?
Rain? It doesn't rain around here... bite your tongue.
The MR2 deal is great for me. It would've been nice to try something different this year, but it just wasn't in the cards. Jimmie takes such great care of the car and is very understanding of my position in the club - I don't always get a chance to help get the car ready at events, and he's OK with that. The deal really works out well for both of us.
I really wanted to buy an Elise or a Z06 to go play with the SS crowd, but I also want to stay married. If I show up with a new car you guys will know I'm single...

Yes he does and he always includes a link. That POS is the greatest! ::Fruity::Quote:

Quick question why do I recall this being cheaper last year??Quote:
Our records show that you are a SCCA member and will be charged the Member price of $20.00.
Because it was. They need to make more money. Which is fine with me. It's only $5.Quote:

hahaha, I'm not only a member, I'm also the President.Quote:

We've greatly simplified things this year. It's the same cost if you walk up or pre-register. Yes it's $5 more per event than in '05, but we had to do that to stay afloat. Members $20, non-members $30.
The best deal is to pre-reg for the whole year. You get 9 events for the price of 7, that makes your per-event cost $15.55 (member) or $23.33 (non-member). It also locks in your number and work assignment. You can pre-register that way Sunday morning. Print off the form here
Our mission for '06 is to maximize the number of runs people get. If there's any way we can, we'll be ratcheting up the number of runs beyond 4. There are a lot of variables that make that possible (or not), so we'll be making the number of runs decision at each event.
Hmm... sounds like a step in the right direction. If it isn't pouring with rain on Sunday, I might have to come and give Mr. Cheesecake a run for his money in TCS. ::EvilBana
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOQuote:

I'm in. Rain or shine. :drive:
Opps I forgot to register on-line, my bad!
Think I may pay for the year in the AM. ::Banana::
So who all wants to meet at Einstein's!
I'll be there a bit after 7.
sounds good to me
See you kids at 7am!Quote:

Hopefully we appeased the weather gods enough by standing out in that crap that it will be nice, sunny, and 75 degrees in Arkansas in a couple of weeks. :mrgreen:
I looked at a rain suit at work yesterday, and I decided that $30 was too much. I'm also very stupid. Don't have a clue about the results, my best run was a 41.111. Stopped at Walmart on the way home and picked up some sweatpants so I could drive home in dry cloths. The lightning was getting kinda scary, but I had a pretty uneventful drive home. Hope everybody else made it safe.
I put my Bike Nashbar Gore-Tex rain suit on before I left home. You see, I did learn something at the test and tune. I stayed pretty dry all day long. I think I finished 3rd in G stock, fastest car on street tires in the class. Best was 39.9xx.
My trip home was uneventful also and without rain from TMS to Gainesville. It is still raining here now.
Is there any word on how their going to do the results?
I'd like to know this as well. I really hope they don't throw out the results because 40 people were missing one run.:(Quote:

Mr Adams is working on the results today. Should have something out soon. I'll post back when it's complete.
Hey Solo RX-7 you and your band of Minions did a great job Sunday considering all that mother nature threw at you guys! :clap:
I'll second that. Things could have been a lot worse, given the weather. Hats off to Mr. Lucas & co.!
Add one more to the thank you list. If I paid for the year, will my name show up on the dlbracing entry list?
Yes :clap: and yes.Quote:
