You said that ER chalks the course, right? ::Hmm::Quote:

:D
If you want to try AX, Pennington is good in the fact that it is small. It would be tough to get lost, especially if the course is as challenging as the last ER event (can you say circle...). Close to Grapevine too. Register and pay when you get there.Quote:

I also liked Pennington the 3 or four times I have been out there. There seems to be quite a bit of grip, and the different slopes and what not make for a fun ride.
Hope to see you out there Mad Monkey!

Got the directions to Einsteins? Again, I'll be off at 7 but I may be able to make breakfast.
Ok count me in, TES is too much fun.
It is in the shopping center on the southeast corner of Central Dr. and 183 in Bedford. Just come down 121 and exit on Central Dr.Quote:

Granted, of course, competing isn't the only way I can make an idiot of myself, but you get the point :D
Unless of course my boss makes me work tomorrow :rolleyes:

And besides that this is a matter of life and :cat:!
I hope you'll actually compete. I think you'll like it.Quote:

Bring lots of water and sunblock. Bring an umvbrella if oyu've got one (portable shade). Wear light colored clothes (I usually bring an extra shirt so I've got a dry one ot drive home in), and remember to wear closed-toe shoes - no flip-flops or sandals allowed while driving.
Other than that, bring an open mind and a desire to have fun!:burnrubr:
Got it covered!Quote:

And if you try to walk the course in a Segway, it will probably be protested as an unfair advantage. ;)Quote:

Had fun though. Going to sleep now.
Well, get your ass back out of bed and come get your trophy, because you won first place in Novice! :clap: You did a great job for your first race. Hope to see you out there again sometime.Quote:

I'm glad it was a short day because it was freakin' hot! Fun course. Kudos to SpinOut500. Congrats to the Stinkin' Porsche for winning Street Tire. POS won CS. Mark52 won CSP. Miatamoto won BS.
Mad (I think I'm gonna hurl) Monkey showed up and drove very well for his first AX ever. Congrats! :clap:

All and all it was a fun day, just a bit toasty.
But man this makes me sad..... :(
I'm tickled, I didn't finish DFL. ::Banana::I'm going to buy my own trophy for "Not Last Place".
MadMonkey, you drove well today.:drive: Congrats on the 1st in Novice. I hope you are feeling better.
And, Congrats to all the trophy winners.
Congrats to all the survivors, also. It was HOT.::Flame::
Turn it inside out, it'll be OK.Quote:

Where do I apply?Quote:
