Sounds like fun as usual up there. Good luck tomorrow everyone and smoke a few V8s for me.

I miss the two-day Reno events. :( We race once a month down here and its always either Saturday or Sunday, not both.

I just got done changing tires in preparation for tomorrow's autox. Looks like a fun course:

i would get so lost. looks like fun though.

Looks like good use of a small space.

Tell us how it was.

today was sweet. got a little more grippy and i was running close to the times of the esp guys :)

i lost to my friend in my own car though :(

that's pretty much how it works around here. :lol:

It does seem to happen quite often. Overall, the SECCS crew ran VERY well today...:cool:

I'm currently attempting to upload todays runs to You Tube. That way, Nick can enjoy his birthday present more fully.

Not I said the fly. F you 3dr gear.

Results are done, Scott has them and I'm sure he will be posting them up any minute now :D

Nobody's EVER co-driving with me again... I've lost every time! :lol:

And anybody that wasn't there this afternoon, I'll sum it up: Jeremy's MR2 is REALLY F*ING FAST, and it caught fire for a few seconds there :eek: The horn wire behind his aftermarket steering wheel shorted, (supplied power, not ground like our Subis) and burned the wire up all the way down behind the cluster. LOTS of smoke. Also spiked his EGT and Oil Press. gauges. EGT is okay, Oil press is shot. Car's okay overall tho. With only 215 width. mediorce tires on the back tho, it's nearly impossible to keep the damn thing going in a straight line once the turbo spools up!

We're planning to do the car swap challenge next time out. Should be fun!

Man, part of me feels sorry for you bro. Hitting cones after the finish on your last (and fast) run is no fun.

But, then again, the other part of me likes beating you by 1/10th. :D

i feel your pain derrik. i think the whole grid heard me yeling about that.

nick when i say its grippier dont take me so seriously :lol:

Here is my Sunday ladies.

Do you mean "here are my Sunday ladies", or "here is my Sunday, ladies"?

And that track looked really open, and quick... I'm surprised the times were in the 40's... what was TTOD raw? 36 something?

I wish my car had been together enough to run, it would have ripped on that course. :( Plus, now that I'm well and good out of it for SM, I'll likely be skipping more events... it's just too much work hauling out there and not worth the risk to the car.

Cory is going to be crushed by that news... :D Seriously, we will miss you. Who else am I going to get to annoy Helen with me? Though Cory helped out today in that area. ;)

the track was ridiculously open. saturday people would spin and not hit any cones or even leave the track. sunday it was even more open. i think the yellow vette rana 35.9xx dont quote me though.

Yeah, it'll suck not being out there... but I've got to balance the risk to the car, the hassle of hauling out there (if the car were street legal, I wouldn't trailer it...), my shot at a trophy, the usefulness of autocross as seat time (it's not really useful at all for track setup tuning... it's really only good for basic shake-down after major changes), and most importantly my time with Lisa (since attempting to make every autocross plus my work schedule leaves me zero free weekends).

Haha, this is the best post I've read today. fun.

It was a great course. I had a blast, definitely have a list of things I need to work on, but the more practice the better.

I do try! :lol: Brakes weren't as warm as I thought on that second run...

Sunday's course was a lot of fun... I had a great weekend. Thanks to the organizers and volunteers.

Helen is a nightmare. She has to find something to bitch about. I was sitting near her during your runs, and she's like. "Why do those damn Subaru's have to hot dog it so much?" in regards to the finish. She was oblivious to me sitting there apperantly...I responded..."It's hard work putting down better raw times in Street tired Subarus than in Race tired Corvettes, they need every inch." I laughed.

She complains to me every once in a while, but to her credit, she did specifically come up to me and tell me that I was driving well, and that she was proud of me for "getting it under control later in the day".

Toward the end of the day, I heard her yell at a course worker "Take that damn flag and shove it right up your ass"

Oh yeah, she was on fire yesterday.
