July 16,17 AutoX event
 

I was wondering what the rules are going to be for this event. Is it going to be like the April event that I made it out to?

I have a (female) friend who would like to come along and ride in my car, and perhaps anyone else who wouldn't mind the passenger. Will there be passengers allowed? Obviously she would have to fill out the release of liability, even though she wouldn't be racing.

One more question, if I do let her drive my car, can we run it as a two driver car in the Novice class?

Yes, passengers will be allowed, and yes, she can co-drive as a two driver car (if she paid the $30/day ... just being a passeneger is free)

The July event is (finally) a plain old regular event. Somehow we're half way through the season, and we've had only one regular weekend... everything else has been an out of town event or the Divisional.

You will certainly be able to take passengers at this event, assuming they're old enough... which sounds like the case. And if she wants to co-drive, that's no problem as well... just have her sign up and pay her $30, and we can run both of you in the Novice class!

Sweet, she is old enough. (31 but don't tell her I told you all that.) Bruspeed has met her a couple of times.

Since thats the case, all my questions where answered. I will be there. I will just need to know what time to show up on Sat.

Before 8am is your best bet to get all signed up and teched w/o being rushed.

That's alot of the reason I haven't been around, that and no $. But I should be there also. Gardnerville represent!! :lol:

<rings Gardnerville bell>

We have a bell??!!! Sweet.

Yes INdeed...Matt Diablo on KRZQ rings it every day around 5...hahaha...good times.

I think I have a couple of the guys from a local tire shop coming down for the event also. One of them drives a 05 Nissan 350Z. The other guy drives an RX8, but he slid it off the road when someone pulled out in front of him. He landed in an irrigation ditch. Got water all throughout the engine bay and into passenger compartment. OUCH.

5?? Meh, too early.

Good work Brian. We need some Gardnerville people to show up there.

5:00 PM

:( I wonder, does his car have traction control, if so, was it on or off?

Oh, I'm dumb :(

We heard last night, online registration is up on myautoevents.com, pre-registration would be appreciated.

Mike Mulhall is one of the event chairs, he's said the Sat. format would be a 2-lap, approx. 80 sec. run; Sun. is 1-lap. Sounds like fun.

I just pre-registered, and they don't have sponsor information anymore ... wtf?

Did you put me down as your co-driver? ;) Chances are I won't have a car by then... again.... ugh.

You should co drive nkoan's car, then we could see your skillz. :)

Seconded. Poor Legacy, It'd never be the same. :lol:

Oh noes!!1 I thought the swap was going to be straightforward, what happened?

No problems with the swap... they're just too busy to get it done ASAP, and once it's in, I still need to break in the motor for a few hundred miles before they can tune it and I can race it.

IDK exactly, I asked to obvious question. Was he drunk?

BUMP!

I hope everyone can make it out this weekend, looks like a great course is planned for saturday, with a two-lap version, ala Mike Mulhall and Jim U. Their course was one of my favorites on last year's schedule, and should be as fun if not better from what Mike was telling me. It will be great to finally have another normal local event.

Also, I have the new coilovers on the car for their maiden voyage, I can't wait to test them out.

Are the coilovers all aligned? So exciting for you. :)

He's working on that tonight. He has my toe and camber guages...
