Autocross at Lovelock, Labor Day weekend - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

dknv · 2004-08-30, 11:53 AM

If you are going and haven't signed up yet - Matt Benson needs a Saturday night banquet headcount by end of day tomorrow ($10/person). Online registration on myautoevents.com:

MattR · 2004-08-30, 11:57 AM

I'm registered, and I put a note at the bottom for 1 dinner. Is that good enough? If not, count me for 1.

can;t wait..

Dean · 2004-08-30, 12:00 PM

Thanks DK, I had forgotten to do that...

sperry · 2004-08-30, 12:14 PM

GODDAMN I HATE MY AUTO EVENTS DOM COM.

IMO, anyone that uses MAE for their registration process doesn't actually want people to sign up for the event.

Here's my MAE experience:

Sign in >> wait 10 minutes >> give up, sign in again >> wait 10 minutes >> still doesn't work >> go to the main page >> notice that the sign in did work, but the page simply didn't load >> click on Debbie's link again >> wait another 10 minutes >> event comes up, finally >> click on register >> wait 8 minutes (wow, site must have sped up) >> finally confirmation of registration.

That's sooo much more streamlined than:

New email: to Matt Benson >> Subject: Lovelock Solo1 >> Body: Count me in for the event, including 1 banquet ticket >> Send >> Complete.

Anyway, I'm all about this event... and then the Monday after it, the Thunderhill Track day that Lance and Mike are putting on.

I'm gonna have to order more brake parts by then.

Sorry, it may have been because I was in the form running a download.
Still, s/b multi-user.

sperry · 2004-08-30, 12:18 PM

Oh, and n/m my rant about Solo1... I thought this was for that event, not this weekend's Solo2, which I am also "all about".

MattR · 2004-08-30, 01:20 PM

Hey all,
I may need to co-drive someone's car this weekend in Street tire anything...Is anyone willing to help a brotha out? I may be STi-less for a while...

You can beat me in my car again if you'd like.

You just gotta help me install new brake pads tonight.

Kevin M · 2004-08-30, 02:42 PM

Registered. The site still sucks, but this time it only took a few minutes. The planets must have aligned or something just now.

LetItRev · 2004-08-30, 02:49 PM

Hey Matt,

Reading this begs the question.....what happened to your car? I hope everything's ok.

It works for me...Oh well...you miss out.

Pat R. · 2004-08-31, 07:07 PM

This would be a good event to sign up for if you are looking for a lot of practice. I would expect to get six or seven runs per day on a course that is likely to be a cross between Solo I and Solo II. If you're in the Yellow run group you can run for no points in the afternoon on both days and double your seat time!

$40 rooms were still available as of Noon today.

tysonK · 2004-08-31, 07:30 PM

signed up and ready to go.

got a room with Eric.

dknv · 2004-08-31, 08:05 PM

Matt,
Are you shooting for street tire points?

yes. Looks like I'm gonna Run Scott's car...

dknv · 2004-09-01, 07:57 AM

I think STX is only eligible for STX, not Open Street Tire class. Maybe that doesn't matter?

We're checking to see if the car is NESP legal, looks like it was until the new brakes go on tomorrow...So I will run the car in NSM.

dknv · 2004-09-01, 08:07 AM

Alright, that's Great!

Reminder: early registration Friday from 6-8pm will be at Derby Airport (not at the hotel in Lovelock).
As if any of us will have time, but the Ramada in Lovelock has an indoor pool. I'm sure I'll be conned into taking my daughter for awhile anyway. So if anyone is into swimming ... bring a suit.

Are you sure the brakes are illegal in ESP? I thought street prepared allowed brakes as long as they bolt on to the stock location, whereas STX said "brakes are unlimited" (until recently when they outlawed carbon brakes).
