MattR · 2007-05-09, 10:17 PM

My Mom moved to hawaii so the race is on! hahaha.

Forgotten · 2007-05-09, 10:35 PM

I took my Mom out to lunch today, so I may try to do both morning and afternoon both saturday and sunday depending on how worried I am about finals.

sperry · 2007-05-09, 11:12 PM

I saw my Mom last weekend in lieu of this weekend.

Yay for you!
Bring them out, let them know there are some moms there who autox who really enjoy it, and see if they want to get in for a ride, or even give it a try themselves. Tell them I, as a Mom, said it's very liberating.

But at the very least if you don't see her on Sunday - give her a call and let her know you really appreciate her.

Thats all I have to do. My Mother lives far far away.

MPREZIV · 2007-05-10, 11:28 AM

I can see my Mom's house from the tarmac at Stead. I'll just take a drive up to see her after the event.

Pat R. · 2007-05-10, 01:36 PM

There's also an event in PHX on Saturday. If you're sick of the cold weather up there come on down- its supposed get up to 105° here.

JonnydaJibba · 2007-05-10, 01:40 PM

Its' been 80 all week!

I did a track event when I was down there at PIR with the Bondurant school... it was 117*. Feck. I'm SO GLAD to be back in Reno... Except I miss Angie and Jimmy's sub shop... If you haven't been there Pat, I HIGHLY suggest it!!!

¿Dónde está?

MPREZIV · 2007-05-11, 06:37 AM

IIRC, it's at Indian School and about 35th avenue... From I17, head west on Indian School, and it's on the right hand side. Order the Italian Cold Cut Sub. it's making me hungry just thinking about it...

NevadaSTi · 2007-05-11, 07:37 AM

Any Sacromento ringers coming?

Wait, the corvette guys are still complaining even though there is a BSP Corvette at the top of the pack? On race tires, no less. -NevadaSTI

I wonder too. The bay area autox forum has a thread that they are wondering why there are no events down there this weekend, and someone posted that there is an event up here.

Also would be nice to have some elements we can practice with, (for those who are going to Hawthorne).

I helped set up the course today. It doesn't look like I'll be doing any downshifts to 1st but thats what I said last event. See you all tomarrow.

M3n2c3 · 2007-05-12, 11:12 AM

I won't make it this weekend. Possibly not next event, either (right next to my wife's bday = no money or time). I don't know if I'll make it to more than one or two events this year.

I'm thinking about selling my subzeros and azenis in order to fund a few other little bits.

Joeyy · 2007-05-12, 08:43 PM

Link to my first run on Sat. Man was I slow.

And one more...faster but eat a cone in the outside of the finishing curve.

Wow, hurry up and wait, huh? A 3 minute vid for 50 seconds of autox.

Libila · 2007-05-13, 12:59 AM

I'll post some of the pictures from today when I get a card reader. From what I can see on the two inch screen they look good but I was only able to get the first run group before I got kicked off the course.

Oh was that you that got kicked off the course? I was at station 6 with the big guy that kicked you off. Yah, you gotta get a spotter next time. Can't wait to see the pics.

Happy Mom's day all you Mothers.

Libila · 2007-05-13, 09:10 AM

I had a spotter for the first run group and I was coming over to six to ask if one of you guys would spot me but that guy wasn't having any of it. Oh well, I just napped in Pete's car instead.

wrxkidid · 2007-05-13, 09:13 AM

and got harassed by my mom.

Corner worker <> spotter. You have to have your own, the corner workers already have a job...

MPREZIV · 2007-05-13, 03:59 PM

Car crapped on me today... Saturday was not bad at all tho! Overall, a good weekend!
