Guess who talked Grant into coming???

Really... Guess?

 

Brian

 

Don't forget that for WC Touring Car 2001. Rookie of the Year. Won @ Laguna in addition to other top ten placings. Good guy who is willing to talk to fans & offer advice (not BS) that takes years to learn if you did on your own.

 

And just think, we were rather close to having Taz Harvey come join us as well (seriously). Could have been a pre-season Speedvision Honda Shootout.

 

woo hoo!!

 

"Our man Foo!" -- Derek Daly

 

any idea what they'll be driving?

 

that was my question, what are they driving, and please let it be in Bookler's class

 

OK, so since we can request instructors, can I request Roger?

PLEASE!?!!?

 

They will be helping out the competition school drivers - and quite a few of you will be in that school.

I am not sure what cars they will be driving. Not sure they know either, but stay tuned.

Either one may even post themselves

 

I gotta look around, but I remember reading a post where Roger talked about dropping his car off to be shipped to the east coast... Anybody else read that?

Dan

 

Hey that's cool. I've been talking to Roger Foo via emails once in awhile

I may have to introduce myself in person finally

 

So far Steve has only made 4 posts, and the 3 that I've found so far have all mentioned me. Should I be getting nervous here? I mean, I know I do theater, but I'm not into *that*....

Matt

 

Looks like he's got his nose in all the aspects of your business. I suggest sleeping on your back just to be safe.

I *think* the plan is to co-drive Roger's car because Grant is considering buying it. Of course, Grant has two other Honda's to choose from as well, so who knows?

 

well i would make fun of other honda drivers, but he's the only one who has showed up to race before, get a couple races in and i will mock everyone else as well

(that is mocking as the scream by the under-powered, overweight, dented brown spec rx7

 

I've got RX7s in the comp school....... From Kirk Racing... Better get those dents undented!!

 

Those are both 13B ITS(PS4) cars.

No underpowered screams coming from them.

 

Uh oh - wo don't hve a PS4 class anymore

 

hey its now how pretty the car looks just how fast it is.....oh yea, its not that fast either

 

well, it might not be pretty or be fast, but it's... uh.... hmmmm. What was my point again?
