That weekend I'll be instructing at Putnam Park with Hoosier Chapter BMW CCA.

The previous weekend I'll be instructing at Mid-Ohio with Northern Ohio Chapter BMW CCA.

I don't think either event is sold out; sign up and come join us!

I heard Kelsey will be there, I'll email him. Not sure who else will be coming out.

I hope to be there. I just need to put the cylinder head back on, transmission back in, get a dyno tune, and some body work done.

I'm a couple of bumper covers and a passenger door away from being complete.

If anyone really loves driving Mid-Ohio (heck, who doesn't?) but maybe it's kind of far so you're looking for the opportunity to do a lot of driving there to make it worth your while...

On Memorial Day weekend, you can sign up for two events, back to back. The Northern Ohio Chapter BMW CCA has a school Saturday-Sunday (Friday too, for instructors and advanced students), and Chin Motorsports has a school Monday-Tuesday (Monday is the holiday). So you can go there and drive on the track for 4-5 days. I'll be there...

H1's going to be a battle, all seven of these cars should be within 1 second!

Who's going to get 3rd place in H4?

I just emailed him to see what's up. He may be licking his wounds from Nationals still (Rolling the borrowed red CRX).

Colin is supposed to be getting maried either that weekend or the one before or after and is still unsure what his plans are for the year. I know he still want to make a go of it in his new CRX, possibly with a new powerplant in H1 or doing a "stock swap" and kicking everyone's *** in H2.

See everyone at the track!

Regards,

Sam

Oh congrats to Colin. Jim doesn't feel like making the haul, so I'll be driving out on my own with the Evo. I'm already having nasty flashbacks of my last trip out to MO with the Evo
