------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3/1 Buttonwillow (Ti2tt) & April 18th-19th @ SOWS (tdaz) sounds like a good candidate for a HT-west Quiks66 honorarial trackday. I think i may do both pahrump dates w/ ti2tt, though june may be cooler than september.

I may be in for multiple ticket packs next year!

I'm sure someone's in your area spoon. Friends with benefits (as in, trucks, not fuc...n/m)!!

Which days are most people free? I have weekends off and holidays, and every other friday. So Monday and Tuesday trackdays are usually a no-no.

I bet you could put a hitch on that s2k and tow your bike there. Wouldn't be the best, but not unmanageable. Could just ride the bike there too and mouch canopy space.

And a 2-door integra, too. I've considered getting a hitch for my Civic, but I'd rather hold out for a beater Taco instead of screwing around with my 1.6L VeeTakk!

Damn Toy's and their reliability. A friend of mine has a '91 with nearly a quarter million miles on the original engine and only it's second clutch.

On another note, I'm stoked to see some recent pics of HT people out at the track (FF-Greg, Gixx, etc). Can't wait for the track day in Feb/Mar
