I started a thread for this a couple of weeks ago. I suffered a broken flexplate on Sunday, so my car is in pieces. If I get it back together, and have any money left, I will be there.

Yes, I do have the WORST luck. But my automotive misfortunes are nothing compared to what I'm going through on a personal level...but we wont get into that.

...I've never driven a manual

Spinning is kinda hard to do on a FWD car, unless your gonna slip some 200f/1200r springs on there and a fat rear swaybar and some 155 sectional bald rear tires on me.

Dont you just wish sometimes, that life was as simple as autox?

u'd be suprised how easy one can spin a ff car. i'fe spun once at speed. and with the set-up i'm running for sts, i think it will rotate very well. as for the rains, i'm gonna bring my r's, but run on my azenis. i want to see how they are, but if it clears up i'll throw the r's on.

Only time I've sorta spun was at the Aug 11 event when I put on my wipers and distracted myself trying to turn them off and fucked up my run. I was mad, so as I exited the course (you guys remember how there was a sharp left turn right after the time marker at the end), I just turned my wheel and stabbed the gas and went sideways with my fronts just spinning--betcha Mr. Honda never expected that from his Accord.

"Click" your heels together Three time's and mutter "It's NOT going to rain, It's NOT going to Rain, It's NOT goint to RAIN!"

It now says it's going to be cloudy and highs in the 60's...

Usually I don't believe any weather caster but, since I and WE want to do something that requires their forcast to be remotely correct, I believe in their wild guesses at Mother natures fury...

Let's just hope that the fury is less and their guess is indeed true so we can all have a fun, dry day.

See you guys there and some of you before the sun even rises! 5AM comes so very soon...
