Ill be pulling up the rear in STX

Catch22 what kind of Dodge is it?
My good friend hopes to make it out to a few events this year in his BUILT Omni GLHS...still got a few bugs to work out. SM for him I think.

Ryan, you going to the school on sat? I should be there as well.

Ryan~ from what I hear, you still need all the practice you can get. (hear that? that's the sound of me cracking myself up... Wheeeeee!)

Scott~ Neon, Schmeon! Any car the lifts the inside rear as high Neons do can't be a serious threat. C'mon, I mean really.... what the hell is that all about anyway.... I am truly embarrassed for you.

Seriously, we all need to fear the Scubie 'Prezas in the rainy conditions we're likely to see on Sunday.

Casey, whose spin happy family truckster is secretly undergoing radical modifications to prepare for an amphibious assault on Sunday morning.

At least I've had enough practice where i can keep my car pointed straight ahead.

I think tom is running pro this season so i don't think he's in sts. don't know if any other subarus made the move to sts though.

Good luck to all this weekend.

Remember, loose = fast, unless of course you're so loose and fast that you're slow...

Should be fun!

I did the same thing as you the first event i got my new rates. Spun once and couldn't correct it. Seconds partial spin ended up sideways with full lock and WOT going the other direction and drifted for quite some time but finally made it out wihtout spinning. It was fun but definately slowed me down, good think I was red flagged for someobody else on course and got a rerun.

We are working towards having total online registration. Until then, you have to show up and stand in line.

And stand in line. And stand in line.
Oh, and while you stand in line, freezing your butt off, the GAGGLE of novices cut a bunch of their equally novice buds in in front of you.
And you stand in line.
And then the computer crashes.
And you still stand in line.
Did I mention you're freezing your butt off?
Still standing.
<sigh> It wouldn't be an Atlanta autocross without at least 170 cars and 60 of them not knowing what to do with that funny lookin' red flag.

</smartass who won't get a season pass so he wouldn't have to stand in line>

Note: I personally know many of the folks who do registration in Atlanta, and this is not a quip at them.

The stunnas tend to weed themselves out after an event or two. Once they figure out that 18 inch chrome dubs are not only ill suited to the task, but the announcer makes fun of them until they are off course, AND they are some 20 odd seconds off of the pace for their class, they seem to lose intrest.

But, there's always more where they came from. As long as they don't bring firearms to the event, I really only mind <this much>...

brian(has red se-r in STS) was announcing at one of the event while i was flagging the start and i remember him making fun of some kids super street banner when he was right at the start. It made me lose my attention from laughing that i forgot to flag the guy to start.

That's acutally not true at all. Just look at the results from Saturday of last year's National Tour in Ft. Myers. I beat every Suby there including Richard West. I was NEVER afraid of Subarus in the wet. Beauty of AWD, my butt.

Jesse, fear the Prot... (silence) nevermind
