      Nope.

      I'm hoping to have some money set aside for a fall track event. This spring has been kind of brutal to the checkbook.

      I may hit an autocross or two to get a little fix, though.

        I think you would actually have to stop your car, put it in reverse and jockey it back and forth a few times to get around some of the corners if it were a MAC event.

          I don't think the MAC crew would like picking up that many cones. I'll try to stay with the Vette guys. They like bigger, faster courses.

          I did go to one that had a corner that was giving me trouble. Too fast and the front end would plow using the whole track and then some. I got faster if I came in to the corner, rev'd it up, and dump the clutch to get the back end swinging.

                Great. It will be another good time.

                You might want to view the Session 2 Part 2 video. Your a star. Watch the second time into turn 3.

                    We won't be able to make this trip. The replacement body and suspension are still on the truck from Factory Five Racing..
                    Good news is that the frame was able to be pulled and is spot-on!

                    Y'all be carefull and have fun down there... It's a great track for observers as well since you can see the entire track from the grand-stands. Only down side is that the only shade from the sun is what you brought with you.

                      I'm jealous. I could pretty much take a nap, read Harry Potter and do my taxes in the time it takes my car to get from 10 to 1.

                          I got a message from Barry, He's going to make it. I am assuming with his new Black car. It sounds like another AIX mustang will be there. If Chris goes, it couls be uber fun watching three AIX cars duke it out on a relatively ( to BIR & RA) small track.

                            Yeah...provided we're not forced to sit through driver's meetings the entire time they're running.

                                MAM was great. Kyle and Paul, Steve, Steve, Scott, Brian had a pretty damn good time.

                                Steve(92mnstanger) won the award for "Most Improved Driver". Congrats. I just couldn't drive off the course intentionally just to go after the award like you did.
