Well, either I´m dang blind or nobody has brought this up yet...

Is anybody gonna be there this weekend?

As I am gonna be in the vicinity anywas on early friday already I´d be happy to lend a hand with setting up etc.

Otherwise, if anybody gets there early maybe a little cruise?

Only shame, no F-Body here anymore :(

So let´s start the list -

Coming to Bitburg:

Rampage

I am on the fence right now. Is it drag or roadcourse? What are the costs involved? How many runs do you get?

The main reason I want to go is to meet/greet. What is the most prominently attended day? What time is it going on for open runs?

Drag & AutoX in parallel, entry fee is 10€ ($ for ID card holders), driving fee is 25€ (again $ for ID card), which covers driving for all three days ... unlimited runs, if you have time to come up for Friday, you'll most likely get a lot of runs in already ...
Saturday and Sunday should probably have quite a few folks there ...
Track is open from 10 through 18 (with a lunch break)...

Make sure you stop bye the timing trailer ;)

Great Weekend, Jin sorry about your CV, but the Smart car was AWSOME:) How did the talk with the team go?

Roy, We missed you out there brother:( I did my best yet on Autocross and I pulled a 12.6 out of the hat, sorry I didn't get to talk to the Chrysler guy that was playing yesterday, but didn't realize you were a forum guy. I'm crashing now, going on about 3 drunken hours of sleep from last night, my advice, if your single, or married and want to have a fun time, camp out on the 7th and 8th, I'll be doing it again and all these guys on here know I bleed blue, but I just LOVE all cars. The showing from Mighty wasn't all that great, maybe 5-6 and you guys had about 4-6 but fun was had by all.

Chevyfreak, sorry that it didn't work out for you but was good seeing you know the way there, I get stood up alot by forum guys who don't follow up and take thier running cars with F1 blowers *cough silas* ;-)

When I get around to it I'll post some pic's, yes I have pic's of the F-body's:) And the SRT 4 off the side of the hill:) I think KC10A got like 20 runs in on Sat and Sun, I know it was alot, oldboy is consistent, that's for sure:)

Damn good looking car too:)

bahn about summed it all up. Congrats on the 12.6! It figures you would snag that after I leave.

I will add that this was a much larger event than expected. I don't know how many cars ran, but I would guesstimate around 60+ on Sunday alone. There had to have been 300 people there also. I may be off, but either way it was bigger than anticipated.

Also, it is imperative that you show up between 0900-1000 for tech inspection or you will not get to race. Thats what happened to me. :(

Normally, tech inspection and registration is all days Saturday and through 10 or 11 on Sunday, but we were a bit low on helpers this weekend ...
60 cars wouldn't be large ... I guess we should have had well over 100 different cars running in total over the three days, haven't done any stats yet though ...

:fruit: Oh what a weekend :) :fruit:

Numbers first: Best run was a 13.445 @ 105,63 with traction control on

Runs with no traction control ended in the 14s... Read: I need stickies :)

If I had not partied from Friday to Saturday 04.30 am my reaction times on Saturday would have been better :pat:
Anyway, I ran a consistent 13.5x to 13.6x - and I am satisfied with that on a bone stock car ;)

Met a few new people and talked some smack, greetz to the Mustang and Trans Am dudes and of course KC10A, always a pleasure to meet you :)

I hope my parts get in before the June event so I can get a go at some high 12s maybe.

Ride safe and see you in June hopefully!

:ok: Ram :P

This weekend was great fun at the autocross/slalom!

Saturday's course was very difficult - very tight and technical. I don't think I had a clean run all day! :oops:

Sunday's course was made for the SRT-4... except for that last part. :roll:

I was surprised the Smart Car handled so well and didn't roll over!

There were a few injuries: Josh's distributor, James' CV joint and my, ummm... fender. :oops:

I'm trying to figure out how to fit me, four kids, four race tires, tools, ice chest, chairs and maybe the dog into my SRT-4 so we can make it in June... Side Exit Exhaust and a trailer hitch are next!

We all missed you Roy! Take care and get back out here soon.
