Sorry but once again I'll be in the field for May's event. Jun's event will fall on the last weekend that my family will be here. Jul's event I'll be in the states trying to find an event to take the Hot Rod to. I'll be there in Aug, Sep, & Oct.
James can I ask a HUGE FAVOR???? Can you see Silke and ask for about 10-15 1on1Motorsports posters for me???

Another "participant" is just about finished ... the timing gear ... finished the whole circuit board and box, just have to solder the cables to the plugs and it's ready to go ....

I'll be there...drake with an 04 Blue GTO (Not robbie that was there last year sporadically) and a Mustang owner was keen on participating soley on the Autocross. So it looks like we'll have quite a few big butts racing this year. I think we'll need a v8 trophy since there's no way in hell we really can compare with the small cars.

I DO hope the weather will not be as bad as the forecast....
Die nächsten Tage
Am Donnerstag gibt es neben Sonnenlücken auch immer wieder Schauer bei 20 Grad, ab Freitag gibt es immer wieder Regen bei Temperaturen um 13 bis 16 Grad.
Donnerstag Freitag Samstag Sonntag
13/20°C 9/13°C 9/16°C 10/15°C
as far as the small cars, Val was occasionally as fast or faster as the small cars, it has allso somewhat to do with the driver
You can't JUST blame the car
The go karts allso showed that

James, when ever you get a chance
jeejee, you are right, the driver will make the biggest difference. I was at a BIG weight disadvantage with the karts but hey it was a BLAST!!!!!
All, are we going to do the karts this year again????? Does anybody have a car that we all can use to prove the theory "it's the driver not the car"??

now if there is a little rain then I may get the chance to beat up the cones with the Terrano ? since I am not too busy on the other side, think they may be able to handle it a half hour without me...

terrano ??
shouldn't you do a "moose" test first to see if it will go round a corner ?
at least in the rain you have the 4 wheel drive "advantage" like Stefss audi
