I would watch out for the return of a west coast DS TypeR driver.... Seems with Bartek gone, everyone smells the blood in the water.

Besides "that guy", there's another DS TypeR driver up here that could get it done...easily.

I may have to forward this thread on to Bart in hopes of getting him out of the CS Solsti!

You gonna let everyone talk smack like this JT?

Haha they can talk smack all they want, it's quite obvious after this weekend that the ITR is definitely not the car to have in DS. If a Hack like me that ends up second last in BS at a tour can place second in DS at nationals then it's a pretty sure fire answer.

No smacktalk directed at JT, just noting that a multi time National champ (Honda guy) is back in a familiar ITR DS car...if he decides to run it at Nationals, he'd have to be in the mix, for sure.

The other guy is a local in my region who has shown the speed to win...he just needs to do it two days in a row...

It's OK, a little smack talk does a body good. Besides, I like to stir the pot.

JT, we all know that you would have finished much better if you weren't trying to repaint that car orange one cone at a time.

Nice to meet all you guys!
I guess you're back in your Audi JT? Milwaukee NT Entry List

Best of luck this weekend.

Yea the owner of the BS car is unavailable so i'm going to see if my TT holds up to 6 more runs of autocross. I'm using the tires that we were gonna throw away so it might be interesting haha. I did one event after last years nationals in the car to secure my local title but once that was in the bag i just was a car ***** for a bit. Should be fun!
