From Speeddemon32:

Limo tint still lets light through..... (i have limo tint also, but you cant see it any more under the banner).... but if you were to put a solid banner on then of course it lets NO light trough. but I guess me being 6'2" makes it hard to see under the banner. its not a big deal, I just have to turn my head or slouch down at times.

Spiceboy, Xrider, Friday after work is really not a good time for me, as I will be getting ready for the autocross, and going to bed early so we can wake up at 5:00. Thursday would be a lot better. if not, maybe next week.... maybe even sunday if we dont already have plans.


OHHHH CRAP! that was me Speeddemon32... I am on MeShells computer. my bad.

well, if you wanna go together i can wait, but if it'll be a long time before we can make it together, then i'd like to go sooner. i'd really like to have that awesome banner before saturday . lol.

umm, i know about my limo tint strip, i know that although it's very dark and it still lets light in, the signals are still very hard to see at night.

Yeah, rain or shine. Running in the rain is interesting, but working sucks. I'm still thinking about going Sunday, so I hope you guys aren't too tired after the practice to show up to the "real" event.

OOooh... a Magnet thingy sounds tempting!
Where can I get magnet? I've got alot of time so I could pick some up and head over if you'd like.
And do I get to choose my number?

How much do you think it'd cost me altogether?

Good news for me... My wife decided that our daughter qaulifies as one of the girls and is taking her this weekend to the spa in Santa Barbara. So now I will have the RX8 and a free pass to play all weekend. I am not entered in the practice on Sat but I will come up hang out, I will be available at a reasonable rate to give tips.
I will be there Sun AM to run in BS, hope some of you make it both days.

Good news for all of us. I'll exchange some beers at my house and a Patriots game after the autox for some tips. I'm gonna need them since all these other guys have gone out and got cool tires, sways and stuff.

As for me, I just my uglys back on. I'm renting my rims out for a couple of days if anyone is interested in running Volks. You curb em you buy em though....

Newer Leftovers from the Prosolo in KS, 24 runs on them, so they will be real good.

Cheer up, my wife wont be there so you wont get beat by a girl again.

Damn, that hurts. SCCA should have a trash talking competition.

I don't mind losing to you guys. It's nice to have good drivers to guage yourself against.

at least I have a cool umbrella. are you evben allowed to take an umbrella out there with you?


cool Jason, it will be nice to hang out with you and get some tips. I am sure everyone here would like to meet you and MP5.

If we are not doing anything maybe we will head down sunday to, but I would not be suprised if sunday is already booked.



CLLCLE, Magnet can be found at S&W Plastics here in San Bernardino. yes you would get ti pick your magnet. if your gona do it, today would be the day as tomorrow I will be getting ready for saturday. I f you can not make it out today, I will TRY to get over there and get it, but no promises, I work till 5, and getting over there before then is hard to do.

damn fricken rain...yes, it is a definate for Saturday. News report I heard said it was going to be a hard, fast storm. In and out quickly, but since we are going to be there in the early part of the day, we will get rain, and we will have wet surfaces to deal with.

I know we don't have a lot of room in our 8's, but if someone could bring an EZ-up or something, would be nice. I want to have some pics of this event so bad, and setting up the tripods under an awning would make it easier to get some good pics.

If not, I guess we can always line up the spectators along the front row and you can shoot pics through your windsheilds while sitting in your cars. .

Scotty/Ullose/MP5, good question Casey posed, can we bring umbrellas out with us on course (while working)?

MeShell is nice enough to bring her truck and my dads E-Z up. so yes we will have at least one EZ up there, is there anyone else that can bring one? I know what its like when there is ONE EZ up, and 400 people trying to get under it. having more then one would be nice.
