Best of luck to any brother (former brother rather) rotards who make it up. I'll be chained to T&S per usual for the weekend.

Good luck to all, and please dont light up those change engine lights ladies!

Coke, MazdaSixguy and I are doing an Auto-x at Ripken that day and maybe wont leave until afternoon. If you don't mind waiting for us that seems like a plan too. We'll just need to work it out.

I went last year and won in the show for my category (originally was mazda but they had too many trophies and not enough cars so I got best rx7 lol)

If I get my car fixed in time Ill be there again this year but if not best of luck to everyone racing/showing - I had a hell of a time last year!!

I'm planning on driving my subaru down and have room if anyone wants a ride. I think shot gun is already booked.

Coke... Not sure how late man. If you're not doing anything in the morning why not come to the auto-x?

Hey I think that I am running in the first heat and Rotor vs Piston is running in te 3rd heat. 3rd heat runs in the afternoon so i think Coke will have more than enough time to make it to Ripken and then off to Hyper-Fest after the autox event.

I'm wanting to come back and get the Scooby for the trip to WV... a little extra driving but worth it for the trip IMO. Hmmm, anyone that is still around that plans to go tomorrow please PM me your cell.

No problem. Most (everyone?) local to us didn't go and I wasn't feeling up to it yesterday myself so I just hung out here.

Just got back. First real time on Summit Main and only 2nd time taking the FD to track so I had a LOT to learn. First day went by pretty poorly, but by the middle of the 2nd day I was doing a lot better, passing a lot more, etc. Oil temps were holding me back -- I was only running 7 lbs of boost (slooow) on the stock twins and still I had to ease off after a few minutes and let people pass me because of the oil temps. Pisses me off. Gonna have to do something about that before the next event in 3 weeks. It's really difficult to concentrate on learning a new track when you're constantly worrying about your stupid car overheating!

I had a good time flagging. The weather was awesome, much better than the VIR in February lol. I'll be flagging at VIR in a few weeks too, its gonna be HOT.

I met one FD owner over at the Jefferson Circuit, red '93 with an Apexi RX-6, looked really nice. Blown coolant seals though, lol.

You looked good out there Armitage, I was wondering if you had the boost turned down or something because the car was moving sloooww, haha.

Thanks, yea it felt awful slow and it was even slower when I had to let off in the straights because of the high oil temps. I'll be running the Shenandoah with the MB club the weekend of the VIR event but I hope to make it down there to another sometime this year. After I upgrade to dual coolers that is
