^ So, I guess I shouldn't ask you about going to the autocross event the MSCCNC is putting on? Well, I know for sure I'll be there, I think Lance signed up and Eric planned on it too!

Ahh but that is a Saturday, my New Years resolution is to not work weekends...DOH already failed that one
SO what's the rules of the autocross. Do i need a helmet or any other special equipment?

^Eh, letting someone else race the car (although I don't think she'll actually do it), letting someone borrow a transmission, what's the difference really? Actually, Carl never borrowed the tranny anyway, but the offer still stands, haha.
Yeah let me know about Sweden, I might have to use some of my tax return to go.

Well I did my good deed for the day.
Saw on old dude in a white GSL-SE on the way home from class tonight parked on the side of the road. I went by him, turned around and went back to ask him what was up. Turns out he flooded it, I told him I could take out the plugs and turn the engine over and put em back in and it will start, he babbled on telling me, this is a rotary engine...obviously he didnt know who he was talking to Ended up towing him around and we got it started and he went on his way. Just thought i'd share. It was a CLEAN white 84 GSL-SE too with a new motor.
Now hopefully the turbo rotary gods will be good to me

I sure wouldnt mind a control class. Half of the battle is experiencing a slide or severe oversteer. After you know what it feels like, and have experience getting out of it they become fun. Before that they can be scary. It would be nice to push the car way over the edge in a controlled setting to see exactly how it acts. Ive kicked the back end loose before, but nothing that I could sustain or in which I felt completely comfortable.
