not sure if I am gonna make it. weather is looking sketchy... and I was wanting to get trailored up. I don't trust this new clutch... anyway, my truck/trailor guy doesn't know now if he can take me up 
Sucks.

Btw, the weather isn't sketchy. 30% of scattered t-storms, but only after 4pm. Low 80s will be nice, too...much better than the mid-90s I was expecting.

If I was running an ACT... I wouldn't hesitate. But, whatever.
Not to mention, yea, its street/daily-driven, but not daily dragraced on C16.
I am sure I'd be pretty competitive and be required to make quite a few passes... not gonna do that making the power I am making on an un-proven clutch WITHOUT a way to get home, thats just stupid. I went out on a limb installing this thing... and simply, I am not happy with the results.
As for the rest of the car... willing and ready.
I'd say it's too early to call whose gonna be having the excuses... why don't we actually WAIT 'til the dust settles.

Posted this on the other thread:
Not sure what tracks you've raced on, but most won't continue if the track is wet REGARDLESS if its raining or not:
weather.com has this to say:
Friday Aug 19
7pm showers 30% chance of rain
8pm showers 30% chance of rain
9pm showers 30% chance of rain
10pm cloudy 20% chance of rain
11pm cloudy 20% chance of rain
Saturday
12am cloudy 20% chance of rain
1am cloudy 20% chance of rain
2am cloudy 20% chance of rain
3am cloudy 30% chance of rain
4am t-storms 30% chance of rain
5am t-storms 30% chance of rain
6am t-storms 30% chance of rain
7am cloudy 30% chance of rain
8am cloudy 20% chance of rain
9am cloudy 20% chance of rain
10am cloudy 20% chance of rain
11am cloudy 20% chance of rain
12pm cloudy 20% chance of rain
1pm cloudy 20% chance of rain
2pm cloudy 20% chance of rain
3pm cloudy 30% chance of rain
4pm t-storms 30% chance of rain
5pm t-storms 30% chance of rain
6pm t-storms 30% chance of rain
All it takes is one light shower anywhere in the next 24hrs, and the event will be majorly effected. So... yea, in my book its doesn't look good.
Just for the record, the Eastcoast WRX shootout is next weekend, I won't be going to that for the same reasons... if these reasons occur (weather/trailor). EVO's have nothing to do with it.

Al (11.0 evo below) and turbotrixs (10.4 EVO below) dropped out which left the heads up class with the following:
And a Subie won the bracket class. Think what you will...

PS- there was a Subie wagon running 11.5s @ 123 or so, but an EVO driver turned him in for not having a cage, so he was tossed.
