I haven't either, but **** does happen. I've seen so much random violence growing up in the city, as I'm sure you have, that I know it doesn't matter who you are or what you're doing cause **** happens for no good reason. Its just a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

leave work? who does that? I got a nice lil mattress and fridge sitting next to my desk. honestly, it probably would have been easier to do that than go home everyday, kill me.

In 2010 the first winter event (non-points exhibition) was on 1/31. The first official AutoX was 3/28. I don't believe that they've released the 2011 schedule yet, but here is a link to last years.

Otherwise, it was good to see some new faces at TJ's yesterday. Quite a few of us AutoX with the Philly SCCA. For anyone interested in seeing what your Evo is capable of, doing an AutoX is a great way to learn the car and to hone your driving skills. We could always use more Evo's to compete with.

No, I wasn't really trying to make that inference, but I am typically more focused with besting you, Pete and Chu each event (not that it always happens). We all have about the same amount of experience, and talking smack can be very enjoyable. Considering that the other Evo's in BSP are nationally competitive cars/drivers, I need someone to compare myself against. I'm still kind of salty about Kenny beating me in my own car. I will continue to seek vengeance next season. :evil laugh:

I may be down for March 5th, depending on how cold it is.

Dude, you had at least a second on me at the last event. I thought that was vengeance aplenty.

any one herd pros or cons of the Hankook Ventus R-S3 ? They look like a aggressive summer tire. From what i read people like them. Just trying to find a decent summer/ auto x tire

^ I haven't heard to much about them. I know there is a couple of guys in the region that run them and they like them. None of those people drive evo's though. I think as far as ultimate grip their right up there with the StarSpec, I think the Dunlop has the edge in wet traction though. Not sure where I'm getting that from, I may have just made it up...

star specs have terrible wet traction... my encounter with a wall of tires gave me this information.
