I'll be in the blue CRX with yellow #33 numbers. Drop by and say hi if you have a chance.

Morning only for me, I have a Superbowl to watch in the PM!
Doh, I knew there was something else going on Sunday. Oh well, I'd rather be autocrossing anyways. I'll swing by and say hi for sure.

Have fun out there!
Same here. The suspension will be the hands of The Shock-Shop for Chris to work his magic. Did you end up sending your coilovers in too?

Thanks Geoff. Today was a blast but it sure was slippery out there during the morning session. I was having to grab 3rd gear pretty early to actually get some power down. Hopefully my two spinouts today satisfy my yearly quota. It's pretty amazing how much talent there is in this region. I definitely need to work on the skillz and finally force myself to do some left foot braking.

You haven't seen anything yet. Just wait until the SCCA events start. Beating Umino is pretty impressive, looks like you will give some the STU/STX guys more then they bargained for. Good job!

I think I got the lapping day bug like we were talking about at the end of last season out in Shelton. I'm getting new spring rates, valving, and a damping curve to match some NT01s.

I never really had a chance to beat any of your serious STU/STX guys anyways...

I might have to give it a try out here some time after I fix up the car some. I've only autoXed a couple times

Eh time for some road course fun...lemme get me some better brake pads though because my PFZ aren't cutting it...hell I had them fade when I went on a spirited Belfair run. Oh and the power bug should hit next...it's a bad one for sure

Congrats, man! It was nice meeting you there. If work allows, I'll be at the next event on Feb 21.

I found it ironic that of all the cars there, it was the AWD WRXes and Evos that were spinning out the most (myself included!).
