Welcome to New England...and quit bitchin'

I know how you feel. I got my car out for about an hour yesterday and was thrilled to remember how well a 914 drives. Then, I got it home just before the next downpour.

Hopefully, next weekend will be better. There is an AX on Sunday and it never rains at an autocross, right?

Scott, maybe you should come on down and join us. A few of us refugees from PCA autocross have been competing with FCSCC (Fairfield County Sports Car Club). Their site is in Waterbury, CT. It should only be about a hour from you.
