Im gona be there in my dads stock 951..
The 914 isnt auto cross worthy, even though it would woop my dads in handling.. I dont trust the engine tho. Gona clean my injectors, put in the CD unit and see how it runs then.. Later tho. Hehe, my dad showed me the track yesterday. Looks like it might get close to 2 mins! Knowing 3 com, I should be getting into 3rd gear (in the turbo.. 2nd goes to 60) . Saterday will me fun!! Hope to see some of you there! Brad? Andrew |

I'll be there in the Subaru. It just got new ContiContactExtremes or some other stupid name. We'll see how it does :-) Will be interesting.

I do and beater is right. When the racing tires start to go away you might as well put it on the trailer, unless you like doing high speed spins. Mine, last time at 3Com, with a corded rear tire flat out in 3rd, was maybe as good as yours at the Marina! The surface at 3Com really tears up tires. |

Looks about the same as the San Diego reagon events at Jack Murphy (Qualcom). I like the airport ones a lot too. very well documented though!

Wonder what software was used to create the map?
Must be some form of CAD system. |

Randal,
If you're tires don't come today....show up anyway with your car. I've got a set of Hoosier slicks that I use as practice tires at Thunderhill. Their Hoosier slicks and I know you run Goodyear's but hey....you get to run. The tires are R60 compound, which makes them alot harder to heat up than the R210's you usually run with your Goodyear's, but at least you get to play. I'll pack them in the trailer tonight. They are on 15x7 cookies like yours. See you tomorrow morning. Bill P. |
