Who is planning on coming out to our road course AX at the stick. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yes we have elevation changes and surface imperfections (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
But who cares....

Need to test out my rebuilt rear calipers....

It would be nice to see a big turn out of 914s since the "stick" is a very central location for most folks in the Bay Area.

Quite talking about driving your car and do it.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Who might be considering coming out to play? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I'm towing the timing trailer and maybe bringing the 944 for Loren.

Birthdays, anniversaries, new tranny's will likely keep me away. However I may just show up.

Ok... Now I may have to come down. I won a car show last weekend with the Submarine and I think I need to autocross just so I can get that yucky taste out of my mouth... And just so the car doesn't start thinking it is a show car... Tentatively in... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Anyone know what the course is going to look like? If I show it will be in the big black sedan. No point in showing if its going to be a tight 914 course.

Nice...the right side looks like 2 Easter Island heads on top of each other.
There is a 0-25% chance I will be there. What time does registration start/end? Are loaner helmets available (size M)? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I think it has a little of both (911/914) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

But I think HP may have the upper hand since a lot of the straights are preceded by low speed turns.... HP and torque will be an advantage...but as always...
what we see on the map may not be what we end up with.
Look at our last course at Alamada. Appeared to be a HP course unti we set it up and slowed it down in a couple of places by order of the Chair of the event.

I am going to be helping with setup again...so I will put in my two cents worth for any advantage I think might help my little putput... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Great...now that Fritz has been forced into retirement with a AX career ending injury....we get a HP course.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
