Kevin,

Thanks for the update. We hope to see you on Mother's Day with Mother along, but she doesn't want to drive!

And, she'll be motoring up there in her own car just in case it's not quite as much fun for her to watch as it is for us to drive.

Looking foward to it! Now I've gotta figure out which digital camcorder to buy....And find some vinyl magnetic numbers!!!!

Should we expect the same numbers as last time, or is it a new one each time until we're official?

How do we join the club, and how bad is the hazing ceremony?

Don and Adam

Hey, I've thought about trying to talk my mom into autocrossing her E46 3-series (with me as tire-warmer of course!) sometime, that's a good idea...she'd like that, I'll remember that for next year... :) She's actually got some first-place ES-L trophies from back in the day, driving my dad's VW Jetta.

I have never needed more than two digits plus a "1" at any event...pick your two digits and get a matching "1" and you should be good. I carry a roll of blue tape just in case for emergencies.

It is a little bit sad how quiet this board is these days compared to last year... :( Who's going to Sebring next weekend?

Just an FYI, I just posted my rollbar for sale in the classifieds...I'd prefer to sell it to somebody local for obvious reasons... :)

Hey Mark- Selling your roll bar? Is that so you can mount the cage? Gonna be at the Sebring event the first weekend in June?

Hey Trey, it'll be good to see you again too.

Yeah, I sort of abandoned SCCA this year. I let our membership expire. I have only been running with MSCC and the occasional PCA event. Jason tried to see if I would head down to Sebring this weekend, but i already had plans.

Sheesh, May is almost over already!

I cant make it:-( The wife is prego, i dont have tyres, and im monving to st. augustine the next week.
Sure not wasting any time there are ya ;) Good luck with the move.

Yep, and my OEM seats and seatbelts (bought new last year) are posted in the classifieds too. And my old walk-behind lawn mower is on craigslist. And anything else I can find to sell to help pay for my cage and seat/harness install will be posted for sale soon!

I was planning to head down to Sebring but it looks like I am going to have to miss it after all.. :( I did finish stripping the interior this weekend...looks rather spartan now with no carpet, insulation, or trim panels other than the dash...

Q: How many diapers can you buy for the price of a set of R-compounds?

A: Not nearly as many as you would like to think...

Good luck!!
