I need to check the Solo2 site for the run order for Sunday.

EDIT: BSP runs 5th and works last (6th).
BS runs first group after lunch (4th) and will be working for the BSP run group.


Just registered for Sunday
Jason's, whens the next SD event? The NFL playoff game should make that section of the world a little crazy this coming weekend.

Yeah, Chargers vs. Patriots! Must remember to set the DVR, game will be awesome.

We generally don't get our autox schedule sorted out till mid-January down here... so, yeah, probably 1st event in Feb.

I will probably be in the area around March visiting the parents. Mind if I bring my dad and his 06 S2000 to play?

Can't drive my RX8 2500 miles from TX

What time are you guys meeting at the speedway on Saturday? I'd like to walk the course with you and see if I can remember it. Is anyone doing the cruise too? Just trying to figure out if I should just go to auto x or do both.

I would agree with that also because this year it is a full season for everyone, where last season a lot of people came in and missed the first few.

We have the same "problem" in NorCal...too many events to choose from!

Man, what a high class "problem"

Now, if we could just improve our sites, up here...well, we're working on it.

Sherry, I should be at the track all day, but have committed myself to leading the cruise from Pirate City, and then go down to the speedway around lunch time. Depends on how much time you want to devote to the day.

If you want to forego the meet, and want to walk the course in the morning....course walks usually open around 745 and close prior to the first run group..usually around 815/830.

If that is too early in the morning for you...show up to the meet, or show up to the speedway prior to/around lunch.

I would be in agreement with the suggestion of dropping 3.

You know KW is going to lead the run on Sat. It is the only time all weekend he will be in 1st place.

I guess I was too excited to jump on a joke that I didn't read your post properly. I stand corrected...hopefully in 2nd or 3rd position at the end of the day.

I spent some time getting the points spreadsheet ready for the new season... and decided to try out Google spreadsheets. It's a pretty cool idea and has most of Excel's capabilities, but is web hosted. I can update it from any web browser and the link will always have the latest info:

http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?k...s-u1RPAzVbOnFQ

I can also invite people by email address to "colloborate" which allows them to edit it as well. We should add this link to the first post of the thread.

After that I decided to check out Google calendar and made one for all our SoCal Autox dates:

http://www.google.com/calendar/embed...dar.google.com

Yes, I have too much free time and I'm a bit obsessed with Google. But hey, they make good stuff.

Jason, saw that you were able to get #808 for Cal Club....congrats.

BTW, has anyone ever autocrossed in the snow....reason I ask, is that it was snowing in Fontana when I left for work this morning...yup, snow, and it was sticking to the ground. I made sure I took some pictures before I left this morning...I was so thinking about staying off work today to go get some snow pics....but no, I'm at work, and it is bright and sunny in City of Industry.

hey guys..

It looks like I will be missing most of you guys tommorow unless someone is running in the morning. I unfortunately need to be back at work for the afternoon so the only run group that fit the bill was SK1. Sorry I will miss you all as I definitely like soaking up as much knowledge as I can from all you guys..

Good luck!
Ken
