so next stop is the Maryland Landlubber Pro Solo. 12 STX entries is looking good

I had a twinkling pause for making the drive, but it is too much with the back-back Texass and Californication events that follow. I'd rather go hang out with a bunch or wierdo hippy freaks than tight@ss yankees ... though they probably wish it was the opposite

STX was also the most diverse class of the event. We had six different model vehicles and not a single duplicate of any one model.
I had the same experience at Dixie! Can't explain why, but STX just seems to be very clique-free and everyone was very genuine. Will definitely have to start to put together my own car...this arrive and drive thing is difficult

So your not coming to DC?
There should be some good competition. I can't wait. What kind of 60ft do you think the Rx8 will pull up hill

I would have to drive from TX to MD and run that event, drive back to TX to run that event the following weekend, then drive to CA to run there the next two weekends in a row as well and then back to TX

no big deal, right?
