I think so. I may not be at enough events to earn many points, or even be good enough to show any really good times, but I am looking in to how i can make it happen. I had an ear to ear smile on my face for the rest of the weekend. Thank you to Keith and Cesar. ( and Cesar, steph must have told the 'spin out' story 100 times already)
I would rather do it in another car though. Something about taking my daily driver to the course seems a little scary. So I have convinced steph to sell her MR2 once the paint is on it. ( anyone need a cheap commuter?) Now we are in the process of looking for another car to buy and beat up.

in all honesty... youll have much better luck with a second generation.... since the first gen is carburated, they are very unreliable.. and the fc has much better handling, fuel injected, comforts like power windows, power steering, (1st gen has neither).. and you can find good ones for around $2k-3k..... id recommend an s5 (1989-1991) gxl.....

Keith, I'll email you the hi-res pics over the weekend.

Loren, the only thing I did to my picture was add a border, but I do adjust my iso and saturation on my camera manually before taking the pictures. I'm pretty sure your camera has a "manual mode" where you can manually adjust everything to your likeng.

Did anyone else get a sh*t load of rock ships from this run? My hood and fender is covered in rock chips, been touching up my car all day today.

congradulations...did you pick up a used copy fo Forza as well? We need a fourth memeber in the Rotorlution car club before we can start competing. Casey picked up a used copy, Loren bought a new copy...both about the same price.

game for the girlies is Arcade Classic Unplugged.

vipers you little **** head..... "i am gona have it about early feburary" then you go and buy it hours later.

well congrats on the x box. I to am a Play Station person. but I just couldent pass up the nearly half the cost, and the fact that we can play keith and loren on line. we will have tons of fun playing online.

yes we will be x boxing tonight.... I suspect the three of us will be starting earlyer though.

Jesse still needs to set it all up and set up on line, so I predict he wont be ready till around 11.
