I have also heard that in addition to Auto Crossing being one of the most difficult motorsports there is. a lot of the "pros" (at least NASCAR) come from Karting.

 

You know Paul? I work with him at WLC. I know he used to race mazdas but now he has a small kart car and is selling is evo and just got a charger...growing older maybe? Small world ain't it.

Damn this thread exploded tonight after i walked away for a bit. Too bad the San Berdo thread cant do the same.

 

oh yeah, if any of you are curious abou tthe truck we used to run click here. http://www.speedtruck.com/ the front page is a little slow as it has a video (which is prety good!) ..... makes me miss the good ol days.

 

let them kids in the san bernardino thread talk, whille the real men are in here.

 

he he he, yeah that must be it...

see what happends when I take the auto cross out of the San Berdo MEET thread.... we need something to talk about to keep it alive.

you know its funny we have to make SUB San Berdoo threads because we talk SOOOOO much. we had to start a thread for the calendar, and now a thread for the auto cross. could you immagin how many post and veiws we would be at if the auto cross and the calendar thread were still in the main thread!?!?!?!?

he he he.

 

yeah i could use some more posts, but at least i am in triple digits, to get even more off topic, i have some corn-bread and milk to have for my snack, hot doggie i am lucky.

 

I have seen him around a few times.. I know the guys that have the car he autocrossed. Took him some time to adjust but he got fast quick.

 

Natl Champ
1986 ITB solo1
1987 DSP Prosolo
1986 GS solo2
1983 ES solo2

There are a ton of big name guys in the back of the solo rules as past autox champions.

 

So, you looking for a pro ride yet? I'd imagine we'd never hear the end of it if that happened.

 

nononono auto x is real racing , but want i mean is my sprint car racing i run for a team with many high dollor sponsers and big money and i get paid. so the auto x is way for me to take may car out just have fun with .

 

I would have to get a job first so I could write that BIG check to get in the door. Last year my buddy Dave spent $50k out of his pocket to road race. This year it should cost him only his entry fees and travel. No way I can get past that first year. Plus no way I can go road race and Jennifer not, so it would cost me twice as much as we would need two cars. Dave offered his 2nd car for Jennifer next year at a "reduced rate" and thought we could turn the RX8 into a T3 car for me but NO way am I spending that kind of money. I am happy to go chase cones on the weekend, not have to work and cars all the time and sit on my *** the rest of the time. We ran some numbers as Dave's sugar daddy wants to take him Pro and it looks like about $500k to start, not going to happen for him or me.

 

I was just playing with ya... What team do you drive for? What series do you run in?

 

Hey Jasons, could you post your final times (just the 3 runs, not fun runs) so we can post final results like last time. Thanks.

 

I'm waiting for the official results to come out. We all know ULLLOSE spanked me, no need to repost it here.

 

true, but it still would be nice to have all the times here in one place so we could refer back to them....?

It is kinda like posting pictures, maybe it will bring more people out if they know we aren't all kicking butt and taken names... But then again, I'm in this for the fun/adrenaline factor. I know I ain't gonna win anything. Just a safer place for me to push my car...

 

Mmmmmmmmmm corn bread

 

Would have never guessed it, glad to hear it.

NICE!!!


anyone besides me going to the Cal Club event on the 26th?

 

I'm probably going, though I may decide to take a break from autox that weekend (it'll be 3 weekends in a row at that point). You guys should come check out the Pro Solo next weekend. The Isleys and I will be there along with some other 8's. Side by side autox with a drag race start.

 

yeah that would be pretty coo to watch!!!

 

I just got my Cal Club points card and number...so I plan on showing up now that I can pre-register.

 

i doubt this will ever happen in cali https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...27#post1273027

My info still hasn't shown up, nor have I actually received the card in the mail. I did receive an email confirmation of my number and registration.

Havent registered yet, cause I can't
