So who am I going to see out there in 2010?

I currently plan on being at:

San Diego NT
El Toro Pro
Western States Championships - Wendover
Wendover Pro
Packwood Pro
Packwood NT
Pro Finale
National Championships

No more running a 350Z for me, I'll be in the new BS (old AS for those out of the loop)!

 

Man, you're driving all the events I'm not going to be at. I'm currently planning:

Dixie NT*
Texas NT
Lincoln Pro*
Eastern States Championships
Blytheville Pro
Pro Finale*
National Championships

Asterisks are events that will be in flux based on work schedule and/or travel budget.

I'm also out of the 350Z racket, will be picking up an S2000 in the next few weeks, but I'm taking it straight to STR, skipping over the new BS.

 

Nice, goodluck! Yeah, living on the west coast, those other events are a little too far. S2k should be potentially the class car along with the miata. I guess see ya in Lincoln!

 

Unless things dramatically change, I'll be in CS in my 350Z.

I'll have to see how many events I can get to this coming year.

 

Thanks, and good luck to you too! Most of my events are focused in the center of the country for the same reason. I'd really like to run the SD Tour one of these years though.

But yeah, see ya in Lincoln, hopefully. If not, it means I've sucked it up too hard in 2010 to justify the expense :P

 

Just booked my plane ticket out of LAX to Portland, and back to Long beach! I'll be driving down to the San Diego tour, flying home, then flying back for the pro-solo then driving home!

Next up, book tickets for Utah!

 

I may, if all goes well, be hitting the same schedule Ruff. Pretty sure I've decided to go with STR, and hope to pick up an 04 Enth tomorrow

 

Awesome and goodluck in STR. I'll be in BS in a Solstice GXP Z0K. It'll be nice to meet more fellow Z racers.

 

Best of luck with the new Z Chris. Hope things work out for you in STR.

 

Thanks Chike, not sure how much I'm going to hit yet. I'm now in California and expecting a kid in October! So we'll see what these changes have on my racing for the year. Might be another year of little racing depending on how quickly our house in CO sells.

 

Simplifying my autocross by running STR this year in an 07 Miata. Keeping the 350 as a daily driver. FWIW, this is a whole new experience, no torque but lots of turn in.

At Dixie I see there is a 2 driver 350Z in BSP, Al is the only Z driver in CS with his new 370Z and a 350Z (2 drivers?) and a 300Z in SSM. I'll be cheering for them from wherever I'm working.

 

Runnign C stock this year
I'll be at....
Finger Lakes
DC Pro
NE Divisionals
Trying to make nationals out in Nebraska (need to work out transportation)

On a new note, I have new local competition this year. Keith Scala's nationaly prepped RX8 has a co driver.... some guy named Mark Daddio. Is he any good, they say he's an alien?

 

Headed to San Diego, talk to everyone later!

 

Signed up for DC today with my co driver Joe

 

^ Good luck Liam!

 

Are you still going to make the NE Divisional Liam? I'll be there with a co-driver in STX.

-Chike

P.S. Have you run your Z in STR yet Chris?

 

Chike, I ran one local event in Colorado before I moved, underprepped and got slaughtered

My racing budget for the year is pretty much shot as we are still trying to sell the CO house. I'm planning on a tour or two and Nationals, but not in my car. Might get to start running some local events if the house sells sometime soon.

 

Gotcha Chris. Well I hope the house in CO sells for you guys - I'm sure that's extra stress you don't need when you have a little one on the way.

Best of luck at Nats in whatever car/class you end up competing in. I'm taking a break this year as I develop my car for STX. I should be at Nats again in 2011.

 

So how is everyone's season so far? I haven't logged on here in nearly three months; been busy with a new job (4 months ago), and autoxing.

San Diego NT - 3rd autox ever in the Solstice, took 2nd in a tough crowd to the 09 National Champ.

El Toro Pro - Could not figure out the courses at all and my second pro ever, finished third in another tough crowd.

Western States Championships - Wendover - short story car broke out of the gate and we werent able to fix it 100%, clawed my way back up to 2nd.

Wendover Pro - first national event win, again against a tough crowd

Packwood Pro - up coming with another tough crowd, currently the national pts leader in BS, gotta try to strengthen that lead.

Packwood NT - not sure I'll make this event now due to work, but I would like to

Pro Finale + National Championships - hope to make these events, thats the plan, hoping work doesn't get in the way... I have a legitimate shot at both these!
