Flier129 has been prepping his Z for STU, so I hope to see him on the list soon.

But I'm still on RS3s and squishy suspension!! I've also been offered to drive the ESP GT500 in SM/CP/XP as well and that thing is always a blast. Though I do need more seat time in the Z and maybe this will motivate me to put the OSG in the car, lol.

Actually the biggest thing holding me back is that Dixie is the weekend right after a NASA event @ Road Atlanta for me.

Just checked the entry list, I see Flanagan is co-driving with you Chris? Damn, Berry is coming out to play with his new M3, man I'll see what I can do.

I still have the plenum spacer on the car, I can't seem to find stock bolts to take it off

Wait, where's the DITTO smiley? That's one of a couple of things I have to get "fixed", I believe, in my car, along with missing under tray.

I purchased the battery/brake fluid covers today on ebay, and then 10 minutes later read in the rules I don't need those for STU, oh well

I've got seats coming, hopefully this week, along with a replacement wheel for the cracked 531. No new rubber for me yet, hoping to see the 285 RE71s release soon.

Brian is driving, and hopefully storing the car for me the week after as I head to Orlando for a conference that week. I'll swing back through Chattanooga on the way home.

Wait, one of your 531s cracked? Didn't you just get those? Was there an incident or did it happen out of the blue?

Ours don't exactly feel completely round but so far no structural issues that I can see.

BryanH,
Sorry, I should have been more clear. There was damage on one of them that had previously been repaired, before I got the car. That repair appears to be cracked, and leaking air. So rather than trying to get it fixed (it is out of round) I just ordered another one to replace it.

Chris

I'll be there but the Z I bought isn't prepped yet and I sold my E36 M3 I ran the past couple of years in STU. So I'm co-driving in STR in a well prepped S2000.

Hey, mine isn't either! Come on out and play!

I've dumped a majority of my racing budget into the miata and TT events, so I won't have the OSG in the Z before Dixie. Oh well, it'll still be a blast! Signing up this weekend.

I keep saying I'm gonna hit this event and yet again doesn't look like I'm gonna make it. I'm eager to see how CS shakes out with the ND's and how Dobler is able to hold up with his recent upgrades.

I think the cap is 275.? (I'm only seeing 242 ATM)

Still not many spots left though.

Co-driver and me are in for BSP, though we may class hop if we don't make numbers.
