Woops looks like I'm #62. Is that still a go or am I now a "WILL CALL"?
It might be a little farther than you want to drive, but the Texas A&M Sports Car Club has an event on 11/28 (http://www.tamscc.org/forum/index.php?doc=schedule).
They have a great site on an old military air base. Long courses with excellent grip.
I have run with them several times and they are a fun group. I might try to make this event. If not, I will almost certainly be at their first 2011 event because it's a fun way to kick off the season.
The NTAXS also plans to have a Winter Event in January, but I do not yet know the date or location.

If it says you're in, then you're in. The 60-person limit does not apply to S2000 drivers since it's their club, so if there are a couple of late S2000 entries, then we have to open it up for them. Occasionally, a few extra sneak in. That's okay, though.

There might be some people from the HEB ISD school board (which owns the site) visiting our event this weekend, so we ask that everyone please be careful with your actions. Do not forget to mind your speed when entering and exiting the site. Even if you have pulled off of the site and on to the road, exhibition of speed would still be attributed to our event. The same would apply to arrival at the site.
It looks like we will have an excellent turn out with a nice variety of cars. It should be a really fun event.

Just throwing this out there, but we could make things interesting next year and setup own Z/G championship (by hijacking other groups autoX's of corse). Some kind of points system with awards for first and runner up. We'd put in $1-$5 per race to pay for the awards and a reward banquet (i.e. lunch).
I've some ideas of how to set it up if anyone wants to listen to them.

Jake, it wasn't all that great....there was only like a zillion peeps there and a bunch of Hotties also ! 
...Free Dos XX's beer and a bunch of free tools !...
But no biggie.
Haha Lol !
Kidding of course....everybody ran some good times and it was a short fast course....but some of those fuggers in the Miata's & S2000's were freakin' quick !
I just tried to stay at least a couple of seconds above Gavin ( Gword ).
He blistered the track at a 37. ??? and was awesome as always !
Way to go Gavin !

Gavin ran a 37.4 fir his fastest. Chris I think you ran a 39.8, Adam ran a 39.4 I think and Jason ran a 40 dead. Idk what kirks best time was but he did hit a timer. Fugger got lucky that it didn't break lol. They said that one chick in the boxster had to pay a couple hundred bucks to replace that timer that she absolutely demolished.

Adam, you looked strong out there. I'm surprised you didn't run faster.
You still beat me out....They didn't post times in of mine in the right place....because I registered in the 2R class.....Otherwise I would have been behind you.
All in all ....very good day of driving to everyone.

Pat thanks for taking the video looks good. I am very thankful I didn't have to buy a timing light, I knocked it over but it didn't break. My car needs alot better and wider tires and a better driver would help too. 
As always it was nice hanging out with you guys.
