There shouldn't be a reason why my car won't be back together in time for this. I am so pumped to finally get out there and see how I do.

Anyone have a link to the rules and classes?

Ouch @ 3 seconds. Funny, but ouch. It's all right, I'm probably going to be the worst one out of all you guys, so you're not last.

maybe or maybe not. ive learned that although it is fun to have a little competition amongst friends at these events, no matter how good or bad you do you always have fun and enjoying the car and what you are doing with it is what its really all about to me. getting better at it and beating your friends while you are having your fun is just a bonus lol. its like having your cake and eating it too at that point.

I'll register later when I know for sure I can attend, but attendance is highly likely unless things go wrong.

OK guys. I was just able to weasle out of my work meeting I had scheduled for this May 14. However, I absolutely have to be back in Flower Mound by 4:30pm for family obligations which means I'd need to leave this event by 3:00.

I definitely want to do it but would be terribly bad form to have to leave at that time? I don't want to tick anyone off or get a bad rep. What should I do? If I have to be working at that time could anyone cover a bit for me?
