Here is the new & old course.
The Tire class will probably be more fun than any of the other classes. They probably got rid of the crossover so they can have 3 cars on the course instead of 2 with the cross because there's already a good amount of people signed up already.

ER's classes are confusing. Or maybe that's normal for SCCA types of groups?

That's SCCA classing. To be properly classed, you'll have to refer to the rule book but most Z drivers should class themselves CS, STR, or BSP. Most of us aren't competitive enough and our cars aren't exactly set up for the registered classes so it really doesn't matter. Classing only begins to matter once you get good enough to take away podium spots from the faster guys.

Did anyone make it to the cars and coffee Sat morning? I saw a few Z's but didn't recognize any of them. I went on a cruise with some subaru guys around Sherman. A ton of nice twisty roads over there. It was really fun until I got left in the dust by the subbies.

Q, I can't believe that you let the Subbies dust you !

WTF ? you must be getting soft.

You need to start AutoX'ng that G37. I will kick *** out there.

Start hanging with the Z's & G's more.

-------

On another note.....I had a blast at Mesquite today with Scott, Eric, Dusty, Brandon, and Chris P.

Course was slippery and tough. Here is my fastest run for the day....a 32.3?? ...Good enough to beat Chris P....but not enough to beat Scott.

Brandon smoked all the Z's with a 31.9?? with the AWD Subbie....good job Brandon. ....well not enough to beat Scott.

How come there is no thumbnail image for Youtube vid ? ....... Nevrmnd !


Mesquite tower is a landmark for the stadium....Ii have a feeling that we will have several events out there if Crandall doesn't pull thru.
