Hopefully one of the locals will keep y'all updated. Right now, I'm not sure what I'll be driving. Matteucci and Ramey decided to run SM because there weren't enough victims in DSP, which means I got the boot from the car. Of course, Brian doesn't tell me this until friggin' [i]yesterday[/i], and tries to placate me by saying that I can run John Scheier's M3 in SM (it's actually a BSP car).... uh, yeah. Sure. Whatever. :mad:
I'll see if I can't find something that's more my style. :p FS, here I come!!

It wouldn't have mattered anyway Karen. I just got my carbon fiber shift knob installed, so SM is a lock for me at this point.

You can't switch to DSP, Karen?
I was likely my fault (and Jack's) we switched to SM for contingency payout, when DSP went to four people the potential contingency payout (for both Ramey and Teucci) dropped $200.
If you switch to DSP, Jack and I will switch back to DSP, to get the contingency back up.
Oh, and I'm laughing about the beaker thing.

I did registration at SanDiego....
The biggest hold up was people switching from Hoosier to Kumho on their reg forms... there were some class switches, and then that just changes your work assignment.

Well, the manuevering was fast and furious on Saturday morning, but it ended up Ramey in SM and Brian in DSP, along with Jack, Brian, Karter and Richard. I stayed in SM, driving John Scheier's BSP bitch, a lightly prepped silver M3.
I drove like complete ass on Saturday, but I pulled my head out enough on Sunday to challenge John's times, and even look halfway respectable! :) I got 4th and final trophy in SM, behind John. Eric Hyman was second and Ramey won, by a mile. Jack was leading DSP on Saturday, but fell to Matteucci's "sawzall special," but just barely.
Other notable Subaru performances -- Alex Ponce de Leon taking STU and Todd Milstead in the yella WRX taking the STX win. I took some pics... I might have time to post them Monday.
It was fun and good to see my Texas friends again. :)

Why is it that when a CP car has chopped up fenders it is "RAD!!!!" but if a DSP car chops them up it is a big joke?

The first day was not a power friendly course. I was only a couple tenths shy of streilnicks with more weight and less tire than teucci/ramey in my 4 door. (top pax on the first day of the event!! woo!)
2nd day was a litte more power friendly. but it is true, ramey and teucci were working with dead 710s. They were quicker than streilnicks at the arkansas tour.

On my first run on Saturday, I missed the brake pedal. I mean missed it. Completely. My foot went between the gas and brake. I couldn't get my mind off of that the rest of the weekend.
I think there may be a problem with me driving the Subie so rarely (Diane only let's me drive it at AX's, the rest of the time it's HERS). I have much more time in the Spec Miata than the Subie recently and the pedals are much closer in the SM. :mad: :furious: :mad:
