is ant bringing the ten???? oh man!

tanK
02-25-2008, 02:47 PM
Yep, he's bringing the X. That's his only car now!

I'm getting excited b/c I haven't gone to the track once this year. I'll probably see you on the road. I think Ant was saying we should get a hotel room friday night so we don't have to make the 1.5-2hr drive in the morning...

Have fun guys and be safe. Was actually planning to show up but no wheels and tires to track on since mine got stolen a month ago. Insurance company is lagging and will not make it on time. A guaranteed fun event and money well spent. Philline will show you the way!

no he's not, but i thought they did allow passengers, you just cant drive someone else's car unless you registered twice? i dunno, remember last year, there was that one STi that 5 people were sharing or something

You can have multiple drivers but only 1 person in the car at once (+ instructor but that doesn't count). I think ride alongs are ok if the instructor drives your car. I may be wrong though... thats what I remember anyway.

From the December clinic, they said absolutely no passengers whatsoever unless it's an instructor.

well the guy who's bringing the 914 also has a VW R32 that has seen numerous track events, but its his first time with this recently purchased 914.

the scion tc guy is big into motorsports, but has never done an actual event. he want to sell his scion tc really soon, so what better way to thrash a car right before you sell it.

So I'm guessing no convoy then? Perhaps me and Kev, and then Ant and Charles together, and then you and your coworkers? So overall 3 convoys? Lol.

LOL I just realized that Saturday is March 1st. The McDonald's breakfast thing DOES NOT APPLY. Oh well...

Ant that doesn't sound too bad for the motel actually. Only thing is I'd probably drive out around 11-11:30pm and crash when i get there... I wouldn't mind splitting!
