We'll do two slaloms next time we're at Brooksville to make up for it. ;)

Does this club have a copyright on those optional-direction pin turns? (Psst...the answer is "clockwise".)

Nah. As far as I'm concerned, making it optional is just DNF-prevention, same as last month's "optional" slalom. If you want to take it the "wrong" way, more power to ya!

Good thing you are in charge of course setup, looks like a safety issue to me :-)

Is there a waiting list for either morning or afternoon slots? I'm not picky! The FCRC which is 5 minutes from my house got cancelled and I'd love to attend this one if there is anything available. Thanks.

Unfortunately they don't do waiting lists. Just keep an eye out on here and check the entry list on myautoevents.com once or twice a day.

A lot of people will post if they backed out but not everyone will. I happened to have a sleepless night and was able to get in from the last cancellation posted here. 8-)

Definitely looking forward to this event!

The car's got more camber in the rear now so hopefully no more Rockford Files oversteer on every corner exit...

Also picked up some 17x9 wheels to replace the 17x8's I previously had. Same 235's, just on a wider wheel.

I think Jeremy's going to co-drive so I'll have a 2nd opinion on the handling. We should be able to tune with the adjustable rear bar on the fly.

Should be fun!
