I got a sub and a water for free when I went. May have been a special thing. I remember them saying a sponsor provided the food.

The 20 yr. old stuff must be near the start/finish line. Nobody could get any traction in first gear when I was there. That's the only course that I could get the rear end loose prior to my rear ARB upgrade. That was happening about 1/2 way down in a big slalom. (must have been the 15 year old section)

I wonder which event the Merideth's are going to, since Valencia is like their home turf. If they aren't there, your only competition will be Danny.

 

Mine? No way....Last time out there I got beat by 3 Porsches (Danny, the Boxster S's owner, and some N/A 996) 2 BMW's (Jamal and a wicked fast 325<maybe328>), and my friend Cory in his GTI VR-6+Hoosiers. I did well for slip slidin away on streets. There are (contrary to popular belief) good Porsche drivers out there other than Mr. Shields. I say Jamal takes the over-all Sun. unless a Z-06 with R compounds shows.

I was really considering Valencia, despite all the negatives, but I've confirmed two well dressed S-2000's and a 350 being there. Looks like this weekend is just for fun, as they all should be. This year end trophy thing has got me all bitter. I wish it was the sum of all events. The best 7 is crap.

 

At least you're in the running for the trophies. I'll only have 6 results in, max.
WHAT!?!! My wife already thinks I spend too much time with my car. Are we not using FSF next year. I haven't looked at a schedule for next season

 

During the winter time, FSF actually has Fairs to attend to. And that brings in far far more money than we do, so anyone else gets dibs. Gainesville, VCC, and whatever else we can find as a site has to take up the slack.

You do not spend too much time with the car. Keep in mind that 2 hours for a drive is still local meaning it's still a day, and you don't need a hotel.

 

I know that... It's my wife that needs convincing!
See ya in G'ville

 

OilLeak, You can actually go to Valencia this weekend and have that count towards the West Coast Series points (let Cheryl Poindexter know you want it that way). You then have Gainesville on 10-12 and the Fairgrounds again on 10-26. So, you'd (possibly) have 3 more events to add to W.C. points. How many do you have now? You'll need 7 to qualify for a year end award (trophy, shirt, I don't know what it is)...

If you decide, like me, that stealing the trophy from the obvious best driver in class isn't civil - come to Zephyrhills, it'll be fun. I'd love to overhear this conversation: "Yeah, I just spent $3,500 on that new exhaust for my 911 and this guy in a 30 year old Datsun beat me by 8 seconds!...But I LOOK cool...".

 

If I do Valencia, Gainesville and FSF I'll have 6 results. I'd need G'ville to be double points. It's okay, I'm over it. I'll set my sights on the Florida State Championship Novemeber 2nd. That might be cool as there should be a pretty good crowd in CSP.
I promised Bonnie I'd go horseback riding or something with her this weekend so the Porsche guys are safe too. I'll help you whoop up on them some other time.

 

LOL - That's funny!
No, it's not about wallpaper - It's about sex. The happier she is, the happier I am. And given I was out of town on business all week and she's in Alaska on business all week next week....

 

Can she drive? Get her involved and you won't have issues.

 

Yeah, that's the plan. She needs a hobby anyway. Her main issue is that she's afraid to drive my car. I'm working on it though.
