Just had the coldest day of the season, it's 2009, and realized I have over 3 months to wait for the first event of the year.[bigcry]
Just venting and can't wait to start dodging cones again!
You know you are addicted when you bump this thread during the two weeks in between events.
Partly because the PCA is having their national convention a couple of blocks from my house and we set the autocross course for them.. this weekend can't come soon enough!!
Heck, I have not run yet this year. Been a while since I've posted here also. Plan on running first time in a couple weeks. Need to put a few more miles on the new ride.
I'm really pumped for the upcoming season because of the way I finished 2012 (2 class wins, both by a second and one giving me my first top 20 PAX finish (18 of 141) in Chicago region, and an overall PAX win with Champaign County Sports Car Club (95-ish competitors).
My main focus this off-season has been the proverbial "nut behind the wheel" and I've only made a couple of changes to the car; race seat, new OE clutch and flywheel, a real CAI and chipped ECU, I'm ready to pick up where I left off. Just have to wait till the end of March.
I just went to our first event of the season here in the Arkansas region. It was awesome. Though i learned very early in the day that i desperately need new tires. I had to fight all day with grip in first and second gear. and i ended up turned around on one run. That was the first time that had ever happened. it was interesting. I Just moved here so i am happy to be so close to an area that has the SCCA.
I'm getting all the emails from the local corvette clubs, and the CDC for the metro/DC area... I can't wait.
I need to limit the amount of wear I incur until I'm making more money; so I'm getting the remainder of my racing fix at Summit Point's "Kart Till You Puke"!!! It's a bit more, but I'm not gonna have to worry about getting home after it's all said and done.
Finally, first event of the year this weekend! And the weather looks great.
