About the tent....yeah....not so much. We usually just FRY out there. Bring LOTS of sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and LIGHT COLORED CLOTHING....and you'll live. We do. (I do, and I'm just about as PALE as a GHOST!!! )

Well, I'm off this weekend starting Friday so I'll give you a call. One more question I hadn't thought of yet. How hard is it to get a loaner helmet?

Not hard at all...there's plenty of them. Don't worry. But if you want, go to any motorcycle shop and get a cheapo $80 helmet, and that'll last you for about 4 years of AutoXing....that's what I did.

Had an awesome time at AutoX on Sunday despite the bit of a scare when a vette spun out and started coming off the course towards me.

Too bad I leave a few days after World Arena. I'm going home on leave Aug 25th and reporting to my new unit in Germany on Sep 20th. I guess I'll see everyone that's out there on the 22nd.

READ THE ABOVE POST!!
lol

We're gettin' together for the Aug. 22nd AutoX event down in Co. Springs @ the world arena.

Send me an AOL Instant Message and I'll reply by phone if you want directions to the event.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!

But here's the rough directions:
I-25
Take exit 138 (Circle Drive Westbound)
Proceed West approximately 3/4 mi., turn Left onto Venetucci Blvd.
World Arena will be on the Left, after the Tinsletown Theater.

I'll be there ALL day racing, and I'm sure a few others will be too.

That was a good time on Sunday. My friend got a picture as I'm coming around the turn into the slalom that has Tinsel Town as the backdrop. I should have it on the computer this weekend. I just want to let everyone know I've had a great time in Colorado but it's time to leave. I'll still post on the forum during my time in Germany. Nurburgring here I come!

Not going anywhere but Landstuhl Stevo. I'm assigned to 1st Satellite Control Bn so it's basically one small unit. And the best thing is we do our wartime mission from there so we are non-deployable, not even for field problems. I'll be there on SEP 20th but for right now I'm chillin' in Florida and watching this hurricane headed straight for us.

And here's some more pics demonstrating my ability to roll the car around and come very close on the cones. Any suggestions on some good adjustable coilover kits that don't cost $1000.

Yes..

They're called Koni's with Ground Control springs. Best (cheap) set-up you can get IMO.

Koni's : $500.00
GC's : $150.00 (custom spring rates available)

Total : $600-$700 with camber kit and alignment....MUCH cheaper than any coilover, and almost as good.
