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!!! )

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.

No. Still under warranty..no money...why mod a d17 engine anyway? Why spend 4 grand more just to get a 180hp car when I could trade it in...blah blah...pick which reason you like best.

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.

Rep Power: 0 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!

Rep Power: 0 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.

Rep Power: 0 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.

Rep Power: 290 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.
