I probably won't run, but I'll be there to watch... not sure which car I'll bring but if the weather is nice, I'll probably shoot some photos as well

 

Last I checked there were no open slots left, so if you are not already registered, I believe it is too late. This is kind of a special event.

see you there !

The event at Northfield was really awesome. We ended up having a long course with good average speed and still got done at a reasonable time. Sam Strano from Pa ended up taking first place in his FS Mustang and walked away with a bunch of cash and prizes.

I saw 1 yellow S2000 stopped by to watch for awhile but I was working at the time and couldn't break free to say hi.

Next event is July 8th in Lordstown. Check http://www.autox.net/ for details

take care

That was me.

I felt pretty lame, there by myself so I decided to captue the moment and shoot some pics.

I just couldn't stay long as I had to take advantage of my day off.

How did you do?

 

Thanks for stopping by ! Sorry I didn't get to say hi.

I did OK. I won AS and was 16th in the final top 30 money heat. There were a bunch of really good drivers and it wasn't the perfect S2000 course [ thats my story ] but it was a fun course and I think I must have been pushing pretty hard based upon the bruises on my legs and knees !

We are trying to put another event together at Northfield for August that would pit NWOR / OVR / STEEL CITIES / NORA together in a challenge event. So stay tuned !

take care
