Anybody attend from the board here?
I saw a few 240's thier, 2or 3 s-13's, and a nice looking s14.
their were some really nice FD's, but i forgot to take pictures of them, had disposable camera and wasted the film inside at the event.
If you went, what was your times?
I ran a 34.662

June 13 it will be here in St. Louis, but I may be out of town :( I already paid my fee too.

How did you like it?

I think you can refund your registration if its 10 or more days prior to the event.

I'm running April 13th. Did you drive Mazda 6s? What was the best time for your group?

I signed up for my local one. Its like in late June or something. I think driving a fwd automatic is going to be tough for me.

Yeah, thats what i heard anyways. I can imagine it now; going arround a turn, the auto decides to downshift and I understeer into a wall, all the time screaming "MY 240 WOULD NEVER DO THAT!!!"



You could always lie about your age and get a fake id.;)

"going arround a turn, the auto decides to downshift and I understeer into a wall" haha
actually the auto is hesitant sometimes, it takes the computer a while to think before it downshifts which causes you to lose some time. They do have nice breaks though.
the only manual trannys are the turbo proteges you use for slalom practice and the miata that is on the test drive course. everything else is auto.
