so i guess the usual mcdonalds? what time?

9/21/2005 11:16:27 AM

I'm going to the one in Danville on Saturday, instead. The last sanford race sucked... it had like 12 slaloms. Danville, on the other hand, is always good.

I'm going to save the trip and just autox in the Food Lion parking lot. Let me know if you want to join.

^^dont you drive a miata? you should love slolums

^come, its only $20 and i'll bet that $20 i'll beat you by a second. ooooo

9/21/2005 11:57:47 AM

Slaloms are fine... but 12 in a row is just boring.

9/21/2005 12:12:26 PM

i'll be there, i'm like # 4 on waitlist

9/21/2005 3:10:04 PM

^whats your name/car?

9/21/2005 3:10:49 PM

Adam in the geo prizm, ohh yeah

9/21/2005 3:16:12 PM

there's a reason that last one was called "slalomania"

i wouldnt judge an entire site by one event. different people in charge (event chairs) and different course designers.

i was considering the one in danville also, but i really dont need to drive the car that much in one weekend.

[Edited on September 21, 2005 at 4:22 PM. Reason : i've been to not-so-good danville events also.]

9/21/2005 4:22:19 PM

word is this will be a fast simple course.

9/22/2005 9:27:43 AM

we're meeting up at the McDonalds at 55 & us1

leaving at (around) 7am. get there earlier if you want some breakfast.

look for the death bunny

can any of you guys go down saturday afternoon and help setup? me and PJ have done it a couple times before. its pretty fun and you can make a lot of test runs, etc (but not on the exact real course).

as of now there are only 2 ppl who can setup and there is normally 6-8.. theyre hurting and i dont think me and PJ can make it. so step up if you havent before! *eyes kevin*

?? you act like i didnt see mike's message on the tarheel forum. maybe i have plans...

9/23/2005 9:40:39 AM

does anyone want to explain auto-x to me. I imagine it is a course and you race it one at a time, yes? anything else that goes on at these things?

9/23/2005 11:41:56 AM

that's the basic idea. there's the social aspect of it too, and you get to see some cool cars.

I can't think time because of Danville on Saturday, but I would any other time. Let me know in the future if ya'll need help... I enjoy that.

9/23/2005 2:37:22 PM

so I didn't do too well at this one, best time of 84.112 i believe. Although i did manage to pop a tire off the bead, and a couple guys told me i got up on two wheels a couple times

i know i saw beethead on my way out and i think i was infront of him for one run

how did everyone else do?

9/28/2005 8:22:23 PM

^ holy shit! that was you? you almost flipped that sucker (up on two). i was working at the station when you started skidding.

[Edited on September 28, 2005 at 11:37 PM. Reason : my best was a 74.xxx]

9/28/2005 11:36:52 PM

haah damn. i musta missed that. thats probably not too bad a time considering how much hp helped on that course. it was long and fast. that was the first event i had to shift between 2nd and 3rd a few times. i musta been over 70mph at times
