I'll be there early for set up and the drive will be fun with the new car smell and all.

Never... We are the mailmen of auto racing. Rain, snow, tornadoes, etc... Lovelock in the rain 2 weeks ago was one of our best autocrosses ever!

Dean · 2007-10-05, 05:18 PM

And just a reminder. Plan on Drinks, Dinner, BSing... Saturday at the Flowing Tide on North McCarren.

5:30ish depending on when we get done out at Stead.

MattR · 2007-10-05, 05:46 PM

Dean, I will be out as early as possible to help Kevin.

cody · 2007-10-05, 07:19 PM

It's not going to rain this weekend.

wrxkidid · 2007-10-05, 09:10 PM

WRX06TR · 2007-10-05, 10:33 PM

I will probably be there around 7 or 7:30, ready to help...

M3n2c3 · 2007-10-06, 11:37 PM

That was a ridiculously awesome course, and running it on my ze512s was really entertaining. The extra feedback and slip versus a set of 615s made the octagon a real blast to jam through.

I'm glad I made this one.

MPREZIV · 2007-10-07, 01:32 PM

HUGE kudos to Dean and Kevin! That course was SUPER fun!!

I did some doriftoring, just not where I had planned...

wrxkidid · 2007-10-07, 04:50 PM

Definatly had some fun both days. Kinda a bummer about my buddies car but oh well.

I had fun with my spin.

Thanks guys, I had a blast

Nick Koan · 2007-10-07, 06:22 PM

The Camaro was a freaking blast to drive.

Kevin M · 2007-10-07, 06:26 PM

The Legacy Gt was a blast to beat you all in. Again.

Dean · 2007-10-08, 07:44 AM

I'm glad everyone liked the course(s). Challenging yet VERY FUN was our goal.

We really appreciate everyone's help setting up, tearing down, etc. It is amazing how well things run and how fast they get done when you have great help.

Thank You all.

Mission accomplished in my opinion. Even on my way to 13 cones in Sue's car on Saturday, I never even had a thought about wishing the course was different. Many drivers complimented us on how much fun it was (including John Evans and Randy Jones!!!) and nobody out and out said they wished it was different, although many drivers would have been happy without the Octagon. I personally didn't mind losing it, but I also didn't think it was a bad element. At least we foun d somehting other than the de rigeur sweeper down the back. It's more fun at the finish!

Plus infinity factorial! We set new records for tear-down both days thanks to all the help we got. Mike K., Nick, Derrek, Robbie, Cory, Cody, Debbie and more I'm forgetting unfairly gave a bunch of help from friday setup to sunday teardown.

cody · 2007-10-08, 08:41 AM

Awesome weekend! Thanks everyone!

k-dogg39 · 2007-10-08, 08:44 AM

Great course! Wish I could have made it out Sunday too...

dknv · 2007-10-08, 10:34 AM

Thanks Kevin and Dean, for chairing a great season-ending weekend!
I really enjoyed the slalom action on Saturday, and on Sunday I had so much fun driving the Miata, foot-to-the-floor for nearly the entire course.
Rachel said she thought the courses were Awesome, too. She has caught the 'bug', I mean, the passion for autox.

Rachel has improved an incredible amount from the start of the year. She ended up being the fastest novice on Sunday!

Hey, I gotta update the website tonight or tomorrow night... will you have results for me?

zpeed · 2007-10-08, 02:16 PM

I wish I make it ontime for Sat Morning. But my cousin he hit the snow on the way up here Friday night. He did not wake up til late on Sat. We only went out for Sat afternoon. It was really fun being only one auto-x for me this year. Can't wait to see other driver times. I almost in the 49 sec. just almost

Tonight. I did a check for misspelled names for the whole season and found some errors that I need to fix.
