[QUOTE=mickf]Can't wait! Too bad your earlier events conflict with our Potomac autox dates.

Too bad for you guys they don't conflict

Your AutoX chair and I have scheduled 2 dates to have a Chesapeake vs Potomac Runoff.

June 18th at Ripken Stadium - Chesapeake home field - Round 1

August 27th at Winchester - Potomac home field - Round 2

Get ready for some fun!

Good to see some action here.....even if it's a drug up thread
Only 46 days till the season starts (but who's counting) and I have to defend this.... against nobody, usually. I'm only making a few mods this winter so's I may still be able to drive the thing.

I've been at it since '99, but not in a Porsche yet (should have my 944 ready in time for spring). All my experience is with FWD (4 Regional SCCA STS class championships in 2 different Dodge Neons), so this will be a learning year. Looking forward to trying a PCA event where I can just show up, **** cones, and play - I spend too much time with the administration of our SCCA Region (I'm the R.E.) for it to be as much fun as it should be.

Lawn Gnome, we think new guys like you who get out and drive the wheels off your car are great! Hope to see youout again this year.

Potomac guys, check your website and ours, we have 2 inter-regional challenges that should prove exciting!

I think at the very least the winning regions team/car should be on the cover of the losing regions monthly magazine!

I know a few adventureous souls from Chesapeake like that show on SPEED call Pinks !

Joe, in case you don't get the email I sent to your autocross email addy at pcachs.org

It was nice to talk to you today. Here's the results for the event when I was up against the gutted cup car (look at P12).

You might give it a try anyway. Who knows, you might learn something.
