I cant frickin wait!!!
Aaaaaah, that's so frickin' CUTE!! ...Timmy can't wait to run against me.

Michael, my car is currently NOT PCA compliant due to the fact that there is no longer any carpet in it. My priorities have changed from racing to getting into a new/bigger house with a ton of garages, that's my goal anyway. I'm going to scale back the racing for a bit in an attempt to get the finances in order...so I plan to campaign my car in NASA GTS3 for now...although would LOVE to try it out in H class to see if I could beat Timmy's Arch-Nemesis from the August 2008 race.

Yeah, it's all your fault Larry!

Anyone that's been to Larry's place knows how it could ruin you for life...talk about garage space!!??

Allow me to clarify my previous statement, my priorities are SOMEWHAT changing in that I'm trying to get my act together and am planning a big move by Summer's end. I have the carpeting for the car but I'm pressed for time in getting my current house ready for the sale and trying to complete projects and get things like "spare" engines/gearboxes OUT of there so I have room to facilitate getting other things done.

I have no plans to "abandon" racing whatsoever, just kind of dialing it back, so to say.

...and yes, it's the truth, one visit to Larry's "kingdom" is enough to make any wrench-wielding man ENVIOUS!!

Plans are to co-drive in the enduro for now, if things change and I'm able to have my car ready to run in H, I'll let you know...after all, I'd really like to!

Be kind!
Congrats!!! See you there!

VIR club members are running on Thursday so the latest word according to the Zone 2 race website is that there will be a 2.5 hour Sunset Test/Tune beginning at 5 PM on June 25.

Sounds cool.... no pun intended!

The Vintage Boys club is a club of gearheads in Columbia, SC. Members must be over 50 and be enthusiasts of cars, motorcycles, airplanes, etc. There are a couple of other requirements but you get the idea.
Several VBC members are also PCA club racers. These PCA club racers have banded together as the VBC race team. We paddock together, help each other, hotel together, eat together and yes take liquid refreshments together. Then at our VBC meetings we lie to the other members about our exploits on the track with PCA.:-)

I just got an email that my registration is "pending" and has not been approved.
What's the deal with that?
