Default Snow tires mounted for Lime Rock!

Seriously, I have snow tires on my C4... but I'm not registered to go to Lime Rock until next thursday...

I can't believe we're supposed to get snow storm tonight!

I assume CVR and NASA have called their events off?

For those who were cancelled out of the April 1 event at Lime Rock, Hudson Valley Region, PCA still has plenty of room for white, black and red rungroup drivers. You may register at
http://www.clubregistration.net
Green/yellow is full.
Registration is open, and we will honor your CVR tech form for the April 1 event.

We are only running 4 run groups, so there will be plenty of track time.

Van; you could take the C4 and bring some track tires with you, leave the turbo at home....BUT, for next week, no jynxing, please, make sure you remove the snow tires from all your vehicles. I will be praying for 50's+ w/sunshine (or clouds even) just no damp cold LRP April weather....see ya Friday!

Yep - and I can't make the tentative rescheduled date due to other commitments.

I know early April can be hit or miss when it comes to the weather -- but they are predicting something like 6 inches of the white stuff up there.... Geeeeezz.....

Can't remember where I read it but the article said that Rcompound tires were made of same compound as snow tires. Anyone else hear that?

Too bad the event was cancelled, we got no snow here in NY and it isn't even raining at the moment.

You must remember my young apprentice that growth is only obtained thru dedication and sacrifice! The other commitment blocks your true path my son!
