Yeah, continuing my streak of placing in the top 10 is going to be really tough! We'll have to see if I learned anything from the Subaru Challenge experience

Damn! Every single one of those cars (with the exception of the 2 Probe GT's) are amazing handlers. With decent driver's behind the wheel, you'll have your hands full for sure!

Chike,
Yeah, realistically, I should be able to walk on the two Probes and the Integra. The Focus SVT is fairly well sorted out with a very experienced driver. The Celicas are both almost always right behind Brian every month (as in within less than a second of his time). I've been chasing the Sentra SE-R all season - beating him on Sunday would make my season!
-Bill (damn MINIs.... )

Well since I already beat Chiles and no one else finished ahead of him at nationals I suppose I'd take the class running Bill stock.

Just heard that the lot that we run winter at is no longer available. EVERYBODY BOYCOTT MAPLE GROVE SPEEDWAY!!! Seems its just too much work to open and close the gates for $1000. Good think we have some rallyx tires now . Must get at least 4 inches of ground clearance!!!

Billy,
Sure wish I could make this one. But I am tied up with a Habitat for Humanity event on Sunday.

BTW, are you going to make the next Mercedes autocross? Tom wants to run against you in his Focus SVT - and of course I want to beat you with a good "index'ed time"..... And you DID SAY you would make one of the Mercedes' event if I went to the Subaru Challange, .....didn't you?? At the Subie Challange, I proved very well, I thought, the golden rule I provided Chike - STAY ON COURSE!!! Looking at the video of one of my runs, I now see where I was off .....

See in Winchester ....
Harry

If it helps Bill decide, I'll probably make an appearance on Sunday the 16th provided my cycle doesn't mysteriously die on me as it has been lately. I'll be camping in New Market for the weekend and Winchester is on the way home.

Oh yeah and Bill, you'd loose to a freaking motorcycle there if they'd let me run in that. A 22 year old honda on top of it!!!
