Hi Matt,

Do you know if there will be a PDX or Mid-O evening practice before this event? Haven't been out since early June and need to shake out the car (and driver)...

Steve
ITA #32 CRX
 
Cool...Thanks Kevin!

Sorry you won't be attending this one - I'll try looking you up again at TRC next time I'm there (which will probably be soon...)

We should be up at the track Friday evening if you need a hand. Planning to arrive around 5-ish at this point. Looking forward to seeing you there! I'm hoping it is a great weekend!
 
Thanks Matt. I should be there around 3-ish on Friday to run the test/tune. I need to find out if I have the overheating issue resolved before the club race.

I can't believe I missed seeing you last race weekend! (I had a wedding to go to no Sat. and left right after my race...) I'll be sure to make it a point to find you and have a beer (or 6) with you on Friday evening! :D
 
Is everyone 'done' for the year?? Can't believe the 'low' entry so far for this event... If you haven't been to Mid-Ohio in the fall - you are missing out!

I have to work that weekend :( I switched with my boss for another racing weekend I needed off earlier in the year. Thats the problem with working for a business thats open on the weekend.
 
ITC is committed to running the MVR race at Nelson the week before. Since most of can't race two weekends in a row we are out for MO.

I see the Volvo is registered. You might get one Renault too, one of the Toms.

So I just need to talk One of you into coming to the event to get the 'free' 24 points available... :o

J/K. I'll catch up with you guys at the Quad. really looking forward to ending the year at Nelson - Should be a blast!!

Just hoping for a better entry to make the weekend a success. (I really enjoy the several chances a year to drive at Mid-Ohio!)
 
As far as the buyer of my house, it's in the underwriter's hands. Once that's a go, the rest will fall in place. Fingers crossed.
 
Matt, you may wanna talk to Chris Durbin in the #94 Mustang - pretty sure the 2003 Mustang isn't legal for ITB, even in an enduro... and I don't recall ITR cars being invited to the Enduro... ;)
 
Even with the mess below - I still had a geat weekend!!!

Rain for Q1. I put the Civic P1 in ITA and overall. At the start of the race, I got walked by Steve Sancricca in his CRX. He spun at t2 and I spun to avoid him (in front of the field). I joined DFL and figured I had time to work my way back towards the front. I made it to 10a.

I believe the car is done. I'll start cutting the front end off this week and verify. I was thinking about getting a new car for 2013 and this may make that decision easier. This was my 14th year with this Civic. I've had this car since my daughter was 1 1/2 years old. It will be missed.

:(:(:(:(

So sorry to see that. I know we're not supposed to, but we grow attached to these cars. I thought I had lost mine, but got it back from the frame shop yesterday "good as new". Maybe they can save yours too. Looks like Sean's got some serious damage to deal with too.

Question - would you feel worse if you felt like you were responsible for wrecking your car, or if you felt like there was nothing you could do to avoid it. I know I could not have avoided my wreck, and I think that made it easier to accept.
