It's been a year since I've turned a wheel in anger and I'm really looking forward to the event this weekend. Since I'm thinking about it so much I've thought up some predictions.

I predict I will either be really relaxed behind the wheel and crush X class, or I will totally suck and finish DFL. Either way I'm sure it will be fun.

I predict Eric Peterson and Carl Fisher will have their own competition to see who can hit the most cones. Then they will both have a brilliant last runs and beat me by 2 seconds. :(

I predict Aaron Buckley will spin.........repeatedly. :lol:

I predict every participant will get at least one sand burr stuck their foot or ankle.

Any one else have any 2006 predictions before the hard reality of times and cone counts sets in?

Shawn

Prediction: It will be bloody cold, and on barking my knuckles while changing wheels I will ask myself "Why do we do this?" The question will answer itself when the first car hits the course.

Corollary: There should be virtually no wind. That alone will make it much warmer than the TnT.

I predict that I will not only learn a lot from you guys but maybe actually make you proud and not have a DNF run as a novice. :D

I predict that Jason Mauldin will go down in flames to Kevin Allen during the drift competition...

No, sidewayz isn't faster, but it's a lot more fun. :D

8) :P

I also predict that Marcus McRae will have an epiphany this weekend, shrug off "teh suck" that has been dragging him down, and get back to the winning form of two years ago, FTPAXing by over a second. Good luck, Marcus!!! :thumbsup:

As long as it isn't me again. That trip to the hospital was no fun last fall.

I predict that my wife will love her new car --- And that my new shocks will frustrate me this weekend.

I predict that I will once again complete the course in a MUCH slower time than Mr. Feinburg. :?

And that I will spin multiple times while my new shocks continue to baffle me. :lol:
