My initial plans LAST year for THIS year's season went somthing like this:

1. Start in Novice with the STi and try to learn not to embarass myself.

2. Get out of Novice and join the highly competitive ranks of AS where I will keep trying not to embarass myself.

Kink in plan: Sold the STi

3. Run in STX with the new toy (MS Protege) and try not to embarass myself.

4. Due to some fuel cut issues I considered removing some stuff from the MS Protege and going to D-Stock...where.....I hoped not to embarass myself.

So my wife calls me at work last week and lets me know about a car for sale at a nearby used car dealership. Now, one rather pricey lunch break later, I've decided on option 5:

5. GS, with the new toy, where...YOU GUESSED IT!!, I hope not to embarass myself.

She's still deciding on GS or Ladies but I feel that she's leaning heavily towards the Ladies class.

At least with me there's one common denominator...

I actually sold Greg my last NX. I believe it's the one he's currently using as his DD. He's a swell guy!

He's not driving the Audi S4 anymore?

But do you have the autographed t-shirt from Captain Panties?

When I last spoke with him I believe he said the Audi had been relegated to the "winter car" role while the NX would be the warm-weather ride.
