so you don't have to be Eric Peterson


Thank God. But did you really have to say that? I mean, if people thought they had to *be* Eric Peterson, nobody would sign up.

I mean really...that dude aspires to own an Aztek one day. That's just not right.

We'll have satellite TV and a big screen plasma hooked up to the new generator. In case of rain, we will roll out the new awning.

I'm very happy for you folks that are doing that, but I'm not sure how that helps with my plan to hang out all day with the ESPN Gameday folks and then attend the game in person, though. :D

I'll be happy to help with the novice school. I did it last year and really enjoyed it.

At 9 PM in Cameron "Indoor Stadium" (what will those clever Dookies think of next ???). If you're fortunate enough to get tickets to that game, the real problem is not getting to the game, it's getting up Sunday morning early enough to get to the autocross on time.

In any event, I'll sub for Donnie in the autocross school if he thinks of another excuse :) :)

I'm in if you are still looking. Would be good for me to remember all those things that I'm supposed to be doing.

Les, I'd like to help if I can. I know last year was my first, but I learned a lot and feel I have some things I can pass on to someone starting out.
Also, my parents live in L'burg so it's easy for me to be there for the whole weekend.

Let me know.

Thanks guys,

So I think we have enough instructors now, more than we currently have students. :shock: I'm surprised to see so few students signed up at this point.

Glad to see that you'll have enough instructors. This is the first year in a long time that Donna and I can't instruct, we always enjoyed seeing the great improvements the students made thru the day. Such is the task of a car salesman tho to work every Saturday.
Encourage anyone you know to take the school, especially the younger drivers, even if they don't plan to continue AXing, it's great street driving training as well.
