To celebrate all things with great Europeaness, the following special prizes will be awarded!

TOP 10 European car drivers in the PAX will receive a free Bimmerworld race poster!
BOTTOM 10 Non-European car drivers in PAX will receive some other form of motivational poster.

I think Spratte is running one of those Japanese Minis...

Jim

Keith Quistorff · **Posted:** Thu Jul 17, 2008 3:59 pm

Is David Spratte actually going to be driving the Mini Cooper (or Jim's Type R)?

Edit - I guess Jim answered my question the same time I asked it.

Someone else mentioned that too, but I don't see anything in the forecast other than what is typical for any NC summer day. Scattered thunderstorms is pretty much every day.

Updated with Chuck running in DS now.

DS 17 Keith Quistorff Red 2004 BMW 330i
DS 28 Chuck Branscomb 2003 BMW 330i
X 25 Carl Fisher yellow 05 Mini Cooper
STU 9 Dustin Fredrickso Technoviolet 1998 BMW M3
SM 22 Marcus McRae Black 1998 BMW M3
BSP 32 Mike Whitney Arctic Silber 1997 BMW M3
DS 75 Keith Vail Black 2005 Chrysler Crossfire
HS 17 Emmie Fisher yellow 05 Mini Cooper
STS 86 Lee Williams Blue 1998 BMW 328is
LAD 7 Jackie Branscomb Red 2003 BMW 330i

Here's mine I guess, with Keith cleaning up. I'm basing this on the stock cars being on r-comps fwiw.

You euro snobs are hiding behind that pax index. It's okay though, I understand - with a little 4-cylinder Honda being the fastest car at the event 75% of the time on raw times this year, I'd hide behind it too.

Here's my predictions anyway.

1. Keith Vail
2. Keith Quistorff
3. Chuck Branscomb
4. Dustin Fredrickson
5. Lee Williams
6. Carl Fisher
7. Mike Whitney
8. Matt McGrain
9. Emmie Fisher
10. Nelson Kick

Let the battle begin!

Chuck Branscomb · **Posted:** Thu Jul 17, 2008 8:02 pm

Mike,

You need to edit your web link up above to eliminate the period at the end.

I'm on the fence about whether to drive the M5 or ZHP btw...dramatically different PAX numbers for those two. I might not decide until Sat morning, so not sure how that messes up betting.

Chuck

OK, car is still broke, so I am coming with no car but with high hopes of grabbing a ride with someone. I thought it would be fixed, but no

PM me and let me know if I can co-drive or if I will have to drive the truck :-)

Thanks

Rob
