I'm already in money wise to these guys for the parts. Besides, ordering from Arlington today won't help w/ getting parts tomorrow so I can make the repairs. Can't believe these guys dragged their feet like this, especially in this day and age of on line customer service and ratings.

Just an FYI for future reference when you need oem stuff fast.

Yeah, seconding w hat Marcus is saying. Rosenthal is usually slightly more expensive, but you can ship stuff USPS and you'll wind up saving a boatload of time versus Mazdaspeed.

If you really, really are desperate, just show up and ask for a co-drive. :P

LOL.... That is a thought, although the bullitt isn't setup to autocross right now. I guess it would fit in STX as it sits, but that wouldn't do much for my season points for HS/RT.

Are there any limitations as to what you can bring on the base (tents, chairs, etc.)? Also, is it possible to leave the base and return once you have checked in?

Rodney, or anyone else leaving tomorrow morning, let me know if your interested in caravanning. I plan to leave my house at 5:30 and I live near the intersection of 440 and Wake Forest Rd in Raleigh.

Crunchtime!!! Nothing like fixing the car or bike the day before the big race. 8)

How's the weather holding out down there today? I saw Jeff's photo of the course drying a little bit ago.

Parts installed. No more engine banging, nice and solid. I do think I'm a few 1000 miles from a new clutch, so I guess that's next.

Wunderground is forecasting 30% chance tomorrow. I heard they got wet today.

Sorry you couldn't make it. We did both today as the weather was much improved. Fast and fun sweeper intensive course, well designed by he NCR crowd. I am Thankful they let us share their site, as the added participation lengthened the event by a bit. (My tussle with timing equipment didn't exactly speed things along, though...sorry about that!)
