Based on the subject line, you have deduced how this works. Suggest you send an email to axscoring@thscc.com to negotiate how much you get.

...and supposedly pay in € to the non-patriot.

To all,

I am a patriot, it is just that in this economy, with the dollar on the slide, I prefer to have my money easily deposited in a Swiss bank account. Euros are much easier when it comes to that.

Sincerely,

You humble AMERICAN HoS.

God Bless America!!

You can also buy your positions with barrels of oil. That is probably worth more in the long run than any currency!!!!!

Can you pay in carbon credits? Assuming I have some laying around I think they may be good for an ftd....

I know some countries that'd kill for these. :shock:

No, sorry, no carbon credits. That is nothing but a scam anyway.

Todd remember you must share with the Event Chairs! Need some gas money!

It's almost worth it to take the rear bar out of the 325 so I can compete in DS against my arch-rival Lin on a level playing field for once. We've always been on different tires and/or different classes.

But I don't know if the 325 can hang with an ITR...I guess I'll just have to leave the Chris-beating up to Jackie.

And Chris, you dork, you were the first one to turn in the EGR 119 Final. You had a whole hour left!

arch-rival? really?!?

oh yea, there was another set of papers in the folders when i left, so that would make me the second one to leave.

Yeah dude it's now my sworn duty to beat you after you wouldn't let me play with the breadboard and to prove that I'm the fastest driver at Duke...oh wait I guess that means I would have to beat Marcus too. Oh okay well maybe at least the fastest in the class of '09 at Duke.

I bet Dr. G just put those papers in there so you wouldn't put the wrong problems in the wrong folders.

You guys are making me nostalgiac, I wish I had an exam due tomorrow, instead of a meeting

.

how you guys autocross and don't do FSAE is beyond me. Remember guys, even me (the SLOW guy from Duke) was able to take fastest time raw in it (in an unsorted, year old car too, I drove it for the first time the night before the event, I had only driven the current car up until then). Its a lot of work, sure, but when you're driving something that YOU built, and beating better drivers in fast cars with it, its amazingly satisfying. Heck, I was one of the faster drivers on the FSAE team when I was there, and you guys are beating the crap out of me, you could help the team out a lot if for nothing but some driving coaching.

I suppose more people would do it at Duke if they gave course credit though (like almost every other engineering school in the country does).
