Re: 2008 F1 Podium Picker Challenge: British Grand Prix (Rd 9)
I think the best part about the new place is the 5 min commute.
If you had asked about the TV 4 months ago, we probably would have said yes, but now we are covered

Re: CS miata question

It would be cool to spend a little vacation time, maybe go sight see around the olympic penninsula, Hoh rainforest. Mt. Rainer. Mt. St. Helens. Park the rig and go tour the space needle and the boeing everett plant. Visit Pike Place Market (but avoid getting hit in the head with the fish) If you had...

Re: FSAE Recap
I heard from Ian last night that our Cal Poly guys won the endurance event, won the skid-pad event and placed 5th overall.
If it hadn't been for that pesky fuel injector they would have done very well in the autocross and acceleration also.
Great job guys!!
