I have a friend who want to bring out his two daughters to this event, but cannot get Renee to call or email him back, who else can he use as a contact?

How about if he can bring his 15.5 year old daughter out who has a learners permit?

Learners permit is fine as long as we have a licensed adult driver in the car at all times.

This won't fill up. All questions can be answered here if you can't get a hold of Renee. No worries. Bring 'em out. Our Ladies School is the deal of the century.

1) She doesn't have a helmet. Should she wear mine (not a great fit), will there be loaners, or does she need to buy one?

Thanks. See you on the 29th.
Most of the loaners run a little big, so the fit might not be any better than your's. If you KNOW she's going to do it more than once it might just be worth it to buy a cheap one.

Here's some $25 Snell M2000's (likely good for another 8 years) you can probably still pick up at a bell store (one in Costa Mesa):

Stacey is participating in the 'driving' part of the event, so I will have to pretend to have absolutely no interest in bikinis and wet t-shirts.

Michael, I suggest she use your helmet. As Steve notes the loaner helmets have some smelly mega-jungle fury thing going on.

I'm hoping Renee posts in the thread about our current registrants.

First of all, I've only received 2 phone calls and spoken to both of those people. I don't know who you are talking about Mako. However, as of this point there are a total of 15 entires and NO ONE will be turned away. That's always been the case for the Ladies School.

If anyone is interested in the school - just send your check to me per the flyer.

I will be happy to instruct until 1 or 2 p.m. George and I leave for a 14 day Cruise to the Panama Canal on the 30th. I am sure by then my ladies can be on their own or maybe I can work something out with another instructor for assistance.

Instead of email, maybe try using the PM feature on here. I like it cuz I can look at messages from whatever computer I'm on.

I didn't think the Motorcycle helmets were good enough for AutoX. I thought we had to have the SA safety rating.

So what ratings are acceptable for AutoX? SA2005 and M2000?

M95 or better, which means M2000, M2005, SA95, SA2000 and SA2005. There's other not so common ones that are acceptable, but you'll have to look that up. When the next rating comes out, likely 2010, the '95s expire, and so on.

Many tracks require SA, so if you plan on doing track time an SA might be in your best interest. I like the M's as visability tends to be better.

Someone who chases cones. As a reward, they are given two runs at the end of the day to try and beat their lady's time.

And then when (if) you beat the ladies time, you get dinner paid for but end up having to sleep outside :sleepy:
