Co-drive for Sunday?

Post by Jason Munchhof »

Anyone interested in having a co-driver for 12/14 the champ event? I'd like to try something different. I can cover your entry fee/tire costs/lunch/etc.

BTW, most of my experience is RWD with race tires, but I'm willing to try anything that's semi-competitive.

Wanna try a Corvette?

I hope it will be out of the shop with a brand new transmission.

No use to baby it, I don;t think solo is nearly as hard on it as Streets of Willow. I run all day there and never get out of second gear.

Sounds like fun. I wonder if it'll be enough to beat Chad in the WRX. :)

I'll send a PM.

Jason ... do you know how to drive a Lotus? Maybe you can help Chad break in his new Xige? :twisted:

After going to the ProSolo Finale this year, my personal definition of autocrossing in the rain has changed.

I could make a joke here about BREAKing in a Lotus, but... yeah I think after 2 years I'm starting to figure it out. Been waiting to try a supercharged one for about a year now. ;)

If things aren't floating downstream, the heavy stuff hasn't come in yet...

If the wake thrown up by a car isn't knocking down cones, it's not that wet. :lol:
