I'm guessing not; it took one of the biggest hits last year already. I'm predicting a 0.002 above the average.

Make money.... Lose a lot of money.... Its just a PITA... Car isn't street legal, and tint places aren't keen on removal of stuff that old anyway. I have a steamer I'm been meaning to try on it. But I get busy and years pass.... Probably should pay somebody to come remove it, but I have so many other priorities. But I'd like to remove it then have EliteTint do it right. Need to get the bimmer done too.
I'm really in autox withdrawal. I might try to run the 9th one handed.
Really glad there's a good chance we'll have Bill to kick around next year. Yeah, tough to admit, but I really do like Bill.

I'm considering buying a late model Mustang GT to run in FS. Either that or do a few mods on my Crown Vic and continue to run in FS. I'm hoping that I'll be able to do a few Prosolos throughout the country next year.

I'm still trying to learn how to drive the Honda. After only one win this year, I'm hoping to learn to drive again and join the rest of AS in trying to catch Joey. I think the car has now caught up to the completion, now if only the driver can. It would be nice to see Curt, James Yom, Rita, and Brian jump back in and compete there as well along with the rest of us regulars.

So I'll stay in CSP and try one more time to win Nationals. I hope to be able to afford proper engine management to control my VVT intake cam; change brakes thanks to the new SP allowances, run a new top secret intake manifold, and a whole bunch of odds and ends.
Glad you are sticking around Bill. I will be back in my CSP car, hopefully with more development coming soon. I thought about selling mine and buying Brian's, but finances (with wife discouragement) convinced me to develop on my own. hopefully Jayson will be joining me

I love Brian's Miata. Jenn and I already made plans to bring our S2000 to SK1 and learn to drive a rear wheel drive car. It's a 2004, I don't know how seriously competitive the car could be, but we both have a lot of development to do as drivers before we need to worry about R comps.

I don't know what I am going to run next year. I am thinking about GP and also thinking about driving a different car (2002). I may just run BMW events with the Scirocco??? Not sure at this point.

Same $hi#, different year. I don't get to buy a new car for a year, but I may co-drive one or two SK2 cars here and there to explore other options.

Well, I guess no STU for me next year - sold my STI to Leeway Chang yesterday. I can't figure out if I'm glad to have the money and a new challenge, or I'm a complete idiot for selling a winning car. I drove my Miata in STS2 in San Diego today and it was like bringing a knife to a gunfight!

I'll be rocking out in SK2, and loving the street tire action. I am however looking forward to trying some new things (different cars at autocross) if I have the opportunity!

I would actually be very interested in Brian's car, but the timing is wrong. I'm looking forward to not having a car payment for 6 months, and subsequently saving a bit of money!
