Yup, pretty much entirely. The comment made so much sense, all I could give it was the eye roll, to be accopanied by a drum roll and someone jumping out from off stage saying, "That's our Mako!" :lol:

The One And Only ... slinking off stage now ... :unimpressed: :lol:

(I forgot we had this one at El Toro ... I guess one way or the other, ie. Divisonal or not. I had mistakenly told some newbies that last weekend was it for El Toro this year.)

We also have the August event at El Toro, I believe two weekends after NOTLD at Cal Speedway.

That makes *two* more events at El Toro Mako!

Is it any scary than a dozen Pasadena PD guns? Including a few muzzle bruises? And in the middle of it a rookie screeming "GUN! GUN! GUN! GUN!".

I'm still here. Didn't think I would be.

Darn, was hoping there'd be a two-day event that weekend to help pull more AZ people out. Jay and I will likely be there regardless.

Too bad it couldn't have been an AZ Div. Brian. :( :( :( Could have pulled more AZ people for that. I know some were looking to run it rather the Tour and now will have to pay the $180 wavier for Nats this year. With 3 in my car alone this will give SCCA $540 in wavier fees :shock: :shock: which is over half of our tire budget. :cry: :cry: :cry:

So you think someone could drive from AZ, spend a night or two here, enter the event and drive home for less than $180? :roll:

Sure would be nice to get something other than the sniveling BS digs out of our Divisional "solo leader". Can't we drive him away? GO AWAY!!!!

i just made that up :o

i was talking about the idea during the pro . doesnt jay w have lights?

pros = two day event
would also change up the flavor .. the adrenaline rush of a pro just might be worth the extra work. i can help

would this disrupt the points race or could it be added to the points ..etc just throwing the idea out there again hopefully it doesnt annoy anyone

The Committee decided it will be a regular practice and championship, and that won't be changing. Nice try Ringer!
