Looking for co-drive for Jan 9 & 10

[Robert Puertas]

Hey folks,

Pat Salerno is going to be in town on business (not Evo, his real job) and he asked me to fill his dance card for the weekend.

Anybody willing to let him drive your car? He'd prefer an SS ride, but beggars can't be choosers...

[Max Hayter]

Mark and I will probably run my car in STR. He could run it in STR PAX if he likes... I would welcome his input.

[Mako Koiwai]

What's the STR PAX index?

[Tom Tanquary]

I'm sure he'll get better offers before then but I'll offer to be the last ditch choice. I'll have new rubber by then but.... it's just a BS SK1 ride.

Yikes, he already did before I finished typing.

[Max Hayter]

What's the STR PAX index?

.002 less than STU. .840 I think. ST will kick our ass!

[Mako Koiwai]

Will Pat be here for Sat. Practice ?

[Robert Puertas]

Yes, he should be around for both Sat & Sun.

I guess I probably need to do something to get him into the practice, eh?

[Mako Koiwai]

What they did for Brian P was make him an official instructor for the day

[Eric Clements]

I've got a shifter kart. He could co-drive with Jon and me...and then Jon can have the distinction of having kicked Pat's butt in a junior kart *and* in an F125 kart.

[Robert Puertas]

Eric,
I like the way you think!
}:)

[pat salerno]

I finally got back onto the board.

I am good with instructor for a day.....

Oh, the Clemens kid is going down in a shifter kart....I think he weighs more than me now....The jr Kart was a different story....sand bagging little kid.....

[pat salerno]

I can not wait to feel warm weather again. Highs of 20 is just great.
I appreciate the offeres. I am hoping to run the practice and the event.

[Bill Schenker]

Pat - As I told Robert, I'd be HAPPY to let you drive my car, BUT, in '10 I'm hoping to try something novel: have a car that doesn't break down at EVERY event. To help meet this ambitions plan, I'm cutting way back on driving the car, and other than Tours and Nats., won't be having a co-driver this year.

Hope you understand; besides, looks like you already have great offers w/Max, Tom T. and the "kid" that will kick your butt...

[Steve Ekstrand]

Is Curt Luther going to be opening the book on the Salerno-Clements Death Match???

[Mari Clements]

Oh, the Clemens kid is going down in a shifter kart....I think he weighs more than me now....

He says he weighs 150. Maybe. If we weigh him right after he drinks a gallon of milk.

The jr Kart was a different story....sand bagging little kid.....

Not a little kid, though, at 6'2".

His comment on all this? "What have you gotten me into?"

Looking forward to seeing you soon, Pat!

[John Prosser]

Pat
If you still need a ride you can co-drive my S2000 on Sun.

Good call. With Pat's "helmet" issue, a convertible is really a must.

[Mako Koiwai]

... thus the Go-Kart co-drive!

[Steve Ekstrand]

I thought Pat had experienced "significant shrinkage issues" in the helmet department.
