    "rest of the season"? My season is just starting.

    [/b]
    I&#39;m in the same boat as Will.. Planning to do both the RAL regional and enduro, then the Cheap Date weekend and maybe the NARRC-offs..

    I hate it when real life intervenes on a perfectly good race season..

    Well, since we only get to count eight races for the NARRC points and I have competed in seven - I guess I will do one more race. I know I will miss the one point for the start of the race I opt out of. I do feel Doc&#39;s breath on my neck though.

    If you win out, you can take 2nd place in ITA from the Crazy Guy...actually, it would take less than that...

    Tim I certainly appreciate the respect shown, however, I&#39;m no threat and never have been. I just enjoy racing and as I&#39;ve said before I do it as often as possible because winter&#39;s soo long. My car&#39;s a bit battered and bruised and has been to the frame shop yet again. This is probably the straw that broke the camels back as we can only get 2 of the 4 wheels pointed in the same direction. That number is down from a season high of three wheels pointing in the same direction!!!

    That is correct. If all I do this weekend is get the point for the start it gives me 104. All it would take Timmy is a Win at NHIS and a 3rd at the Narrc offs = 105 or two second places =106 and you got me.

    Now if I finished second at NHIS it gives me 107. That means you need to win and place second at LRP= 109

    Now if I win at NHIS that is 110 for me. That means you need a 2nd at NHIS and a win at the NARRC offs = 112

    I&#39;m not even going to get into tie scenarios.

    See Andy isn&#39;t the only fool that sits and figures this crap out.

    The great math minds at work are for naught - I&#39;ll say it again, I am only doing 8 races this season, that means only one more race for CPM Motorsports.

    Robert - Sorry to hear about the Z3 - you are having a great run this year.

    Should Carol be my special guest at the NARRC Runoffs?

    Is that 8 races in total or 8 Narrc? If it is 8 total save your pennies and make the trip to the ARRC.

    Hey Joe - NARRC only - I am looking at some other races to finish up the season - still haven&#39;t been to WGI.

    Your silver medal is safe, it&#39;s the bronze medal that&#39;s really up for grabs.

    I put the race package on the scales (trailer and truck) and it weighed in at 19,500 lbs (12,500 on the trailer) - a lot to pull to the ARRC - Altough I would love to go again and race RA. CPM Motorsports is sporting a new track support vehicle - it could be putting a dent in the fuel budget for the ARRC - we&#39;ll have to see how the rest of the season goes.

    We weighed our rid on the way home from Mid Ohio... We came in at a little over 28,000lbs... I think stephens 5th place trophie is what brought it up so much, good thing we were not in the top 3

    The ARRC is fun, but so isn&#39;t the Glenn if you have never been! We should be at the Fun one with the Porsche and at the Last Chance with an Audi for the Enduro, be sure to visit

    I have two weekends left on my schedule. the MARRS labor day double and the MARRS race to the finish on the 9/22-23. I am looking forward to the double, I know it typically has a huge field, and I expect better then average turn out, but not as many license keepers since this year its a single sanction event (double points for MARRS.)

    Other then some instructing weekends from now till november that will be it for my race season.

    I am having memory fade but I think it is a Ford F350 turbo deisel 4X4 Dually... Standard 6 speed. The truck certainly works hard on the hills. "Low gear" is amaizing to me. It is almoast impossible to drive the truck in low gear with nothing in tow, it is just to low, however with our trailer it is impossible to get it rolling using 1st gear, you need that low gear to start!!! Certainly gives you respect for the weight.

    19,500 lbs is a lot for 1 car...

    Ray, any chance Stephen would consider bringing his Audi to the Fun One? You know, practice for the enduro.

    I still quite can&#39;t seem to figure out the remainder of my schedule. Our t.v. is on its way out and Melissa brought to my attention that the cost to attend the ARRC would buy us a new one.
