    No kidding???!! Excellent, I'm there then. A bit spooked after accidentally hitting a SRF in the Cup a couple of weekends ago. Don't like racing with those little things.

    I didn't see it, but I can imagine! They don't bother us too much... not as good as that Z for a tow, but not bad either.

    Exactly! I hit that thing and not to make light of it but the rear flew off like 10 ft in the air and I thought "oh shit I killed it!". Fortunately it did hardly any damage to the SRF and the Z got the worst of that end.

    I'm interested in purchasing a ride (ECR or otherwise). Just fired up the car and it's leaking coolant into the rotor housings. Not likely to get fixed by this weekend and I need one race to keep my license current. Let me know if anyone has a spot.

    Thanks,
    Sean

    Turns out we were confused about the whole ECR A vs. B thing so I do have a seat on the Golf - $550 for half the ECR, special deal. I'm traveling so call my cell - 336-509-1264 - to talk about it.

    Somebody be sure to stop by the #93 paddock and say hello to Edwin McCain. Nice guy. Met him at Double School at Roebling last season.

    I have an enduro at Road Atlanta the next weekend or I would have been at VIR.

    Hoop - good to see you and great run!

    Ron, you kicked butt in the SARRC man. 4th in taht field is a nice job.

    How about those way cool trophies with the car's picture on them? Way to go NCR, that is a nice touch.

    Who tangled with the yellow #24 SRF in the CCPS at VIR? (trying to use as many acronyms as possible)

    I want to echo the sentiment regarding the fine trophies that were handed out at VIR by the NC Region. Since it was my first ever automobile racing trophy, and with a checkered flag to go with it in the CCPS , I could not have been more pleased. Kudos to those in the club that made those trophies happen.

    Also, congratulations to all those that did well in the multi-climate ECR!
