    OK, I might be free for Nov. 2. The wife may even let me have the day free, meaning no kids.

    Bob - how is your schedule? What time is the racing, mike?

    -juice
  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    The Nasa-x runs from about 10a-3pm/4pmish

    We'll be there from 6:30am to about 4 or 5p

    -mike
  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    Juice,

       At SPR we'll be there at 7am but first run group is probably at 9am. and last one finishes around 4-5pm.

    -mike
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    OK, I'll try to make arrangements to drive out there with Bob.

  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    Cool, maybe bob knows a local spot for dinner as well.

    -mike
  • njswamplandsnjswamplands Member Posts: 1,760

  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    Where are you racing Nov. 2? West VA, right?

    -juice

    Yes Nov. 1-2 @ Summit Point.

    Oct 25 -> Limerock
    Oct 26 -> Giant's Stadium
    Nov 10 -> Limerock

    In other news... Team IAC has an official sponsor! Today I spoke to a 2nd potential sponsor as well! Hopefully by next year we will be getting decent amounts of @cost products!

    Is 11/2 a Sunday? If so I can probably make it. If it's a Saturday, I'll probably be doing yard work (if it isn't windy).

    Bob
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    It's a Sunday, Bob. Let's plan it. I'm pretty sure I'll be free. The wife gave a preliminary OK so let's run with it before the boss changes her mind! LOL

    Is sunday.

    -mike
  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    Sounds good. I should probably head over to your place, and then we can take Rt. 28 over to 340. It's past Harpers Ferry, which ever is the best way of getting there.

    Bob
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    Yeah, Rt. 28 is just a couple exits north from me. What is it, a couple of hours?

    -juice
  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    Assuming we don't get lost. ;)

    Bob
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    I'm good at that.

    Actually, I'm a pretty good navigator/map reader, even took a course at UM.

  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    Summit Point is a few miles past Charlestown, West Virginia. I think at the far end of Charlestown you turn off of 340 on to some road, which takes you right there. Maybe another 5–6 miles or so down that road...

    Is there any cost to getting in Mike?

    Bob
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    He told me it was free.

    Well, looks like you'll have 2 extra bodies in your pit crew, mike.

    You gonna run the SVX? Is hypov joining us?

    -juice
  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    SVX? Hell no.

    SVX is retired from racing.

    The FrankenL is the racecar now. You'll get to see the trailer and trooper too! :)

    Glad to have you guys down! It'll be fun.

    Yup just outside charlestown WV and cost is free to watch :)

    -mike
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    Free? Why that's my favorite price! :o)

    Can't wait to see FrankenL. I ought to donate something for it. You want an STi short shift lever? One 15" steelie?

    paisan: You'll get something off my Forester one of these days, I'm sure. ;-)

    Have fun at the track.

  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    Shifter knob? Hmm it's an AT!!! :)

    Hey ed, we are thinking of painting it STi Pink, what do you think?

    -mike
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    We'll make it fit! LOL

    My bad...

    I can bring distilled water for the battery.

  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    as you're the driver Mike. All you'll need is a pit crew recruited from Mary Kay Cosmetics. ;)

    Bob
  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    Well we figure once it's not painted primer, we need some flair for it so people will say "what the hell is that!"

    Maybe florescent orange?

    -mike
  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    may very well be a fluorescent color. It's used with such discretion; it's hard to tell.

    Bob
  • lark6lark6 Member Posts: 2,565
    I came up with my original paint scheme for you in order to take advantage of the existing green body panels, so you wouldn't have to repaint them.

    If you're going pink maybe you could replicate the scheme of the Porsche 917 "pink pig" from the early 1970s! It was painted to resemble a dressed pig and labelled with the various butcher's cuts of meat. Has to be seen to be believed.

    Ed
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    How 'bout a camo color scheme?

    I'm half joking.

    -juice
  • hondafriekhondafriek Member Posts: 2,984
    Don't know about the states But VW marketed a multi coloured Golf in Canada, forget the year but every panel was a different colour they called it the harliquin.

      Cheers Pat.

    I remember that. I was hideous! Red, yellow, green, blue, I think. Uuuu-glee!

    one of those around every once in a while. Made you look! Pretty bizarre though. Speaking of ugly, my neighbor actually has one of those lime green Neons that Juice is so fond of mentioning. Hilarious,that makes 4 of them.

    A neon Neon, yikes!

    I bet Dodge will drop the name, seems so last decade now.

    Heading out shortly, hope to see some of you guys at SPR this weekend!!!

    -mike
  • rshollandrsholland Member Posts: 19,788
    Juice and I will be there, not sure what time yet; probably noonish? Loosh? Anyone else want to join us??

    Bob
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    Bob is coming over by 9am, we'll drive out and see you guys there. I have paisan's cell and he has mine, should be fun...

    -juice
  • paisanpaisan Member Posts: 21,181
    Thanks for coming out guys. I'll post more this evening, and pics.

    -mike
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    See MTM for my version of the story, and I'm sticking to it! ;-)

    Good time, mike, thanks for inviting us out. Not exactly kid friendly, so I'm glad I came out without my daughter. I had a blast, though.

    Loved the racing, of course, but also the pit conversations, and checking out the cars. Very no-nonsense, enthusiast crowd, tight community feel to it. And lots of Subies! 1/3rd of the cars in one race were Subarus.

    Cool. For the others, mike drove solo, so when you see 2 people in Franken L, it was a different driver.
