    Been a while... maybe too long.

    Anyways... WHERE WAS EVERYONE yesterday???

    Andy, Boxer, and myself were the only three regulars attending.

    Loaded 10 AI guys and proceeded to start the race at Monte Carlo... Started it three times, as a matter of fact... lol

    Andy and I ended up in the water towards the end of the race.

    Boxer won! WTG Boxer!

    Next week's event will be at Phillip Island, available through the workshop.

    Hope to see more people there next weekend.

    Over and out,

    Bryan

    I've really missed my Sparky, but we've been re-united recently so I'll see you guys this Saturday at Phillip Island. It's a neat track, I know it from iRacing but this version has a wee different feel to it. It's fun! It's rubbered in. It's waiting for us...bring your meanest F3 Machine!

    Woohoo, Sparky's pulled of a 1-2 finish. Been a while. Fun race as usual.

    Yeah Paul, we snaked and slithered through the mess to achieve our rightful place in Sparky racing history. Really fun but sad to see that others must fail for me to win ;)
    Bryan had a bad conn/Windows deal or something and Andy has a reoccurring problem with stealthiness that bit him. Sorry they both missed the race because the more the merrier!
    I'll miss next week again but should be back on track for the Summer. (Winter for the S.H.)

    Still had fun this week even tho the numbers were down. Shame there isn't more peeps into the historics. They are so much fun. Used to be so popular. Hopefully some of the regulars are back for the next one.

    Neet little track that Nogaro...we all thought it was in Japan but it's French. Like a little motorcycle circuit, many tight turns and tight runoffs. Really fun! Not enough drivers failed for me to win but got Sparky on the podium! JimC won by a mile. Or two.
    BB's testing Norisring now...might be up next week.

    Sorry guys, I've just booked my weekend activities for well into October. Blame Trump. And Ford.

    See, I wasn't going to get myself an autocross car for another year or two, maybe not until my pension starts in November 2020, but then Trump is banging on about tariffs and trade wars, so it behooved me to not wait since odds are that the new cars I can afford will have a tariff added. Researching a few candidates and discovering that the Ford Focus ST is a good bet in its class and Ford is offering significant discounts to get rid of them because they'll only make Mustangs, Trucks, and SUVs from now on... well, I bought one a week ago and ran my first autocross in 12 years on Sunday to properly break her in (aaargh, wheelspin city).

    So meet "Pepper", my mid-life weekend fling:

    P.S. God what an awful car to try commuting in. I'm so happy I don't have to do that. Now it's just taking 90-200 mile highway cruises to get to a "local" autocross.
