Mercedes autoX #1 is April 17.

In the past, I have offered to buy lunch for any S2000 driver that comes within 1 second of my morning raw times. I wonder if that would convince some S2000 people to come on out?
I had actually thought of doing something similar with the Z guys, but I'll let you be the guinea pig I suppose.

hey FYI the philly schedule is up. They're doing an event in Dover on the 20th which is probably pretty close for a lot of you.

Some body offered that to me 2 years ago and I offered it to somebody new also, that newbie got way better than me but I never got way better than any body.

I'll be Arkansas Aprl 17.

Well it is either my S2000 on almost corded Nito NT01R r-comps (track tires) or my wifes STI on 1.5 year old, beat to death Starspecs. I usually go to Ledo's for lunch (roasted turkey bacon ranch sandwhich FTW!).

Both cars have completely stock engine and drivetrain, both have coilovers. BSP or STU respectively. I am more likely to be in the STI so my wife and I can drive down together but if enough S2000s plan on going I'll bring the S2000.


I have a MX-5 that I am building up as an STR car but not sure it will be ready?



See you there! You running street tires or r-comps?

Thanks for the tire advice guys.

And Pete, I'll take you up on your lunch bet It'd be fun to run against you in your S2k one of these times too.

I don't think I was even close in the one event we did together last year though!

Btw, how much is an MBCA membership? I might want to run more than two events with them this year.

Cool! I might have to limit it to you and an2ny (my wife will be like "You are buying how many people lunch?"


I think it is $45 a year for Mercedes. That also gets you into any track events that they run, national magazine (actually pretty nice) etc.
