Just got an alignment, apparently one of my bolts was jacked up so I could only get -1 camber in front. Sucks. And my driver side axle is shot so its shaking under load.

This should be interesting...

Yeah, a good track weekend will leave you feelin' wiped.

Sorry I didn't make it out. When the 3rd car in my group came down with troubles, we just gave up (deaths come in threes).

The probs were electric, and we think we MIGHT have had them fixed by 1 am while still in Chicago, but at that point she didn't want to go, had the long trip home to Minneapolis after whatever track time she would get, and she was convinced our weekend was cursed and she'd end up in the guardrail.

There's always next year.

Hope fun was had by all.... and my engine is done in a week or so.

Me and the +1 (Krista) had a great time. A little rain on Friday night and into Saturday morning other than that the weather was fantastic.

The organizers of this event did a great job in keeping things moving along and on schedule. Well worth the $260 for the weekend. I will be looking forward to next year.

Good to see Sam finally on the track but I hate having to point him by. He is a very fast learner.

Thanks Phill, I am really pleased that you and Pat were finally able to talk me into going, I had an absolute blast and I think I'm hooked!

This was a really great time, nice meeting some new faces and seeing so many S's out there.

I'm uploading the pics right now, I'll post them up shortly.

Oh yeah, FTR - Pete, you were right, and I'm openly admitting it once again.
