when you get on the website, hit the british flag to get the english version
I raced w/ these guys last year and they're a blast.

come on down and lets try and beat some Subie's
I'll be there!!!!

bump

 

bump.... c'mon, nobody wants to Auto-X???? It is not hard and won't kill your car.

plus you'll be a much improved street driver... I will be happy to provide pointers to anybody who needs the instruction!!!

 

A. Thats my birthday!

B. Thats 10 minutes from my place!

C. My car is slow! For now. Mwuhahahahaha.

 

I will be racing with the SCCA this year, head on down to Joliet on the 15th for the first event!

 

a. im on airbags
b. im slow
4. im a pussie and wont drive in chicago

 

slow is sometimes fast on the right Auto-X track.... more power is harder to control for some.
i ran the beginning of last season in a 150hp Neon R/T and was top 3 in my class...
Auto-X'ing is good for you, it will hone your skills... at least come down to track and say hello!!

How did you make out with Empire and the domed decals?

15th of April? .... what do they charge non members?

A. yes you are on bags
B. see response to halfcent
C. I've seen you drive!!!

seriously, I don't know what auto-x'ing with bags would be like?
the bags make you heavier right?

 

$35. I didn't pay for a membership but I still plan on running the whole season, it is cheaper.

 

$35 is fine!! is the race on 15th this April????

 

This is a polish car club. These guys are nuts. Very fun group of people. I autoX with them many times. These guys like to drift every corner so to beat them all you have to do is be smooth and consistent....since they take the scores of your best couple of runs and combine them.

good luck

 

my boyfriend has about 15k is suspension work...ill see if he wants to head out there...its his birthday weekend.

 

Yeah, but I checked the registration. It is full, 173 people!! This should be fun...

NUTS??? drift or no drift.... them boys are fast!

thanks for the luck.... i'll need it.... i noticed there is a 350Z in my class

that would be a nice birthday gift .... sign up online

173 people.... geeze, how many runs do you get??? oh well maybe next time I'll head out w/ you!
let me know when that event is

regardless, good luck .... If I'm not busy on the 15th, I'll head down and cheer you on
where in joliet is this?

 

Wow that is a lot of people. They are not the most orginized club. And just because someone signed up online that does not mean they will be there. You pay at the track. Get there early. Have fun. I would be there but we are going to be at Autobahn, in Joliet, IL....drifting. If you are in the area come out.

 

the SCCA event is 173 peeps..... Auto Klub Polski is like 45 - 60 peeps.... sometimes we get 6 runs
did I hear AUTOBAHN.... whats going on out there?
I'll be out there by there by end of the month to do some lapping

 

aahh okay...I though we were still talking about The Polish Club.

Autobahn will have Drift Day 14 there. They have a new go-cart track there and it should be sweet. Its $10 to spectate.

 

the drifting is this Sunday the 15th? at what time does it start?
are you entered in this competition?

 

Schedule
7:30 - Gates Open
8:00 - Tech Inspection
8:50 - Mandatory Drivers Meeting
9:00 - Practice starts
3:00 - Competition Drivers Meeting
3:10 - Single Run Qualifications
4:30 - Top 8 Tandem
5:45 - Awards/Cleanup

that is the schedule....you can come out any time. it's $10 to spectate. Bring a helmet and you might be lucky to get a ride form a few guys. There will be 40 cars there.

Yes I am entered in.

 

It is in the "pits" of the Route 66 Raceway (the dragstrip). It was a blast, we each got 5 runs (were supposed to get 6) and there were a total of 191 drivers!! I won't be able to make it to the 2nd event, but will definitely be able to make it to the 3rd. I got 10th out of 77 in open street tire, I think that I did pretty well. I told myself that I would run the whole season (5 out of 8 events) if I could finish in the top 10, looks like I need to keep that promise to myself.

 

sounds like fun...you did very well overall.... 10th out of 77 is excellent
we should definitely meet and talk car and track...
I will PM you with my cel #
