    Ry,

    I looked on the internet and couldn't find any wide wheels with a good offset for your car. It looks like something custom like Jason Uyeda's wheels are going to be the only option.

    Students, if you intend to pre-register be sure to sign up by April 2. After that, only day-of-event registration is available, and it's an additional $15.

    Online registration is here

    Only one day left to pre-register at the discounted price of $35! Online registration closes on Wednesday, April 2. The weather forecast is showing a high of 70 degrees with only a 10% chance of rain; it's perfect autocross weather.

    Registration is here (fixed the link)

    Hmm, seems you have entered a link to some of your "camera porn" instead of the correct link...  http://motorsportreg.com/calendar/event.cfm?uidEvent=AA5F2589-9398-28B4-BA31958DEFA8D34C

    How disgusting.  Drew, that stuff is obscene.  All the lenses and film, and other camera paraphernalia and stuff.  I've never seen such filth.

    Yes, bring chairs.  Those buckets aren't too comfortable after 20 minutes.

     

    Chris and I have almost re-assembled the Cobra... I look forward to drifting driving around those cones again.

     

    Unfortunately, the missus (Bonnie) will not be attending this year.  She wanted to, but she has work to do this weekend.

    I hope we are able to use the other gate to get into the airport. Im sure that little gravel road will be nice and swampy for this weekend.

    Re: Grenada Autocross School: April 5 2008

    Skip and I talked about the site entrance. We're going to use the regular (gravel road) entrance unless it's out of commission (he'll check in the morning).

    Basically, just follow the cones and it'll get you there.

    Will the gates have pointers on both sides indicating exactly where the gate is? I might get lost if they don't.

    That's a rhetorical question and you know it.

    Re: Grenada Autocross School: April 5 2008

    Well, the weather has changed my plans.  My mother's neighborhood in north Jackson got hit by a either a tornado or very strong straight-line winds this afternoon, and she has some minor damage to her house.  Nothing too bad and nobody got hurt, thankfully.  The neighbors weren't so lucky.  The houses across the street and next door all have major damage from falling trees.  Anyway, I need to stay here tomorrow morning and help her clean up and assess things.  I'll try to get up there Sunday if I can.  Sorry to leave you guys shorthanded on instructors for the school.

    Glad you made it today, Craig.  Sorry to hear about your mother, but glad it wasn't worse.

     

    I want to thank everyone that helped the FSAE team today. We had some troubles with our ECU fuel map, and were not able to get the car running well enough to make a complete lap.  I really enjoyed the school, and hopefully learned how to "not suck".  It was really nice getting to talk to everyone and hopefully get some good PR for the Formula team.  We leave for VIR in 2 weeks(!).

    Update on the pictures

     

    A lot of pictures were taken by Phuong (Phil) and me today.  I think the ratio was 1:3 of good pictures (mostly due to Phuong being a noob and my aching neck and wrist).  I should have majority of the pictures done by the weekend.  When they are up and if you want a higher resolution photo as a background, shoot me a message or email me at haison.cao@us.army.mil.  Also if you want the originals, shoot me a message or email also.  Those might take a little longer since I have to sort them out.  I'll be back on the coast Tuesday and will get working on them.
