If all goes well they will have fun runs at $1 each, so you'll get 8 runs for $39 i dont think of autoX as "seat time" but some people do so youll be happy to know its 8 minutes of it (since their courses are usually 50-80 seconds...unlike other organizationz heheheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee)
The above comment is why i even posted in the thread. After mentioning it a few guys today (guys who go to UFO), they all felt it was unwarranted as well.

UFO gives people seat time like you mentioned Racenut, so i guess I'll just leave it at that and not bother trying to defend against why things are the way they are with SCCA events.

I'd be all about SCCA if i lived up there, im just trying to convince people to come down, most that come say its closer than they thought. But of course im gonna make UFO look better to random guests reading the threads, its just business and i want Marina to stay there for a while, since it was closed a few years back.

Yeah there are a lot of retards at UFO.

But the difference comes when you look at the population to drivers, im no expert but what, 10 million people in the Bay area, maybe 1 million in the Monterey bay area. So UFO's 10 good drivers = SCCA's 100 good drivers so there really is little difference IMO not to mention there is more money in the bay, so they SHOULD be better, on paper.

But saying that youll learn nothing doesnt have anything to do with being 1st in a group of retards or last in a group of professionals. You learn no matter what place you get or what sport you are doing.

I got
59.8
59.2
59.6
then i got sick of plowing into turns and decided to rally them and got a
58.805

Racenut got a 57.XXX. I think he ruled all the suby drivers.

That Red Evo kicked some ***, didnt see 1 STi keeping up with him...but thats why Rallyx was invented.

Boo to no Monterey guys not getting up early to take pics of me and being hungover from HIN is the lamest excuse ever LOL!!! i dont blame you, i'd drink too if i went.

Racenut Productions filmed me, and i got videos of him, Theo and a few other random subies.

Heh.. let me know if you get anything posted on YouTube or whatever. As for plowing, I think you could still go quite a bit lower on the front tire pressure. I didn't want to lower it too much all at once.

My runs were - 1:00.141 - 59.379 - 58.764 - 57.685

My wife did - 1:04.586 - 1:03.511 - DNF - 1:02.775

She keeps improving and I'm pretty stoked that she's trying so hard

good stuff kyle and other iclubbers... u guys need to catch the evos, their starting to talk shyt haha

you have to remember you learn from your competitors... I rather get last with top notch drivers learning new tricks and setups,

then run with retards and just assume I am doin everything right....

no reason to bash on other organizations some of us like the competition
But i am not bias I run with both clubs, I like UFO cause team NAWWWSSSS, jdm, touge, drifterzzz,,VIP,,HIN or whatever they are called come out and they see me pull up in the ricer mobile, kinda laugh and giggle at me then they get whooped on i love the feeling

I read some AutoX books last year, but forgot how to setup my car to make it do what i want.

I also forgot which way to turn my KYB AGX ***** to stiffen them up so i left it on MtnSpec y0

Yeah shes doing really good. shes just 2 seconds, and 4 runs experience behind your first time.
