What takes place in the Boondoggle? Is it just an auto-x like any other, or is there something else that takes place.

The Boondoggle is simply the first AutoX of the year. From the perspective of the folks who "put on" the events (chairs, folks on steering commitee who end up working 2-3-4 work assignments, etc) is always one helluva hectic day though (thus a "boondoggle") since it seems like EVERYONE and their mother decides to come out and race that day

Cheers, Joe
That would make for an interesting season. I hope that I can find a way to prep the car better.

Damn! and I thought I had some skill.

Huh??? Your car should be just fine (well, after you get the springs back). You sure as hell won't have to worry much about me... There's a good reason why Rob's and your suspension cost a hell of a whole lot more than mine. In fact, with Ed getting a coilover setup as well I'm gonna have my work cut out for me. I may have to prostitute myself as a tire warmer for better drivers so I can learn a thing or two to stay competitive.
The parts are only work as well as I can setup the car. The problem we share is no money. I don't have wheels and tires that would keep me competitive in STX. I also corded my race tires at the last event. That damm Kumo Ecsta "groove of death" is down to the cords on 3 out of 4 tires.

I am going to also race in STX...j/k it seemed like everyone was going there. I'm going to stay in DSP. I'm pretty much finished with my suspension, so I am going to start on my power mods (all I have is an intake) to be more competitive with the integras. I had to learn how to drive my car first before I started adding more power to the equation.

see you at the boondoggle (going to miss super bowl).
