Re: My first offical race was today

I've really wanted to try out rallycross, and I could give two shits about my paint, I just don't have the ambition to drive that far.

Re: My first offical race was today

It's only about 1-1/2 hours from the cities. I am coming from New Prague so it's a little further for me. It's not really that bad of a drive. It's like driving to Rock Falls only a little shorter.

BTW, you don't chip your paint that bad. I rallycrossed my old talon for 3 years and it didn't do much to my paint at all. Just find some mudflaps to put on there and you're golden.

I think you'd care less about the 1 little tiff that might come from it after you ran the event. If you liked AUTO X you'll love this as well.

Just do it, give it one shot. You won't be disapointed! I'll be out there to film and watch. We need to get TKR in the EVO out there as well!!!

Yeah, lots of people raced new daily drivers simply because it don't really do much of anything to the car. Rain or shine it's always a great time.

Eric I'm going with Roll'n Joe as it looks right now. I can't wait to make another video again.

Re: My first offical race was today

Yeah, maybe. But the paint is already starting to go on the hood, and its making me mad. Maybe i'll try it some time tho, i'll just have to make Anthony go with me, seeing how there is no way the vett would go and i'm not making the drive myself.

Just let me know next time a few of you head out there.

Re: My first offical race was today

Looks like sunday is going to be the better of the 2 days this weekend. It won't be in the 90's like saturday is supposed to be. And lucky me gets to set up the course on saturday!!!

We are heading out this weekend, so go with Sunday. Did you want any of the videos?

Check out the 2003 Tax Break Rally Cross. THat basically what you'll be dealing with. Hell, if Jana would say ok I'd have no hesitation about running the 6, and that's a new car.

Re: My first offical race was today

I would go this weekend, but I am going camping. I dont know who all is going to the shoot out, but I know I am stuck back here in Minnesota, so if you guys are going out next weekend I'll be sure to go.

Re: My first offical race was today

Rally Cross events only happen once every 1 to 2 months.

But now I don't even know if I will go, we might be looking at houses Sunday from 10-2 now.
