For anyone who is car-less and looking for a codrive - may I suggest offering to pay for the entry fee for the driver. You may have a better shot of finding a ride. ---

Cool. I work with Mike.

Will the Integra be better for autocrossing or is the MR2 just getting tired? ---

Just so no one gets a nasty suprise at 8 in the morning, if you are under 18, please print out the minor waiver (see the [wny-scca.com](http://wny-scca.com) solo forums for details) and have both your parents fill out 2 copies and sign them. ---

And the MR2 is being retired for a few reasons, but the main one being that it’s just time for something new and different. The Camaro is a ton of fun, and I knew with the Type R that I would have really good local competition. ---
