Might as well make a new post since it’s coming up quick.

Whose planning on going?

I might be going, depends on what this weekend looks like. Anyone from the southtowns going? I would cruise out 20A to 77N to the Thruway.

Also, I’ve never been to a FLR event. What time should I be there, and how late would it run 'til?

Cooley, if you would’ve have rubber this past sunday you would’ve been a good 5-10 seconds faster I bet.

Any luck on finding any tires?

I would recomend getting there early too since parking space can be tough to come by at RIT, especially at the 1st event.

And rushman and myself will be there in the Type R, whether or not we’ll have the fancy shocks on by then is another question, but we’ll see.

Don’t wait for tires or parts (unless your car isn’t running or safe). Get your ass out there. who cares if you are slow, its just as fun (ask anyone who went Sunday). The hardest part about autocrossing is getting out to your first event. once you make it to one, its easy.

I dont’ think my car will be fixed by then but i did pre reg since they always say it is easier that way 🙂

I blew a lower coolant hose last night.

honestly slower cars are more fun and a hell of a lot easier to learn on. I wish i could go to a slower car to learn on but… once you feal it you can’t go backwards.

For anyone coming out to FLR event #1 make sure and get there early enough for a couple of extra course walks. The course is a tester, with lots of places to hang yourself.
