suneil, at this time were looking at the first weekend of june. This will hopefully allow people to finish up school business and the weather should be a bit warmer.

Thats 15 Gas fill up there and back. hopign i get an extra 30 on non stop highway. To bad my cruise control is broke for some odd reason. man thats like $400 in gas at $25 a tank. guess thats not to horrible. I spend $140 a month as it is lol. guess this trip will be much cheaper then i thought. I was gonna bring like 2k! lol.
LOL I spent more than $400 on gas this year alone! Nothing like a 40 mph head wind to cut the mileage down to 6 mpg.

That was hilarious. I was dying laughing when i saw that. Btw, I contacted the Fort Wayne scca division and hopefully they respond back with some good news about setting up an autocross.
