Another interesting weekend battling the elements! Although my buddy with the 618CTR was finally supposed to be ready, more delays at the shop prevented him from coming out this weekend – might have been to his advantage anyway due to the rain. Hopefully he’ll be ready for the next big double header 7/11-12. I did…
Second home event of the year. Didn’t go that great, but more on that later. Stressful start to the day, as I decided to do worker assignments as my work assignment, and had a lot of trouble getting enough workers for heat 1. I also had some of my friends from Champaign who wanted to…
Boeing 1 had unfortunately been canceled due to rain, and there was real possibility for this event to be canceled as well. The forecast wasn’t looking good, but fortunately the morning was relatively dry, and so the event was on, regardless of what rain would come down later. Doubly lucky, being a Saturday event this…
Didn’t feel like I was the season was underway without the first home points event! Decided to dual drive the Mini & the Evo this event, and in general I will be dual driving most Stl Solo points events, as I have the ability to work Heat 1 and Registration, in order to maximize seat…
First event of the year in the Evo was the annual CCSCC school & Test n Tune. Had a great time out here last year in the Mini and I thought it’d be a good chance for me to take out the Evo, get more seat time in the car and get more comfortable with…
Annual kick-off test n tune with Stl Solo @ Family arena. Great event and went very smoothly. With events now $40/per, $45 for a tnt is extremely good bang for the buck. After a so-so first event with the CCSCC, the TnT was a good chance for me to get acclimated in the Mini again.…
ith Chicago region being down, and our neighboring CSCC in Indy being down as well, there was a huge turnout and lots of talent at the event. With the stiffer bumpstops and this being my girlfriend’s first event, I decided to put the sway bar in the middle setting. I was really happy with how…
Had our 2014 banquet today, collected some hardware! First award was the 2014 HS class champion award. Similar to 2013’s but larger and actually says the year. The next award is the index award. I wanted to make top 20 index this year, and was able to reach that goal at 17th. Finally, I received…
Great end to the year! Had been debating between going to St Louis’s Gateway track event & this one, but in the end I decided to see my friends at CCSCC one more time. It was a good choice. Great event on Saturday. Cold, but I enjoyed the course. It was a very traditional/standard CCSCC course.…
With the final points event of the year done, I’m more readily able to drive my Evo at some of these end of the year events. Last Sunday was one of them. It turned out to be more of a test n tune than anything, but helped me get used to the Evo a little…
