That was all just..insanity. it was a blast and I can't wait to go again for sure. Thanks for comin Bruce, was good to have someone other then just Oleg there. Same to you Tim. Hopefully next time your car will be in better shape and we can run together.

BTW what happens at the test and tune?

Is that you Mark?

The test and tune is a series of exercises for racing or AutoX. One of the instructors told me about it.

test'n'tune is an autox event that BMW CCA holds (no membership required). they run two short courses and you get something like 20 runs. instructors are around. they don't record the times. these events sell out really fast. the next one is for aug 9, but i doubt anyone can get in.

Thanks Bruce. 87 years is a long time to live. First time I was a bearer. On a plus side it was the first time in almost 8 years the entire family got together.

Doesn't look like it. Still on the waiting list. Be working on the house tomorrow. But will be at the next Miata AutoX on Aug 16.

Mark and Oleg, are you coming on the 16th?

 

[Zelse]

I am for sure. Can't wait.

Mark and Oleg, are you coming on the 16th?

Yes, 16th for sure. The Aug 9th event (Test'n'Tune) was limited to 60 cars, as they wanted to run only one course. So that's unfortunate, but those events sell out *really* fast even with the previous 100-120 person limit.
