Post by deadeyeb » Sat Mar 04, 2006 9:57 pm

being a new member and looking for help to set up my car, do they allow non racers at the event to walk through the pits.

You are more than welcome to attend and talk to drivers and the instructors. You should look for someone with a similar car, and they would be able to help you and answer questions. This forum is also a great tool to discuss car preparation, classing of the car, discuss driving experiences and such.

Yes, no problem. They do have to sign in at the gate, but all are welcome (kids too).

If you know how to work on Mustangs (or even if you don't) you can hang with the cool guys...plus our cars are always braking so it add to the fun.

I'm confused,,,,how can the term, "cool guys" , Mustangs and broken cars be used in the same sentence. Replace Mustang with Miata and broken with reliable, then you have proper sentence structure. :lol:

Actually, isn't it the Mustangs (one yellow one in particular) that has trouble 'braking'? And yes, all seem to have issues 'breaking'. :lol:

What good is the editing feature if you can't get away with editing your post ? :oops:

If you want to have plenty of time to eat your cheeze and drink your wine then the Miata garage is for you. If you want chips, beer (after the driving) and occational profantiy come on down. Dan we'll still let you into the Mustang garage, but keep the cheeze and wine hidden will ya ?

If you feel like replacing wheel studs or rethreading brake calipers or figuring out how to uncord tires, stop by the Subaru camp. We're usually one of the earliest to get in, and the last to leave :)

Whats this about wine ?????? My Mustang can hold 4 cases of GREAT New York State wine and still do a 2:25 lap at Watkins Glen :lol: Too bad we won't be going to WGI this year--- those winerys are fun.

Whats this about Scott's transmission, I could use a new one too ! Anybody have a spare ?

I also have a Miata but I think I'm going to sell it , my dogs have been using it for a house :shock: See I knew they are good for something..

Fred B stop by the "MG" trailer and have a glass of wine and some cheese and we can talk about which is more fun , a Mustang or Miata :P
