extra bonus- My co-driver pointed out a bald eagle on a telephone pole to Ecam and I.

Here's one of the fastest runs of the day [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSXzKePbSsk&feature=channel"]RMSolo Winter Event 2.18.12 - YouTube[/ame]

Brrrrrrrrr

Also, really fun. Great turnout for such a cold day, solid course, event ran smoothly. Great personal results.

Met coreyblee too.

On the downside, my buddies truck broke down on the way back.

registration closes at 10 tomorrow, come have some fun!

On an interesting side note, and probably not the right place for it, but I saw a 50+ year old guy driving a Cobalt SS (White) with roll cage/harness bar racing seats and harnesses driving down I25 tonight. Cool as can be. Wasn't this guy by chance, was it? If so, he is a great guy. http://www.rmso...

My 03 P5 will turn 100k in the next month or two. Timing belt time..

It's easy, inexpensive, and a total blast! I'm happy to help if you have questions, come find me and ge...

There were tools open and visible. Things an unscrupulous person would take advantage of. Good ideas and points, we welcom...

The variety of cars there really made the point that these events are more about the driving and fun than anything elders. The drivers/people were all very friendly. The eve...

I'll be spectating, prob won't make fan fest.

FSP is the class the car runs in.
If you liked you brother's car, come try a lighter, higher power, much stiffer suspended, higher grip version

Look me up and get some rides- I'll be giving the safety talk at the drivers meeting and driving the silver FSP Scirocco

Registration for the http://rmsolo.org/ autocross at Front Range Airport is open until the morning of 1/12. Come out of motosports hibernation and have some fun!

(fwiw this far out) weather forecast is dry, cool, and sunny.

Is this the rust issue where the bumper cover bolts to the rear of the wheel well arch? The Protege5 also has the issue. I recently checked both joints on my car, and had to sand/ prime/paint a small rust patch on one joint. If the joint is similar on the 3, the issue is with water and grit getting ...

Where have you autocrossed before, and what was it like?
