The official 2019 cancellation schedule is posted!

 

(can't personally complain much about 2018.  Suffered terminal failure exactly after getting enough events to qualify for trophies yet before the Rains came, so it's not like I would have hit those events anyway)

I guess I really need to get around to either fixing that voltage regulator or charging up a couple extra batteries...

I was going to put ZB's GTI on 2.5 wheels but I figured that might not be the best way to advertise it.

17 entries so far!  Including two from Michigan... that never happens.

I’ve got to wait until closer to the event - find out if I still have the backup car, and if it’ll be dry enough for it to run.  I’m not making corner workers push me out of mud pits.

And we have our first postponement of the season.  April 27th is off (for now) due to Mom Nature hating our cars again.

Since nobody has yet to post it , WOR's first cancellation of the year is open for registration.

Note that this is a Sunday event since we're going to be running the day after Southern Ohio Forest Rally and they use the fairgrounds for the superspecial.

Haven't had a free weekend to figure out the noise in the WRX, wheel bearing or front diff, let alone take it somewhere to fix. I wonder if Miles would repay me for all the codrives I gave him in Subarust when he didn't have a car finished?

Finally had free time and got the (very) worn wheel bearing replaced, and now it's idling like crap and giving CELs.  We ordered a IACV from Rock Auto Monday, let's see if it's running by Friday.

Beetle’s not ready, but I’m codriving with wae as long as the event doesn’t get canceled for low number of entries.

No refunds if the car breaks before you get all your runs, btw.  laugh

So the codriver takes their runs first right? To clear the grass off the course...

Been too long since I've raced, so it's not like I'm gonna send it anyway.  Hope your part throttle mapping is good.

Sadly I’m not going to make it down.

My house ended up taking a good chunk out of my racing budget.

I missed the last two rallycross dates due to weather and misfortune.  Looks like I may have to miss this one too.

 

PIEROGI FEST.  I am sure you all understand.
