    Columbus, September 27th and 28th

    Who's going, who's not, who will be recovering from Nationals?

    The FSAE crew will hopefully make a triumphant return, maybe even get to compete against Alabama again.  This time, all of the wheels should stay attached...

    Put me in the recovering from Nationals group.  Hopefully I'll make it to at least the last Columbus event in December.

    I am not going to make it out to this event too guys.  My weekends this month are booked for photography.  Hopefully I will be able to make it out there for November because I need my autocrossing fix.

    Shoot! My last final is on the 27th and I'll probably be going through the area on the 30th. Sad

    I will be there to wear out those Kuhmo MX's so I can snag a set of Dunlops for Tri-state.

    So the VW met its match in the torrential downpours we had about 4 weeks ago:

    hydroplaned around a corner, slide down a ditch and a tree bought me a new car:

    Re: Columbus, September 27th and 28th

    Glad to hear you're alright, but I wish I could wreck my car and upgrade to an STI.  I'll have to try that when we get another good downpour.

    Re: Columbus, September 27th and 28th

    Yea...sorry Brian, i decided against buying your STi.  Cost significantly greater, gas $500 more per year and insurance another $500 more per year were too much.
