Re: Smokies Oct 4

These cars are built for one thing and that's autocross and if these guys didn't take it seriously then I would loose interest in the sport. :-)

Re: Smokies Oct 4

I haven't heard my name on this forum this much since 2006 when John and I were leaving Ft. Myers. lol I have been out of the sport for a year and this was my first local event in over a year. To say that the course was fair or not I don't feel like should be focus here but the fact that a course wa...

Re: Nationals 2015 Master Thread

John,

Mark and I are leaving out about 5am Sunday so you are more than welcome to run with us if you like? Heck we have room so you could always ride with us too?

Re: Trailer to rent

I would just go get a tag because its a one time purchase. I ran a trailer for years with no tag but got pulled over in GA about not having a tag. You need one for the trailer if the state you are in requires it even if the state you are from requires it or not. Take it from me after spending more t...

Re: Trailer to rent

Thanks Brian but I sold my trailer earlier this year so I am not in the market for another trailer right now, but I will keep it in mind. Sounds like a great price!

Thank you,
Robert

Re: Trailer to rent

Ted and Randy, Thank you and I will get with one of you guys. My truck is a F-250 and I haven't had brakes on my trailer for years so stopping the trailer isn't a problem with the light weight cars I have been running for years now. I need to talk with Mark to make sure we are on the same page on wh...

Trailer to rent

Dear ETR family, I have found myself where I am needing to rent a trailer for SCCA solo2 nationals in September. I have neve not had a trailer to take of my own so I have never had to ask this question. Mark and I will be going out to nationals this year and I am not even sure what day we will be go...

Thank you Mark McCrary and Mazda!

I wanted to thank Mark as well as Mazda for giving me the chance to go to Naitonals this year. This year has been a real hard year with a lot of kids stuff going on and taking all my autocross funds away. Well when things were looking to be a bleak as they can be my wife filled out the Mazda sponsor...

Re: Who will win?

I would agree with John on the fact that being picked to win makes all the pressure on you to win. I was lucky enough to have won 2 National Championships as well as 4 or 5 Pro-solo Championships. I was picked to win both times and got luck twice, but to see other people grow as drivers is great too...

FS: 2004 Astro Van

I have a Asto van that I need to get rid of. This is a work van but does have windows. I am looking to try to help someone out with this van. Its good but not great. It would run for several years if someone took care of it. Its cheap at $2,500 so please let me know if you want me to send you pics a...

Re: Auto Auction Today

16 pace is foot to the floor in JY's car. :lol: The times they are a changing and cars are a lot faster than they used to be and that's why we are seeing courses faster than they used to be too!

Re: Auto Auction Today

I think the temp of the tires would have a lot to do with the margin of victory here. The Toyo's love the cold but those big ole Hoosiers hate the cold temps! John I am guessing we aren't going to see the little 15 pace slaloms we have seen in the past? Its funny when guys build courses that they bu...

We just got word that Sara isn't going to have to have surgery! That is better news than even winning nationals. Now she is going to have to have a cast on for the next 8 weeks so she is going to be peg leg... :)

No problem Mark! Like I said this put you in a bad place to have to even be the one to tell me and I am sorry that came down to that. I would have hated to be the one to tell you the same news or even put up to this! Sara is young and this is her second issue with this leg so Kellye and I have our f...

Re: Nationals 2014 - Follow along!

My trip to Nationals was good and bad all in the same day: I want to thank JY for the eats. I am sorry we didn't hang out as much as we normaly would have but Kellye's back was killing her after the ride out and sitting in the folding chairs hurt it even more. Day 1: I didn't drive that well that da...
