weekend memberships

Hey Jonathan, I'm like Will Rogers, I only know what I read in the papers, in this case SportsCar. It sounds as if the weekend membership will be mandatory beginning in Jan. '08. Hopefully the paperwork will be kept simple. As soon as I have more info on any Solo Safety Steward training I will post ...

Solo II program

Hey Guys, Here is my two or three cents worth, having been an autocrosser in OMR for most of the time since 1984. That doesm't mean I know any more, or that my opinion is any "righter" than anyone else's opinion. Communication, communication, communication! It seems to me that things go screwy with ...

Eureka Springs Covette Auto-X, Mark R. gets FTD

A number of OMR Corvette autocrossers were in Eureka Springs yesterday, Oct. 4, running in the annual autocross, a part of the big weekend gathering for Corvette enthusiasts. There were probably 100 cars running in the event. Mark Rountree had FTD, besting the next closest driver by .8 sec. Greg McN...

Nationals

Congrats Mark and Opie,

When you run against the best in the nation you find out how good you really are.

Ed, I didn't know you were moonlighting as a NASCAR pit crew member!

Way to go!

Chris and Ed Kudos to you guys for going to nats and giving it your best. I'm proud to have you represent OMR. It is indeed a learning process....but all part of life. My first year at nats I was back in the pack too. (At nationals you are just about always in some pack.) And this was after having h...

PAX index for this year's events

Hey Gentlemen, I hate to bring this up this late in the season, but I just noticed that the PAX indexes being used on this year's results appear to be last year's numbers. I didn't check each results page, but the ones I looked at don't jive with the 2007 numbers. Oops! Did anyone else notice this? ...

Go-fast graphics

Hey Bobby,

Nice looks. I'd say the graphics and numbers are worth at least a half a second, either in autocrossing or on the drag strip. Come to think about it, I could use some of those. Can we expect to see some steamroller tires any time soon? Look out PAX!

Solo II manager

Hi Guys, This is my first post so be gentle. I echo what Jim said about a number of people, two at least, sharing duties of the Solo II manager. Jonathan has done a great job at a difficult and sometimes thankless task. There is a lot to take care of, and it's hard work, so you and the rest of us ca...
