Saturday meet

You guys could come to the AutoX/Solo II race at FedEx Field just outside the D.C. beltway its free to spectate. Better yet if you join SCCA, which you can do at the race, you can take your car and rip around the course four times. Its an opportunity to drive your car like you've never driven it before, you can even take a ride along with your buddies for more fun. Guaranteed better than any ride at Bush Gardens and a cheaper. Check out here: http://solo.wdcr-scca.org/novice.htm I’ll be running in the afternoon heat but will probably show up for the morning heat to get a extra chance to walk the course which you can do to even if your just spectating. Then hang out for a while and watch some of runs of the coarse then go get some brunch.
Hope to see ya there.

When were you trying to go other than this weekend Dave? I'm in and so is Chris (99proES), think. I am going to get a seasons pass i'm sure as I go there all the time. Its a great park. One thing I like the most is the fact thats its incredibly clean. C'mon people....lets go ride some roller coasters....

Well I got the Silver Passport for 68 bucks v/s the 99 they go for. Air Force discount! Well I was there on Saturday. Rode the Alpinegeist a couple times. Small lines. But the second time we had to wait a while because the had to clean up a mess on the track. And after that second trip (we were at the very front on that one!!!) I was almost at the same point. Well I also rode the Loch Ness. I thought it was ok. Nice point in ride where it went all dark. Then I rode the Escape from Pompei like 4 times and got soaked. Went to a bar in Ireland and got some free beer, only after I had already bought one. Damn chick carded me after I had already been carded. There was lots of teenage chicks. If only I was a few years younger. My buddys all were like if the field is bare flip it over and play in the mud.

Hey guys, I have a season pass and go all the time, so if anyone wants to go or meet up there or something let me know or we can set up a meet and just chill. I'm gonna get hard into the scene this year. Let me know.
