Ouch...is this PCA? I recall Doug mentioning that it might be in one of his e-mails. I'll shoot him a note to confirm.

I actually just sent him a note asking him if we (took the liberty asking for you), however he responded that he can not let us run...it is not up to him

November 7th is however still open...guess we could do that, even though it is just after the BMWCCA event...

Almost thinking TMR now over BMW CCA for the last event of the year at Infineion....I believe you know why I say this?

Last TMR event we went to at Infineon, was probably the most fun I've had at that track.

My favorite track too, by far.

However, I am still trying to get my "issues" with the car sorted before I track it....hopefully I will be able to track it this year!! Time will tell.

Have fun fellas!

I know exactly why you say this Are you thinking about canceling the BMWCCA event and going to the TMR one instead?

Bummer the BMWCCA event is SOLD OUT.....

Hmm I'm a PCA member and own a P-car....does that mean I can sign up? Then just show up with the M3 since the 928 is having issues right now?

Ya, we all have already signed up for BMWCCA....trying to figure out if we should also do TMR the following week...or maybe even just TMR.

The overall experience and level of liberation is completely different from BMW CCA GG Chapter event vs. a TMR event. Both are equally good to attend, however one is more educational based, regardless of run group; where the other assumes you know what you are doing and are there to let loose(if you are in certain run groups).
