And like you need all that power.

I already renewed all my license stuff. Why do I need to contact Michael?
Marshall - Aaron already races with NASA TX.
Aaron - I think Marshall is referring to unique race format stuff (and/or I think he assumed you were new to racing). He could be referring to standing starts for Races 1 and 3 (except TWS), and inverted rolling starts for Races 2 and 4. There's usually a meeting each day.
Edit: initial reply had more, saw a typo I was trying to edit via my phone and add something about TWS, and ...errrrr Anyway..Quote:

TWS looks fun from in car video I've seen. Other than a better chance of good weather than up here in April, is it worth the trip?
Thanks

TWS is always worth the trip. One of my favorite tracks at 2.9mi.
TWS is my favorite track of any that we run in Texas. TWS running clockwise is my second favorite track. Definintely worth the trip.
After hearing that from you two, and it sounding even more enticing, I just checked the map and learned it's much further than I'd thought. No clue what I was looking at before, but for some reason thought it was in Forth Worth. Just confirmed I'm way off and that it's 920 miles from my house and probably a 14 hour trip. Bummer. Will do better research next time before barking up the wrong tree. My bad.
Guess I'll just have to settle for racing with all of you at Hallett.
Hope everyone has good Christmas & New Years and a fun start to the 2013 season. Will see ya next June.
Thanks

Eagle's Canyon & Motorsports Ranch Cresson are the two Ft-Worth area tracks and still worth considering
All of you Aggies love TWS. You all are good on TWS, and tough to stay up with. Besides you get to sleep in your own bed. TWS is an excellent track, except in August.Quote:

btw: Heads up. The TWS home page is handing out viruses. When I clicked the link, my anti virus kicked in and gave me a long list. Then my IT department called right after and let me know. Fortunately my anti virus did it's job but the files were still in my internet temp folders and had to clear them. So, in addition to the heads up, also figured some of you might have some contacts there and may want to do em a favor and let them know.

You can come to MSRC (Ft. Worth) in March, then leave you car at my shop, and come down in April for TWS. Not sure if it's an option to leave your rig and fly, but the offer is there.Quote:

Dang! Not even an honorable mention to those that were the first ones to ever run CMC in Texas back in '03. I have an S197 that could possibly be considered (in the distant future) of sweeping the CMC championship and once again back to back. :) See you guys at MSR-H!
Crap, thats all we need...next Burch and Wirtz will follow just to even the score...Quote:

Looks like waiting to return in November 2013 was the smart thing to do.Quote:

You didn't hear? The rules won't be released until after the first event. Everyone that guessed correctly on the rules will get to keep their trophies. People who guessed incorrectly will be stripped of their trophies and points and will forever be labeled "cheaters"...Quote:

Rumor has it Todd is going to run his CMC1 spec convertible fox in AI, so you guys better not outrun him or you'll risk rules changes! lol
Todd's already told me he'd fly the AI banner on his CMC1 car and show everyone that you CAN make a FOX Mustang (even a vert) run with the FR Boss 302S cars. LOL! He just needs to ensure he's not passed by the flying pig. I'd hate to see what those Manties look like. :)Quote:
