[Crazy Canuck]

I don't know if it's the right section,
but I thought I would share how I'm feeling.

Basically, I love AutoX and I find it a great way to enjoy the car, and so forth.
I'm also OK at it and kick ass on some fast cars in my category as well.

There are a few things that makes me not enjoy it as much.
1. it's very political... full of BS
2. seat time is very minimal
3. can't be much more competitive unless I trailor another set of wheels w/ Hoosier dady.
4. I'd like to use more than just 1-2 gear.

I'm just thinking on focusing more on driving and seat time.
Am I the only one that thinks this or going through this kind of feelings ?

I hear ... fear ... you Pat.

The damage factor had (has) me very worried.

But it's also the reason I chose CMC over SCCA or COMA ...

I saw first hand how those boys don't cotton to rubbin' ... it was ugly ...

I guess if you have a group that really, um, enforces "no rubbin'" then it's a whole lot better. In my incident, I spun (my bad) in a qualifying session without a car around me and the car died. I couldn't get it to re-start, couldn't get it to re-start. At this point, every body panel was still straight. Then some guy in a BMW -- despite a waving yellow flag -- got squirrely and thumped my rear quarter panel. I always figured any rubbin' would be during a race with cars fighting for position not as I sat dead in the water during qualifying.

The best thing was the chief steward felt no need to talk to the driver who hit me. Waving yellow flag = drive at 10/10ths????

No I'm not bitter.
