I was quite serious, all these people doing the whole "baby the car for 1000+miles!" bullshit makes me so sad. Just wait for the car to warm up, and drive it :\

Not going to touch break in here - but there's plenty of time to hit 1000 miles before the 8th .

Sorry Feffman - I'd be game for the event if I didn't already register for this one.

Any idea on space remaining? I don't see anywhere on AMS's site to see currently registered attendees. I'm still on the fence for this, but if I need to sign up soon to get a spot I might as well just do it.

they have a thread on another board i'm in, sounds like there is ample space in all places now. softening economy probably doesn't help fill up these events. it does not seem like i'll have my car by this date, let alone anywhere past even a mild break-in point. if you go i'm tagging along though. and as i just discovered on my facebook page, joliet appears to have a rather nice tilted kilt...







YUH!

Well, to be honest the tires are just about bald on the speed 3 at this point, but if you got wheels it's all yours

I'm pretty much in at this point. Won't have a new helmet by then, but assuming I can get a spot (won't have the cash to sign up until the Friday before the event) I'll be in.

It's Snell 2000, but I figured AMS/Autobahn would require newer.

they don't. and by jump in your ride apparently i mean jump in your ride to get down there, as they don't allow passengers in novice anymore. which stinks. maybe i can hope into ubersoph's brz... ;D
