2 months out - Who is coming? Who is ready? Who hasn't even started their build yet? Who will get kicked out of the hot tub at 2am by the hotel staff? Who will lose to a friggin Camry?

I have been schemeing all of febuary, as my procrasination fades. My car is no longer puking oil, so I do have that going for me. Getting all the little things I missed when I hastily got it running in a weekend and starting to wheel and deal with my parts stash that came with it.

Hey my challenge car runs!!   

But..  Like that's literally maybe 1/4 the battle.    I need to get welding.  I have a miata skateboard that runs and theoretically drives but a challenge car it is not yet..

I'm not bringing a car this year, so I shall remain relatively quiet.

I just cant wait to beat half the field on my first Challenge just cause my car is so reliable I'll get a score in all events.

Won't be a good score, but itll be better than all ya'll rod knockin, axle snappin, bearing losing suckers will get.

Well most of the decent E36 M3 talking around here is AC and I.  Since neither of us are entering cars good luck to the rest of y'all.

I plan to podium in the RX3.9 again this year. (GTN$).

Top 10 overall would make me happy if I can repeat that feat.

Car is better (more comfortable) this year than last, but no real performance improvements have been done - except a slightly bigger clutch).

I feel I should address this...

My self, Angry, and Mofo will probably get kicked out of the hot tub at about 1030.  I'll let yall decide on AM or PM.

I will probably lose to a Camry.

My car is still being sorted, but it could compete in its current state.
