RTR does not have a DE event in October so I am thinking about going to the Northern Ohio Region event at Mid Ohio on October 21 & 22 2006. I think if we apply early (application is available on their web site) we stand a pretty good chance of getting accepted for the event.  Any interested in making the trip to Mid Ohio?

Brian,

I'd really like to try out Mid-Ohio.  I heard it's a great track and it was just re-paved before this season.  I only have one minor detail that I need to work out (my job situation - I need a new gig).  Let's touch base at the tech this weekend.  I'll be dropping by in the morning.

My bad...  I just remembered that my oldest son has a HS football game on Friday night at 7pm.  I wouldn't be able to get on the road until about 10pm.  So, I don't think I'll be able to make it after all.

I will indeed have a great time at Mid Ohio.  However first its a trip back to Dougherty's tomorrow. Discovered when teching the car this weekend that the front anti roll bar had come apart and this is why I had the handling issues at Pocono. Once I softened the rear it got better but still not to its old self.  I was blaming the new tires but now we know better.  Had no front antisway bar at all so the stiff back end made the car kick out (over steer)  just past the apex of a turn with next to no additional throttle.  Got to replace a bushing and a thrust washer that disapeared and reassemble the antiisway bar. This should get it back to proper handling. Even the best equipment (smart racing) is prone to failure.

how was Mid-Ohio?  It looked like the weather was a little cool.

Maybe next year we can organize a group to get there. Cool

Steve,

Brian was driving home today. I'm sure we'll get an update. It's a tough track.
