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 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).
The 3X autocross champ Spyder cart is now retired, so the autocross crown is up for grabs this year.
We got out "Miata in Disguise" engine started, so watch out all. We may even have our first drive before we show up in Gainesville

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.
You know, I talk E36 M3 saying that y'all suck at talking E36 M3 and y'all still suck at talking E36 M3.
Been a while since posting in here. Bringing 2 cars. Would like to return home with one. Both challengers. Splitfire is up for grabs after the event. Had andy not won last year, we would of taken the autox crown. Looking to repeat that this year and have a good showing on the drags with actual slicks.
Second car is a bit of a sleeper. Prior champ car. Fwd. 6 speed manual. May or may not be vq powered.
In reply to surfshibby07 :
Sleeper = caged Champcar apparently LOL
Meanwhile I'm roadtripping down in my actual sleeper FWD manual 2GR (that's like a VQ with power), that I built not bought, and driving back home with a trunk full of trophies

You got one of the altimas? Was it pauls originally?
Those altimas were trading hands at about 12k or so a few years ago.
If you got the maxima from up north, that thing has a killer (cheater) stroker engine in it.
I can say that my challenge car drove to and from the FIRM (from near Charleston, SC) over this last weekend. It even laid down some laps!
Any of your challenge cars competing in motorsports already?
Any of your challenge cars laying down the 3rd fastest time (in class) at a TT?
No?
Just me and my RX8?
Losers.
In reply to wvumtnbkr :
I dont know if a guy named paul owned this. This is from a team who got it from someone but idk who. They have had it for about 4 years i believe in which they never raced it. They tore it down to make it their own and it stayed in that state. I essentially made their problem mine.
And this is bought and built. I have to put it all back together and hope it works lol. I doubt it has a stroker motor. I was made well aware its stock motor/trans. But it is gutted to the bones with a cage.
In reply to surfshibby07 :
It's gotta survive a bunch of laps on a 3/8 mile oval with like 80 other Altimas first! 🤞
good luck!
In reply to Lof8 - Andy :
We arent going to make it. There were too many little parts we needed to put back to stock that i couldnt get in time.
I can pretty confidently say we won't kick ass in the drags this year, but yall better watch out in the concourse. The tank will be lobbing shells at the competition
In reply to surfshibby07 :
I got my big trophy already, ironically with a VQ35! Been there, done that
