Bay area Autox oct 9th

[LARRY SHARP]

Ok I am not doing the course design on oct 9th . Bill Daly is ,, but everyone should still attend its a great site

[jrdavid68]

And the site Larry is referring to is Alameda Point..........

[88'3xBlk911Cab]

Larry, is there a strict noise limit at Alameda? I have heard rumors that there is and wanted to confirm as our autox car is a bit on the loud side.

Thanks,
Mary

[LARRY SHARP]

yes there is a sound limit and so far we have all been good neighbors they seem. but if your car isnt too loud like open exhaust .. it should be ok.... It all depends how much you have modified your muffler

[88'3xBlk911Cab]

We don't autox our 911. Our autox car is a fully prepared AP Cobra replica.......no open exhaust but healthy sounding side pipes. Hubby thinks the db's are low to mid 90's. Here is what it sounds like from an in car camera http://www.norcal-cobras.com/videos/mary_9-20-03_ax.wmv

Our good friends Susan and EJ Fontaine run a AP 914-6 and would love us to bring the Cobra but it is a couple hour trip to haul the car to Alameda so we don't want to come if we are just going to be shown the exit Do you think it is too loud?

TIA

in Golden gates newletter Bill Benz made a comment about back when Curtis Robertson and I were having good times with our cars those were some strong battles

[LARRY SHARP]

I just downloaded the video of the cobra that is awesome how anyone could complain about that sound ill never know Please Please contact Doug Ambrisko to ask him I would love to see you run .. I last drove a 427 Cobra in 1988 they are great but a handfull at a autocross

Thanks Larry! I just emailed Doug. We would love to come down and run as the Fontaine's rave about PCA and Alameda. Thanks again

larry, said hello to you last weekend at the smart racing open house, dont think you recognized me. you looked very puzzled with my face.

[LARRY SHARP]

I talked to soo many people that day I apologize for looking confused. It was Great seeeing so many people from the porsche community

[autoxracer31]

Hey, if any of you guys see Mr. daly tell his daughter (if shes with him) Derek Jones says hey and that she shouldnt crash any more ford explorers. (we went to church together before I moved to Fresno)

[juanbenae]

does this mr daly have a purple/blue 993?

[LARRY SHARP]

Bill has boxster s red one

I've gotten a preview of the course design and it looks great! Very fast with two long slaloms, a devilish closing-radius sweeper at the far end and some fast switch backs. Don't worry - I'm not getting an unfair advantage by seeing the course - I won't be there this weekend

Have fun, everyone!
