Hi, my name is Steve, and I'll officially be broke for the rest of my life now.

So, I finally got around to going to Brumos U and I think I'm in for a diet consisting solely of Ramen from now on. They do a slalom drill, and a throttle steer drill. 1 ride with the instructor driving, 1 ride w/ instructor while you drive, then 2-4 runs through solo. Then they put it all together on a short course where we got a couple runs then 2 timed runs stopping in a box of cones - time stops when front of car enters box, 5 sec penalty if you don't come to a stop w/in the box.

The dude that teaches it showed up in this thing. I can't quite remember what his name was, but they told us he knew what he was talking about.



Me with the "Tongue of Concentration":



Here's the field that showed up - notice a C4S, an '03 GT2, a bunch of Carerra 2's, and a bunch more Boxster(S)s:



Waiting to go out for my first timed run:



And the results:



Turned in the best time on the first run, then missed the stop box by 3 inches to give away 3rd overall on the second run. Anyway, as soon as I get up to DC, I will be anxiously awaiting spring so that I can start doing AX/DE as much as is humanly possible until I have to resort to selling plasma and sperm to afford it.
