Looks like you're running in the morning on Sunday. If I can make it, maybe I should run in DSP so I can work the course and pick up your cones.

Just kidding. I'll definitely try to make it though.
[edit] I know I would be totally and utterly whooped in DSP.h:

Yeah stoptech is one but also from other seasoned track vets.
the pics on that site proved to me that I had pad transfer issues not warpped rotors. All I know is EBC will never get my money again.
Haahahahaa don't be too surprised to see in come in last in B stock and not hit any cones
I'm not that aggressive on the course.

I lifted my wheels off the ground and checked for excessive play and I think my bearings are totally fine.
Yeah, I'm thinking that I've got the same problem. I've been planning on getting new rotors but I'm going to see if I can have a friend of mine turn my rotors (if they're still serviceable) just to make things better in the meantime. Thanks for the tips though, I'll probably get down and dirty and do all the manual labor involved when the time comes.
Uh huh.... That's what they all say. 
Good luck this weekend.

Darn, I actually won't be able to make it this weekend at all. 
Maybe another time I suppose... But everyone who's going, I hope you all have a blast and I'll probably see you at the meet!

Man, the autox was pretty good this time. I got there around 1:30-2pm, right when the civic's, MP3's, Integras, Sentras, Corolla's and other cars like that were about to run. There was two 4th gen hatches, a 5th gen Accord coupe, a 5th gen hatch, a black ITR, a Sentra SE-R, a few old school rwd corolla's, a tight 5th gen Civic coupe w/B18 swap, and a few others. Alot of cars ran in this class, I was suprised, I'd say at least 20 cars. I seen Rick's beemer out there parked, never seem him though, I was thinking about going over to his car and sitting on the hood until he came over to kick my assh: I prolly won't go out tomorrow, it's easter sunday plus the weather isn't supposed to be as nice. Oh well, next weekend is the meet so it's all good.
