Hey all,
I hate to even post this for fearing of jinxing myself again...but after many delays, set backs and general bad luck lol...I should be seeing you folks tomorrow in Windsor, Vermont for the Ascutney 2 climb.
The Lotus is done. Getting the needed extra safety stuff installed as we speak.
Just looking to take it slow, learn the car and have some fun this weekend. I heard Ascutney isn't the smoothest course. Not going to be breaking any records...or hopefully any parts!
If you see a green 7, come say hi to me, my wife and my dog!

Ryan.
Hope to see you there. I won't be driving (grumble-grumble-grumble) but will take pictures. No video... takes too long to put that together. I'll be with the drunk people (keg?).

No driving? Hope all is ok Well, glad we'll be able to chill regardless. Me and the wife will be camping at the park each night so we are looking forward to a fun time.

I've had the car driveable for the last 2 weeks...there was a big big big rush to get it ready for my wedding. The last week we've just been making it trackable. Put 11 of the most exciting miles of my life on the 7 so far. I think Ascutney will be a good first time to take the car out and learn the ins and outs of it.
Again, just looking to have fun, learn the car and drive her back down the hill my last run
Come up one day this weekend! Hang out!

I am new to this racing thing and will be hillclimbing next season. I was wondering if i could maybe get a fam run on Sat from some one. What time do the fam runs start?

Re: Ascutney 2 - 9/17-19
Riding on a fam run is at the chair persons discretion. Usually they'll allow a worker to go on one provided their is enough worker coverage. Best to talk to the chair at the event. Workers meeting is usually at 7am. You must have the safety equipment appropriate for the car you are riding in. SA2000 helmet or better. if caged, you'd need a driving suit and gloves. SCCNH is the club organizing this event, so they may have other requirements. I believe Dave and Diane Burden are chairing the event? You may be able to get their contact info on the entry form on hillclimb.org.

Failtastic.
I think next time there is a potential track day for me, I'm just gonna keep my mouth shut and just show up. Jinxed myself. Never got up to the climb.
Had an issue with the car when I picked it up Friday morning and never got her on the trailer. Car is ok. Just was a discouraging situation and I needed a break from the car for a weekend. Bleh.
