We were sitting around yesterday and talking about not having a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif) for quite some time. I had not noticed anyone from out of state buying a car here or any other reason to party. In the past we have done 10 to 12 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif) a year.
This reminded me of something Howard said in response to a thread that asked, What does NARP mean? Howard's response was "No Actual Reason Party". God bless and rest his sole. So I started looking for a date that we could gather. What I found was that the soonest we could gather was about the second weekend of August. So I did a search (yes I try to use that button too) and what I found is that time happens to coincide with the third anniversary Howard's premature departure from our realm. How apropo. So.... Come one come all, lets have a ball. At Team NARP Headquarters. August the 7Th at 11:00 am. I have suggested a ride in the morning and Thomas said Ortega as we did for the Toys for Tots run. The details should be worked out here later in this thread. I'll need to know how many people can make it, so if you can come please post here. |

Love to but WITW is NARP HQ? Unless that is Slits shop I haven't the foggiest.
EDIT - And yes, let's do an early run. Some of us did Ortega in May and it's great but you need to be off it by 9am or expect traffic. |

Joe,
It looks like the next PCA event is at El Toro the next day. What were your times yesterday? I noticed a few things that may help to point out... |

I've spoken with my manager, agent and travel stecretary and all have agreed to keep that weekend open for me. So barring any unforseen problems I will be there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Team NARP Headquaters is my home. PM me for the address.
Arron: We are doing this on Saturday because of the A/X. My times got down to a 62.9 and a 63.0. The first thing I need to do is learn to read the cones as with the laps I did yesterday bring my total to about 30. |

That's a pretty good time! TTOD was in the high 58's from Steve Abbot with the Corvette. I got down in to the high 64's before my carb ejected it's idle mixture screw. I found the screw and held it in with some racers tape, but then had a bad case of "falling off #4 spark plug wire". I managed to damage the end while diving in to the engine compartment during the heat of battle.
Hope I get to come the BBQ. PM is on it's way. -Aaron |

Joe, don't bother lighting the BBQ ... just throw the stuff on the asphalt/concrete ... it's hot enough to cook it there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
