Couple questions.

1. Helmet. Can I use an open face half helmet? Dont really want to drive with a full motorcycle helmet on. Just curious.

2. Helmet. What rating does it need to be? Is it DOT or SNELL 95? I know its only like 92 for now, but I heard 2004 will require 95 so why not get it now.

2.5. Helmet. Good place to buy one? I assume any motorcycle shop, but just curious if anyone knows a good place for affordable helmets.

3. Out at auto-x is there a place where spectators can hang out? Decent area? Curious because my wife is interested in seeing what its all about, but I want her to be able to kick back somewhere half-way comfortable. Of if I bring a chair and umbrella can I set it up somewhere?

4. When I make a fool outta myself on Sunday are you all gonna laugh?

Thanks!

hey dave. good to see you can make it to scca.

3. a good area to sit is at the time trailer as it usually covers just less than half the course and has some shade. (bring an umbrella anyways and definitely some comfy chairs.

Whatever you do, don't forget the sunscreen.

And a handfull of one dollar bills to support the SCCA by purchasing water and fun runs!

DaveWRX

funs runs are at the end of the day (if there is time), ... costs $1.00 to just run the course (hehe, ... the fun way ), and you can have a passenger too.



me like fun runs

DaveWRX

Ack you cant have a passenger for the timed runs? Thought you could, was sort of counting on being able to have someone ride along and help me with technique. Hmm. Guess Im on my own til the end and hopefully there is time then. Wife was sorta wanting to come to ride along, but might not be worth her coming then.

Let me know if you wife is actually coming. Maybe I can persuade my wife to come too and meet your wife. I would like my wife to see this action because she told me no racing at all...not even Auto X. Just want her to see what goes on. Thanx man.

DaveWRX

Will do. Shes not sure yet since we would have to pick up the nanny at about 7:30 or so to make it to the caravan out there. She might skip this session. Will let you know when I know. With women tho thats the last minute.
