Hey Norm, that's right this is Stephen. Not every day I see another clean red FD (in fact I just commented this morning that it has probably happened six times in my life)! For the record I saw your car just outside your apartment complex, didn't follow you for 90 miles or anything, haha 
Let me know if you sign up! Even with that run of the mill LS2 it would be awesome running around with another super clean VR FD!

Just signed up this morning. I've done a few LeMons events but have never had any sort of on track instruction. This event should be helpful and fun. See you guys there!

Awwhhh, they put me on standby. There are still openings for the Green and Red groups but I guess I "qualify" for the Blue or Yellow group. I assumed since I had never run with them before then they would put me in the Green group. Oh well, I'll go to the event regardless and just hang out if I don't get to run.
Should I put painter's tape all over my front bumper to run this track? Just add 10x layers of wax beforehand? If you recall I'm the guy with the brand new red paintjob.

You could throw some extra wax and tape on the car but the risk is always there when you're racing. It'd be real hard for you to go uncontrollably off-track at MSR but accidents happen.

6.3: Why Am I Upside-Down? Rule: You're upside-down because you have no business being out on a racetrack. Any driver who puts a car on its roof is out for the rest of the season, beginning immediately. Any car that rolls during a race will be removed from the race.
I'm out until January 1 next year.
LeMons HQ went one step beyond and disqualified the RX2 from any future LeMons competition.
