I'm 50/50 about coming out Sunday. Not because of the cold either (I play pond hockey, w00t!)

Haven't had time to get the tune done since work is kicking me around. I have a couple of leaks in the exhaust to track down and oil to change - and no nice garage to do any of this! WOOHOO!!!

Maybe I'll just bring it as-is, pound on it for one more day then throw it in the garage for the winter :(

What's the coldest temperature you guys have ran in?

I think you should just come out Ian! :D You'll probably regret it, if you don't. Last event of the year! Your stock tune should still be fine running with the exhaust mods you've done recently.

Last year we had at least one event that had to been in the 50's or 40's. One of which was very windy which didn't help things either.

Forecast is 38 for a high w/ 20% chance of snow. What is the likelihood of the event being cancelled/postponed? I'm fine with the weather (I'll just pretend I'm Finnish, then it will be warm), but I'm driving from Omaha and would hate to show up to an empty parking lot.

Thanks to everyone for another awesome event. Course design was a nice combination of challenging and fun. Special thanks to Quincy for letting me have a go in the M3. What an amazing car.

See everyone next year!
