First time competitor

Subject: First time competitor Wed Jul 18, 2007 1:47 pm

Hey all. Just thought I would pop in and introduce myself. I will be running through for the first time at Heatwave in Intro SQ. Been around watching for many years, so I finally decided to jump in and compete. Hope to go in a higher class next year, but at this time my system just isn't up to snuff for anything but the basic scoring.

Hope to see you all there.
Any tips for a first timer?

Could not run, due to my head unit being stolen at the hotel. Will never stay anywhere near the 290/35 area. All of thoe hotels are targeted now. 5 cars at our hotel got hit.

Well, a 1600 dollar check from insurance should make things whole again. I hope to get back on the horse and show again, but not sure when the next show is that is close and will have SQ.

All they told me was ......... Thank you for staying with us have a nice day................ And something about we should have seen the NO SECURITY signs... Remember when i said well f u c k that is why i paid over 100 dollars a night on a room and the bastard manager said Crime doesn't have a zipcode. So i then said your an idiot and shut the hell up cause i can already see im gonna knock your Gluteus Maximus out... Then the cop stepped in........... So to answer your question .......................

F U C K NO

Other than that hope youve been doing well and can make it too one of our shows in the next month..... Later bro..
