BRR-SCCA College Challenge Auto-X: Oct. 20th @ Verona

[Jake]

This club isn't dead I'm just confused about what is going on as well. People stop being so grumpy.

The alumni are grumpy because we don't live on/near campus (with the exception of Rex & Julie) so we don't get the chance to meet students unless they come to events. Namely, autocross, track weekends, and go-karting.

When I was a student, I went to some events and discovered how cool the alumni were. They wanted to share stories of hoonery, talk about shitty old cars we've all owned, "that one time Pete launched his F-150 over a snowbank to run from the 5-0", give rides in their cars, and buy me some drinks at the VIR Tavern. You have no idea how much us "new alumni" would like to do that. It's a pay-it-forward sort of thing. And if nobody shows up, we can't.

I bought a round of drinks at the tavern on Friday night for the MMers. It was $39, and that's because I bought Maeng and Cande shots as well.

Maybe this'll be some better insight as to why we want y'all out. We just want to see who's excited about cars, because most of the world isn't these days.

Dinner on Saturday at Quaker Steak, 6 PM. Be 'dere.
