Re: New England NCRS judging meet..
Got an email 2 weeks ago verifying my registration for the New England Top Flight event...everything seemed all set......today I got a call from NCRS headquarters......now they tell me the TF class is limited to 10 cars and my reg. was #11 to be recieved......so long story short, I'm "in" if someone cancels or is a no show......may not even be notified until the morning of the show........
As I explained to the gentleman on the phone, its a good thing I only live 10 minutes from the event site and not up in Maine somewhere!!........Kevin

Re: New England NCRS judging meet..
Kevin,
What's the latest? You in or out? Doug OBTW Squirt a little WD-40 on the latches of the cubby holes behind the seats, "they" like to see them latch when "dropped" from about 6" or so. They also get a little "giddy" over the spare tire and jack bag contents & condition. Read over your owner's manual on how to operate eveything, stereo, AC/heater etc so you'll be familiar when it's checked. Good luck with your rear hatch going all the way up when you "pop" it... I've had 3 C4s, 2 from new and none of them ever went all the up! A little WD40 wiped on the piston shafts helps a little. Also know where the manual release for the rear hatch is (stuffed up under the surround) and that it works. |

Doug,
Still in "limbo"....first in line if one of the 10 Top Flight entrants cancels or is a "no show" Dropped the spare, good thing as it was flat...filled and cleaned......cleaned up the tire bag and tire surround too, lots of Texas dust in there. Thanks for the wd40 tips.....I need to look for the emergency hatch release again....couldn't find it when I originally got the car, but didn't look to hard then....Kevin

Re: New England NCRS judging meet..
Kevin,
If New England doesn't work out I know the Western NY Chapter has a meet the weekend of June 1st. I understand they already have a C-4 class, so maybe????? Visit their website and/or drop them a line. Wish I could help you but our meet is full and we only have C-1, C-2 and C-3 classes. Good luck, John

Whoops... Looks like I'm a week early! That's what happens when you're retired and the hi-lite of the day is "cocktail hour"...
