Guest Blogger To Cover TX SCCA National Tour

This coming weekend a SCCA Solo National Tour event will take place in Mineral Wells, Texas.  It is this coming March 27-28, 2010.  Specific detailed schedule is here.

Fellow SASCA club member and participant, Eric, has generously offered to be a hands on guest blogger at the scene!  He’s an enthusiastic driver of a 2001 Corvette Z06 called Sunshine (yellow).  He will be co-driving in Jay’s car (the black one below)…

Here’s the setup discussion that has transpired, so far…

Hey Dan, how are you?  Want a guest blogger for the national tour since you said you weren’t going?  My last few fiction pieces got rejected so maybe I can do better with non-fiction.  LOL

That would be great – I’d be honored to get some quality content, straight from the scene!  Let me know what details we’ll need to coordinate.

Do you want me to do a day by day update?  I could just e-mail you some pics and blog each night after the competition is over.  Of course, now that I’m doing this I’ll probably end up finishing in last place 

Oh well, I’m going regardless

Day by day would be best if you can, thanks!  I’m sure you’ll do fine – I look forward to your editorial contribution!  Thank you

BTW, I just announced you’re being next weekend’s Racing Ready guest blogger at the SASCA FB page – your secret’s out!

LOL.  I guess everyone would’ve found out sooner or later!  I’ll have to warn Jay that I’m gonna be taking more pics than normal…

Well, besides the SASCA page on FB, I also already put it out on the Spokes FB page.  I think tomorrow I’ll dust off my forum list & advance post it out to some others out there as well. Hmmm, sounds like a new blog post to start in advance, as well.

What would you like for me to post out there about you, your Corvette, your autocross & writing experience, if any?  In other words, I think it would be good for you to write your own “pre-quel”, a moderate paragraph, if you will.  Should be the beginning to a fun series of entries…

You WILL be well publicized – no pressure!

That’s great and I’ll give him some help, as well.

Hehehe, don’t worry, if pressure really bothered me I wouldn’t be running an SCCA National Event.    I bowl for money too, and often times it comes down to the last shot.    And I think I can manage to bang a paragraph out about myself, I’ll email it to you when I’m done.  Heck, I might even do it tonight!

(Responding to Jay) I’m counting on it!

Hey Eric,  Are both you & Jay sharing a Corvette together, or are you both going up in your respective rides?  If sharing, will it be Jay’s black one or your yellow one.  I’d like to know so I can post an introductory teaser about your guest blogging on Racing Ready today!  Thanks!

Hey Dan,  Yes, we are going to be sharing Jay’s black Z06, but to be fair we’re gonna be running my wheels and tires.  I bet his black car will look badass with my black CCWs. 

It should be good to get an active autocross participants point of view, here. Racing Ready is looking forward to real, on-the-scene coverage & interesting pix.

Thanks, in advance, Eric!

Dan
