really! I would never have thought that.

Actually, I know some Porch owner/drivers who are pretty decent folks. On
the other hand, I've met some Duesies!

Example - a PCA event at the local airfield where we autocross. A number
of years ago, a porsche guy lost an oil line entering a sweeper turn. He
proceeded to leave the entire contents of the sump on the track. We had an
event the next week - the other club hadn't even bothered to clean it up!

Our follow-on event was an SCCA Solo 2 National Tour. We had to redesign
the course to accomodate the oil spill. Sheesh. I think we used 300 pounds
of speedi-dri.

Speaking of speedi-dri - when we were doing the cleanup, it was easy to
spot the british car guys... they had a definite technique to spreading
and scuffing in the speedi-dri. Sort of like they'd actually engaged in
the activity before.
