The only thing we do right now is drag and drink... We want to start getting into Auto-X like you guys do.
As for cars: 2 Stangs, 2001 M3 SMG, CRX, Ghetto Sled, and my DSM. Too many more to list... What track do you guys usually run at? -Ian

The idea of a JMU vs VT vs UVA car club matchup at natural bridge has potential maybe. Could probably set up a seperated set of runs there if we get it arranged in time. Have to lay some ground rules of course like an actual member of the club and not a friend of a friend sorta thing or borrowing someone's car that isn't in the club. Also have to figure out would the fastest time of whatever club decides who wins or do a showdown of the top three, etc, etc. Such an event would probably actually gain a lot of exposure and interest for each car club and could be used as an opportunity to get alumni donations for each club. Come on we all know how some rich alumni will throw money to anything associated with their school. By the way, the car club of virginia tech is HIGHLY interested in such a "showdown" for this spring semester. Natural bridge might be the best bet since it is somewhat closer to JMU and UVA. Bristol would be nice but thats a pretty big trip for you UVA and JMU guys unless you didn't mind. The track and pit areas at Bristol are VERY nice compared to natural bridge but it would probably be easier to get a seperated set of runs for a club showdown at NB.

When I was president of the UVA car club (August 2000-May 2002), it was a little more organized and there were planned meetings almost every week. I am sure this semester will be more organized and maybe some more community service events will be held along with hands on/lecture sessions. We have held information sessions on everything from the basics of the engine, suspension systems, car stereo equipment, etc. There are plenty of knowlegable people in the UVA car club. In the past we have drag raced at MIR, the Richmond Dragway, and Sumerduck. We tried to meet up with MM (JMU) a couple times, but no luck in them showing up. The VT club should come down one of the Richmond Dragway events starting in March.
