Is there a way to remove yourself from registration on msreg? Unfortunately it hit the fan at work on Friday and I'll be tied up fixing things on Sunday. :(

Log in and go to the event dashboard.  There should be a "Cancel registration" link on that page.

He's cancelled and future credit issued.

By the way, here's a map for tomorrow just in case you might be interested.  :)

well, so much for a dry event http://weather.gc.ca/warnings/report_e.html?ab1

Yeah, now I don't know whether to bring the Miata on summer tires and take a chance on getting back home or bring our wagon out to hoon around on its all seasons.

The Miata will certainly be more fun, and I don't expect the roads to anything other than wet when we finish.  Any snow/ice that sticks wouldn't happen until later in the evening.

Latest report is partially sunny/cloudy but turning worse in the late afternoon and overnight on Sunday-Monday.  So, I think we are good.

Bring the Miata!   :)

Thats a very different forecast than what is on Environment Canada's site (20-50 mm, mixed rain and snow in the afternoon).  I guess I'll decide in the morning.  John

They had this forecast yesterday but then changed it ... and now they have changed back.  I have found these guys seem to be slightly more accurate (as far as I can tell).

Sometimes I think the Environment Canada guys are doing the forecasts from Ontario and that they really do not realize the instability caused by the proximity of the mountains ...

And that was totally worth the effort - cold and windy, but turned into a nice fall day at the end, now my summer tires are parked back into the garage for tonight's storm.  Great course, I enjoyed it a lot after my daughter helped me figure out the cone I kept missing (and nope, not the one at work station #6, I watched too many cars DNF there this morning to mess that one up).

Had a great time today, Reijo that was an awesome course, thank you for that.  Im finally beginning to unlock the potential of my Mazda 3, the upgraded rear swaybar made a significant difference in how the car felt and how it handled the tight stuff.  Thanks again to Shane for helping me out with the installation of said rear swaybar.  Congrats to Rob/Greg for completely wrecking any times I put down lol, I tried, but I could not catch you two 8) nice driving today.  The handling on my Mazda changed so drastically that it really threw me off and I kept over/under driving everywhere haha it was awesome :) I really enjoyed it.  I can't wait to take the autocross school next season to have instructors available to help me smooth out my lines and my critical thinking on the course.  I have lots of work to do with that loose nut behind the wheel and am super excited to dive into next season with proper tires.   Hope to see some of you on Ghost Lake this winter and am looking forward to both ice racing and the SASC Ice Driving School, cant wait 8)
