Default Jeremy's $10 Challenge.

Once again, I will be putting down $10 for anyone that can beat my time in Autocross.

This goes for the rest of the year. The next event will be hosted by www.autocross.com/er/ this Sunday the 10th. You can check their website for details. All times will be judged on the PAX index, so as to even the playing field as much as possible.

I must also accept the challenge, as will you. None of this crap, coming up at the last minute asking for $10. You can either reply here. Or come see me at the event in the morning.

Jeremy "probably gonna lose some money" Foley

EDIT: If the mods could make this a sticky, that would be great.

EDIT EDIT: This is more geared toward suby owners. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to tell you that a well sorted BMW even with a mediocre is going to stomp on a bone stock RS, even a fully prepped RS would be no contest. Like I said, I will review all challengers. And most will be accepted.

So, this is a blanket $10 payment if the PAX'd time is better than yours or is it a bet, where the faster PAX receives the $10 from the slower?

Not that it matters to me, just curious.

I'm not quite sure on the question.

What I'm proposing is, if your pax time is better than mine. You get $10 from me. However, if it not. Then I get $10 from you.


Kevin, you are right. There are certain people I will not accept the challenge from, just because I know it will be next to impossible for me to beat them. Such as most of the STi guys. Like I said, both parties, including myself have to agree.

I'll put up ten bucks for Todd Milstead, who is up there and beats the snot of the ratt_finkel in PAX regularly (looking at the results). Although I could show and co-drive with you Jeremy and beat the snot out of you in raw time in your own car.

well id be happy to come give it a try, and I imagine I could take your money. But $10 doesn't even begin to pay the expense of getting there.

If I didn't have a number of plans already this weekend including a wedding, Id go for it though =)

Right, his car is representative of what all you other drivers should be doing.

And you're more than welcome to come up and out drive me in my own car. That would count as well.

Oh, and I have pax'd higher than Todd before.

Yes it does. There has yet to be one I've seen out there post a better time.

jmott, if you PAX in the top 10 eith ER, you get money. If you place first. It would be more than enough to cover your trip.
