Team WTF?! is a loose association of a handful of Washington, D.C. area autocrossers.  The name was hatched when two of the founding members were doing a course walk in the rain at the DC ProSolo in June 2004.

The Answer is the question.

After a weather forecast that would have led one to believe that a repeat of the practice event or WDCR #1 was going to play out, it was a pleasant surprise (not something that we're too familiar with in Team WTF?! land) to find such nice weather all day.  Sunny, warm, breezy.  Wow.  So, of coruse, not everyone from Team WTF?! got to drive.

A Team WTF?! effort was made to replace the clutch in Bren's A Stock 1989 Corvette the day before the event.  Unfortunately, there was no plan to replace the cluth slave at the same time.  So, the car spent the event day being pushed around on a hill, off a trailer, and put up on jackstands.  Alex showed up Sunday to take photos (see 1,153 photos from the morning session) of the morning session and then headed on out.  Bren stayed home growing his mullet.

The Corvette issues left a void in A Stock that John V quickly filled on his first run of the day.  After first runs, John V held a two second lead over the rest of the class...including his cone.  When it was all said and done in A Stock, John V won A Stock (10th PAX overall of 222) with a 1.4 second lead over Ken in second place (24th PAX).  Clyde took a rather disappointing 5th of 17 (56th PAX) in A Stock due to a continued cone plauge straight out of the Team WTF?! Bible. (Read more about Clyde's issues.)

Our favorite Team WTF?! carwhore/mascot/superhero, Guido, couldn't find an A Stock ride, so he went the other way... E Stock and did well, finishing first of 9 drivers in class (22nd PAX).

Nick made a return to A Street Prepared in real Team WTF?! style in a 2002 BMW M3 (no SMG II this time, thank you very much) shod with ST* class tires and, um, anything?  Bueller?  Anyone?  You could say that he took second place in class.  Or, you could say that he took second.  Or, you just might say 160th PAX.  The choice is yours.

In Ladies Class, Mrs. Ken took the win in the Team WTF?! Boxster S.  Her indexed class leading run would have been good for 5th place (and just a whisker out of 4th) in the open A Stock class.  Proving her Team WTF?! credentials, Mrs. Ken forgot to turn on the camera for that winning run, but did manage to capture her celebratory drifting exhibition on her fourth run.  Welcome to the team, Mrs. Ken!
