LOL I could SO be an ass right now and put a screen shot of the "log out" button saying "USE IT", but I won't. I would also look schizophrenic in the process since this will probably automerge...

Fine, I will post again. 112 gas is FTW. Dan.spec loves it, so do the high comp pistons.

BTW I am leaving now, did an uber gut on the car so ima tad late. Give me 20 minutes or so.

Stupid boys. Stuck here late again. I see how it is.


Wow, it really does look like I'm arguing with myself, LOL

BTW if anyone hears blood curdling screams from Oakland, that means Wes gutted the ENTIRE car, passenger seat included. Maybe I should jack a milk-crate filing box just in case.... See whoever's going to be at PRP....at PRP.

no they were both from 30 but the first race was flat then a little slanted downhill and the second one was the same hill barely slanted up i guess we can pull on STI's on a slight hill thats sick

I had alot of fun with you guys tinight, and you are right, PRP is going to be addicting haha. I raced an STI on the say home, it had a tri pod A-[iller and exhaust, we went from a 50 roll and I didnt see that i was in third . oh well kept even with him after that, bout a half car back or something. I wish we could have gotten some better times at the track, I beat 3 v-8's though

Theres some pics of the night, not to many but its better than nothing. I did not get a pic of the GTO , I know John did though.

Also heres my one vid from the night http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x...t=100_0131.flv

Overall not to bad for the first time out I dont think. I had 2 14.1's and a 14.2' lets not mention my little mishaps from 1 to 2 lol. And also one of the 14.1's was with a 2.46 60 ft. My times werent to bad off from everyone elses times I didnt think, just a bad track day imo

I DID get into the 13s tonight haha. All those 14s were annoying me. Got a 2.2 60' by slipping the clutch. 13.8 @ 100. The mph isn't right...that's a RWD time. 2.4 Dan got a weird MPH reading in the same lane, too. My highest trap was 105, I think. Not a fast night. 7 runs though...pretty damn good.

Got tons of pics and video. Will post em up.

Oh yeah, at B-dubs in Monroeville, we discovered our waiter--guy we had last time--has a turbo'd SL2. We got to chatting and when we asked him what he had, he kinda looked away. "Oh, I turboed a Saturn." Kinda like...don't laugh at me haha.

At that point, Al got interested, and I told em there was a 13 second Saturn out in the lot. I think we sucked another into our group. He can do all sorts of fabrication for cars. I think he's stopping by here to post, too.

I am pretty confident that I would have gotten in to the 13's if I would have stayed, I had 2 14.1 runs at the end with a 2.4 60, so im pretty sure I would have made it, maybe next time though right?

Heat soak was bad... and "interior Soak" had a negative effect on Jays' 1st run too.....




Great time out last night w/ everyone. Sorry I didn't see everyone when I left. I DID get to see Jon's 13.8 run. I was parked down @ the finish. Fun place to watch.

Dan, I agree... you get those shifts right, and get the launches settled a bit, and your 60 fts will come down and get into the 13's no problem.

What every happened with Wes' car??? I didn't see anymore runs.

Ohhh, and I got vids and pics to put up soon as well. I don't know how to post vids here, but I can always email you guys your runs. Not the good runs, but they are runs.

Appearantly it just shut off and then didn't want to turn back on. I took a vid with Dan's camera, there weren't any flames and couldn't hear any pops from the exhaust. It ran fine on the way home.

ahhhhh well, I figured when I was leaving and saw all of his stuff gone that you guys left. The fact that I didn't see it parked along the road on the way home was a good sign...

Yeah, between another exploding car scare and me going to work today, I wanted to get home.

On a side note - I HATE ALLERGIES...that is all.

We left the track around 9:50 ish.... I didn't get home until after 10:30, so it was a rough start to the day here...

I can honestly say I have no seasonal allergies, nor have I ever. I'm allergic to poison Ivy, Sumac, etc... but nothing like pollen, dogs, cats, work, smoke, women, etc...
