Pittsburgh Raceway -- Friday, July 14 - Sport Compact Night

Gates Open at 5:30 PM
Spectators $10 / Kids 12 & under are Free

Who's all coming? So far:

1) Dan
2) Myself
3) Possibly Brian (project_redline on the RL forums).

We need to swamp them w/ LSJs.

And I actually have the day off, too. I wanna see how my car does w/ the 3.1 pulley on.

 

hey...long time no see bud....

I will be there as well. I won't be running, but I'll be there. My cuz is going to be one of the imports there, so I'm going to hang out with everyone, both foriegn and domestic.

 

Awesome man. Maybe some good video?

All's well with me. Odd work schedule (working @ a B&N...best job I've had in a long time), so I don't have much time to be on. Just plugging along till school starts.

Car's running fine. Dan did a 3.1 pulley swap for me on Friday. Good bump in power. I'm looking for a stage 1 now. I'm addicted to boost...Ah, and bought new tires (Goodyear Eagle F1s on closeout from tirerack...$88 ea!). But I'll be leaving the stock Dunlops on to get the last bit of wear from them.

See ya on Fri. man!

 

Sounds good. Looks like I'm going to be doing alot of running in the car in the next week.

I am not sure when the TNT is for PRP, but I might be there for that.... there is a TNT for autocross at BR, so I might be there for that, and then the import night @ PRP on Firday.

Wow... look at all those 3 letter abbreviations....

Sounds greta about the tires... I put Khumo ECSTA SPT's on the SS and got them for 130 a tire...

I rubbed a good bit off this past weekend, and know more is to come...

Look forward to getting to hang out again.

 

BUMP!


ANyone planning on being up at PRP FIrday night...or what???


I'll be there as long as the weather cooperates, adn it looks as it will...

 

I just know Dan said he's coming. Doesn't look like a lot of interest.

 

Dave will be working Friday night. I would have considered coming but I'm finishing up a hellish week of class plus by Friday I will be SO sick of driving on 22...LOL.

 

Hmmmmmm

If nothing else... where there are import cars, cute ladies usually follow... so I got the camera charged.

Jon, By Dan, you mean the Redline driving Dan right??

 

Yes, he does. I'm not going to make it to this one.

 

ohhhh ok....

Gotcha

Been a quiet week from the burghbalts....

 

i would come but i got kennywood scheduled for that day, maybe next month when they have it again

 

As do I. Haven't been to Kennywood in a couple years so I figured me and the girlfriend would go out after work for the evening.

CelicaCobalt, do you work at UPMC by chance and park down on Second Avenue by Hot Metal Street Bridge?

 

Well.... I'm still planning on being there....

Jon... RL Dan has my #....Have him call me and let me know what time you guys are getting there.

 

I'm still planning on going, and most likely running.

 

looks like ill be rocking the jeep...satty still at the dealer

on a side note jeep got better gas mileage than the ions tank before last

jeep 17 ion 16

also noticed that if i look in the filler area of the jeep i can see the ground...cause that is where i punched my hand thru the rust lol

 

Why is the Ion at the stealership????

Going to turn over 30K miles tonight on the way home from the races... wooo hooo.... not even 11 months old yet....

 

yeah i do, how did you know that?

 

Wild guess here.... but I'm gonna go with... he probably saw your car there.

 

I use to see it there everyday cause I parked there for the past year (black Ion Redline). By the discription of your car, I figured that was the one. I like the painted Chevy emblems. Looks sharp.

I recently got a parking spot in oakland (and a Cobalt SS/SC), so I don't park on 2nd avenue anymore. I'm assuming it was you that I drove by on the parkway near the Carnegie exit yesterday around 3:30 (I was heading outbound, Laser blue SS/SC).

 

Good luck tonight! I wanna see some slips by the end of the weekend Wish I could make it...that's one bad thing about having your own business (if you slack off, it only hurts yourself )

 

Check over on the RL forums. My best was 14.4 @ 96.
