I only see one Evo..

What's going on?

 

Is that one car your Evo? If not, I really don't think you have ground to stand on with this topic..huhu

Ground to stand on? What are you taking about?

Are the folks who ran last year not running this year, or running something other than an Evo?

 

just a joke dude. Your post title, and secondary title made it sound like you were egging us on....cause we are too scared to run the 1 lap.

 

ou812, david jordan, did it last year. I have no idea if he is doing it again or not.

 

I am hoping with a year of tuning and all these dyno graphs, we'd get to see someof that put to good use! I'm going to go to the Hallet event at least a spectator unless I can dig up enough sponsorship funding to cover the tires, fuel and such to drive. But it's not a priority this go round.

 

There were only 2 Evos last year; 1 sold his Evo, not sure about the other.

 

I'll be at the OneLap Track school (Beaver Run) in my Corrado on April 3 (not doing the 2 day, just one day). I'd love to use the EVO but can't risk it with the family car...
If any of you are going (there is still room), stop by and chat with me.

 

Dj still has his Evo, not sure if he is going to run one lap this year. Are they running different tracks this year.

 

Yeah, this year's route is a lot longer and takes you out to California, whereas last year's route was confined to the central US.

 

Yah this years event seems more like a recipe for lots of misery..

5628 Miles in 9 days + circuit racing time/miles. The Pikes Peak to Infineon Leg of 1327 Miles in 24 hours means nonstop driving for nearly 48 hours. No time even for a flat tire and especially not any mechanical problem.. Race, drive 1327 Miles and Race immediately again. No sleep, or a race driver who sleeps between events and a route driver who tries to sleep at the track.. that leaves a lot of very tired folks doing a lot of lengthy driving..

I bet I'll get a lot of pictures of sleepy folks at Hallet.

 

Yeah, I don't really "get" the One Lap. That's an awful lot of highway slogging for a couple of laps around each circuit. I can't even imagine how many tickets you'd get.

I'd much rather run the OTC on the west coast. Much better track time:highway time ratio. The Targa Newfoundland is what I'd really love to do. About 1000 km of all-tarmac rally racing. You can run it as a performance rally or as a TSD event. I understand there haven't been any Evos yet...

I just heard abou the Newfoundland event last year and am hoping to making it up for the next event if just to watch or run in a low class to get acclimated.
