And two blue evo's would be just weird, your lucky if you see one, two is pure crazyiness.

 

My Evo is still apart. After re-checking with the vendors, it might be another two weeks before I have all the parts back and everything installed.

And the weather is nice too...

 

sorry I bailed - entourage was getting a little too conspicuous

raced, did you end up running with the corrado?

 

To all that are interested, some of us went to rock falls this past weekend and i was able to muster a 12.6 out of my car. I am going to head to ceader falls in a few weeks in attempts to get a better time out of it, since i could not hook at slippery falls. I know it has some more in her

 

oh!! that was you? i didnt even think to ask if you were on evom. im the guy with the blue evo that got your last run on video.....ill be damned

 

Is there any way you can get me that video ???

 

Maybe next time I will run mine. Overall I thought it was pretty fun. 6 4g63's in the top 3 classes. good showing for mitsu.

 

yea, it shouldnt be a problem. it wasnt my camera so it may be a few days, but if you pm me your email and the file isnt to big i can send it out when i get it on my computer.

 

Raced,
That's a pretty good time. I think i met you couple of weeks ago down at the Midway. I was in the yellow evo.

Good run, hopefully you'll get in the low 12s next time

 

Im going down to Cedar Falls this weekend if anyone would like to tag along, a bunch of other people are coming from the area too, just a thought.

 

And lets get this cruise a rollin. The weather is pretty darn good, lets get a date set.

 

Well I was going to mention today, but it's a little late.

How about next sunday?

 

Next Sunday there is an AutoX scheduled by the MN Autocross folks. That would not affect me, but I'm not sure who might be going.

May 16th has two track days. One is AARRF (www.aarrf.com) at the Dakota County facility. The second is a VSCR (www.vscr.org) event at BIR.

My new cams haven't shown up yet (over one month and still waiting...) so I'd be up for almost anything.

 

Is your car driveable. I would be interested in going. I have about 1000 miles left on my stock tires and got more to put on and would like to burn them off at a road course. Do you know what the cost is??

 

Hi Raced, it would be great to see you again! Here's what I have planned so far.

Tonight I'll probably head down to University and sit in the Scoobie lot (Firestone) for a while. I haven't had a chance to show off my new wheels or talk to anyone all winter.

On Saturday SpeedLab is having an open house from 10 AM to about 2 PM. They are located in the Hopkins Business Center in Hopkins. I don't know much about them other than they have an Evo and the owner, Noel, seems to have some decent motorsports experience. Their number is 952-931-9595 for more info. I'll be heading down about noon to check them out.

This Sunday at 8:00 AM I am planning to go down and check out the autocross in the Midway Stadium parking lot. (www.mnautox.com - check the schedule) I want to try out my new R compound tires and get a feel for how well my coilovers are working. The event allows arrive & drive, so I'll try to get in that way.

If you're interested in some road course action, there are a couple of track days scheduled. VSCR has a test day scheduled for Saturday May 8th in St. Cloud. It's a fun track and the cost isn't too bad. $30 to join VSCR and $55 for the track day. Much cheaper than a speeding ticket when you factor in the insurance bump.

May 16th is a track day with AARRF. It will cost a bit less, and will be at the Dakota County Technical Institute's Tractor-Trailer driver's training course.

I plan on attending both of those events. VSCR events seem to require a pre-registration, AARRF events are arrive and drive, but you save $10 if you pre-register. I believe both events allow spectators for a nominal fee (like $5). I can take passangers at AARRF events, so if you would like a ride with someone who is actually crazy enough to abuse their Evo on a track show up and say hi.

For those who don't know, my car is basically a Vishnu Stage 1 with JIC coilovers and a set R compounds. I have some new mods sitting on the shelf, but I'm still wating on more parts and some new software before I can put it all together.
