For those of you who couldn't make it or didn't see the post until today definately keep an eye out for the next one, you won't regret it. You get to meet fellow Evolution owners, hang out for alittle then go drive on some kick a!! roads, it was awesome.

Craig, next time maybe cut the length in half so that myself and my co-pilot aren't beat by the end 100+ miles on roads like that were awesome but, man was I tired by the end.

Anyway, for those of you who didn't make attached are some pictures to tease you.

For the lucky few that did come let me know if you would like a CD with the pics, I would be more than willing to send one. I was able to get some good pictures but, I am sure our free lance photographer got some better ones

We should all meet up for a track day event. Trust me, for those that have not done one yet that is were the Evolution was born to run

Adam
Stop the crying....

You know why I didnt make it

Great pics guys..

Adam...
I have put about 20 of these together over the years with all my difference car clubs and never heard.. make it shorter.. You are spoiled by the track haha.
But understand about your co-pilot.. He was quite a trooper. What a lucky dad to have such a great little guy like that.

Here are a few pics of Route 125 for those of you that were possibly interested in doing it sometime..

NOTICE THE ARROW POINTING UP!




MY FRIEND ROBS CIVIC SI.. CHECK OUT THE INSIDE RIGHT TIRE..

Ah - Thanks!

sorry about the view - However, we all had to suffer from Craig's exhaust note

The other WW evo had a beautiful tone - your friend with the Eagles jersey

Craig, yeah I guess your right. Regardless though this was awesome. Definately setup at Rt. 125 run ASAP, please

When I got home my son was still ramping to go out and play in the park for another hour or so. Then he HAD to ride his Harley. Watch out Formula 1 of Moto GP

I second Meanmud

FYI - There is a track day even at Pocono at the end of September for those of you interested. Let me know if anyone is interested in going as I will probably go and anyone is more than welcome to roll up with me.

Finally posted all the pictures in like 1300x900 resolution. Check them out, there are a ton. Some good, some bad but overall free HAHA. It was fun and an experience, I'm still learning the ins and out the camera. I didn't crop all the final ones here. They seem pretty good with color and cropping by themselves.

If you want all the photos, either just the edits or originals, give me an email (andand@temple.edu) Or if you want just couple. If you want to order any for actual prints by chance, I'd suggest www.AdoramaPix.com . They use high quality inks and paper. They also have a deal on 11x14s, for $1.99 until August 28th.

Finsihed gallery, bout 400 some shots I believe:

That sucks. Let us know if you get there in one piece. Were you having problems during the run? I started seeing you fall back at one point and was wondering if it was your trans.

"meanmud," by the way... your car was look'n good.

greatsave9, is your email address correct and working? I tried to send you an email but, it came back as no good.

I was interested in a CD, if possible, of all the pictures from the drive as well as the pictures you have of me autocrossing. Let me know if you can put together a CD with all of those pictures.

Thanks

Adam
