It was Amy and her fastest time was a 1:22 something but it was clean in her 99' Elantra.

 

Jeeze you guys are eating them alive about the autoxing lol.

Dan and Josh - just do as many events as you can and have time for. You will drop time every event

 

its not a bad lot, very big and long (how you and chu like it I heard), but there are some bad spots. however, the course designers usually design the course around those 'features' so you don't have to worry.

I hope they're grandma's cookies.

that last part about Amanda and her Elantra is fu(kin funny though...
I remember tech'n that car thinking WTF was this girl thinking. you should have seen the state of dis-repair it was in. amazing she even finished the event w/o breaking down. she even had a bubble on the sidewall of her front tire, but we let her go and just told her to keep an eye on it. who would have thought she was going to out drive Dan.

 

OK, I'll keep the alignment specs as they are. The car does understeer a little compared to my Yokohama stock wheel setup though. We'll see. I'll just concentrate on learning to drive in an AutoX session instead of worrying about all this, it might be too much effort for nothing in return given my driving level. I sure hope its going to be warm to hot weather, the tires shine so much in that climate. If it rains, I'll be all over the place.

 

good point. I forget that not everyone has coils and can reach more the -2* camber. I was running more camber last year on Z1's then I am now on hoosiers because I needed the strut to wheel clearance for the larger width tires.

 

smart move. work on the driver before the car. and btw, those RE-11's are AWESOME rain tires... don't let a little water scare you.

 

That's it Marc!! I'm bringing my colaspable octagon and we are going to have at it at warminster. Better bring a mouth piece. You'll need it and I am not talking about a prison mouth piece.....the ones that keep your teeth in your head.

God damn white people, I swear!!

 

You have a collapsable octagon that fits in your x? Game on

 

I was cleaning out my PM box this weekend and came across one called 'beatdown'. do you remember the thread that started it? I couldn't for the life of me, but I'd like to see what a d-bag I was.

 

Depending on the night, you can get a bunch of runs at Maple Grove. I did 7 within 2 hours at MG one night. That is the exception, but it can happen.

Maple Grove also redid their launch pad this year.


Sorry Dan, that made me chuckle.

**I'll be with you when I finally auto-x.**



In other news....I survived my bachelor party in Atlantic City this weekend. Stayed at the Borgota in a rediculously expensive suite on Saturday night. Didn't win any cash gambling either, so no new turbo kit for me this year. I was playing 3 card poker and the one guy hit a stright flush at the table. He won $2,500....if only...

 

Well hook him up then!



Saw this yesterday, needed an excuse to post it up

 

Nice!

Is this your wedding Tim? If so whens the big day?

You need to get them onboard for a little sponsor action Marc...

 

i forget too. i was a dbag too. i just got sick of the all the forum knowitalls. f^cking forum ******s (FFF) as i've adopted david hsu's term.

i deleted the beatdown pm's recently too.

you need to do an autox badly. josh and john both went off course frequently. i just did it more.....er for all my runs. if you're good at following figure 8 racing with some slaloms tossed in then you'd be a shoe in.

i heard about your bachelor party from nick. i guess my invitation got lost or something. if you need my address PM me

 

Thats weird. Did anyone else hear the sound of a zipper going down and heavy breathing when they read the above post?

I got it right 3 out of 4 runs so clearly you need me to teach you.

 

Really!!! Somehow I feel more in control with my Winter setup (Michelin PA3 in stock dimensions and on stock wheel) in the rain.

God damn you Andy!

You mean, you'd be in the passenger seat screaming at me at the top of your lungs STOP !!!!RIGHT!!!!NO THE OTHER RIGHT!!! etc.....great, I'm up for it. I somehow do a lot better when I'm under pressure to do it right.
