Did you think about my advice on getting the rods welded on the bottom of the car for the night glow?

 

sadly ill be on the same tires off of my volks. mindlesschild is the gentleman that bought my volks

 

Thanks guys, I have been on a roll the past 3 weekends. For the record it took me 10 years to beat Corey, 10 years WTF that took a little to long! We both started Autoxing the same season in SM, so we were in the same class then and now we are back in same class. In between we ran different classes so technically not 10 years straight but you get the point.
My camera crapped out on my last 2 runs of course that was one of my fast runs. Here is a dirty 48.440 plus one.
That course was bad ***, third gear for a while, four wheel drift into the finish, love that gut check stuff, total rush...

On another note, Craven, Olincheck and myself went to the Brick House on 611 right by the turnpike. That place is totally cool and we all must go there after the next event. They had some beer served from a casket, bartender was pumping that **** up into a glass, I had dirty thoughts.

Last thing, there are events coming up at the Meadowlands with NNJ and MS-NE. There is a AM - PM event on August 8th and one on the 15th. We are talking 4th gear courses and off the hook grip, this is per 2 guys I have spoken to from that area. These events will be worth the trip, I think I am going to do the 15th. The 8th PM Autox sounds cool too, racing into the dark is crazy.

Long post as I sit here drinking my Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA, puffing the 420 and smiling

 

I'm going to save watching your video until I get home so I can have HD and sound too! That was some steller driving man, you are on a roll. I'm supposed to go to the Glen Aug 13th-15th, but I'll see about the 8th.

I'm still smiling from that course yesterday, I've never been on anything like that. You guys who couldn't make it really missed out. Ben, looks like you made a wise choice jumping to SM.

happy monday bishes.

 

2 Things:

1. Who's coming to Yards on Friday?

2. Who coming with me to PCA autox at the Reading Airport on August 15th?

 

I'm in for Yard's

Checking on the 15th. I've learned to not make any promises.

 

that looked like an very fast course yesterday. not confusing to follow either.

 

1) - No, too far for me. No more trips to the city on friday nights right after work, the 1.5hr commute just aint worth it.

2) - Probably not. We'll see though...

 

It was really good, like Marc said, you guys missed out.

 

1.5 hours during friday rush hour is pretty decent. try doing that commute twice daily.

i would kill for a job closer to home but i don't think i will ever have that opportunity.

 

If it was way I made a living I'm sure I would look at it differently. You gotta do what you gotta do.

 

^you never know...

4 years ago I used to travel to and from Boston MA on a weekly basis for work. It sucked, 6-8 hours up and between 8-10 on the way back depending on traffic. Thats how I racked up so many miles on my EVO in the first few years of ownership (110k currently). Now I'm working 6 miles from home and loving every minute of it.

 

that would be seriously awesome if my commute only about 20-30 minutes. i could sleep extra, walk the dog and maybe work out in the morning. i could still do all that if i like getting up at 4am. this past winter i had several FML moments when shoveling the driveway at 4am in the dark.

 

Dan, what size wheels did you end up going with?
