I believe that was the general time frame. Barring any conflicts with hockey/football games.

On a race track.....I say we put an event together.......Three things...auto cross,road track(beaver run), and last drag race(1/4 mile).....who can run all three events with the best time..Figure out a points system for second, third fourty , etc....highest points wins....

I guess I better find a car to Drive

I know everyone want to bash Eric so lets see who wants to race him.....
And for beaverun...Eric ran the show the days I was out there...

I have been a car freak since i was very young,,,To this day nothing makes me smile more than watching one of the cars I built race...Go fast or go home...
I love that idea, but I'd bet you have a better chance of winning the powerball than it actually happening.

Net Saturday at 7pm is a Hockey game. Does that make a difference? How about 11/19?

Eh, there isn't any other car made (with it's pistons facing the right way) that is as fun in the summer and tractable, but still fun in the winter then the EVO with the correct tires. Pretty amazing these cars are.

this is true, but i do hate the feeling of snow tires on the car.

i also feel a bit cheated since due to the shoulder my entire summer racing season has been blown. it will probably be another two months before i really have enough power in my shoulder (and a low pain level) to actually make use of it for turning a wheel. by that time we will be all cowering inside with single digit temps i bet.

that sounds good to me. i haven't been to the fox in forever, and it's been almost as long since we have had a north hills meet.

I'm working on a theory here. It may sound far fetched, but I think it makes sense. I think that mitsumaster and eric are in fact one in the same person. Before you laugh (or lol or ) think about it. I think someone created these two personalities - like a Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hide - just to make things interesting and keep people off balance here.

Here's some of my reasoning:
Dr. Jeckyl make thoughtful posts. He's well respected for his knowledge and skills.
Mr. Hyde is very polarizing. People love to hate him. He will make a post and he is imediatly scoffed at or ridiculed.
My Hyde will say something like. "I'm building a 500hp X." The reaction he gets is "You're crazy. You can't do that and if you did you would mess it up." Then Dr. Jeckyl will say "I just built a 500hp X." The reaction he gets is "Wow, how did you do it. It has to be a solid car because YOU built it."
Mr. Hyde will talk about his racing experience and he's laughed at and called names. Dr. Jeckyl suggests setting up a race and he has people offering their cars to him. "Here Dr. Jeckyl, you can drive my car." "NO Dr. Jeckyl, you can drive MY car."

Doesn't this make a little sense now???? Has anyone actually seen the two of them in one place at the same time? To me, you are all a bunch of screen names and avitars. Now that I think about some more, MondoBongo may be part of the same person. This person has a deep self loathing and part of his therapy is to agrue with himself and vent these frustrations on the computer. So a third personality was created to provide a means for all these suppressed feelings and anger to spout off.

Well. Do I make a good point or not? I think it's no mistake, all this is the work of one person. We are just pawns in their twisted game.

This would be an absolutely hilarious prank of all time, however they are all separate entities.
