PCD: Last year's version
Ice3, Confusion, then I'll summon Odin. B!tch.
I am in
Also want to thank you again for the ride this year, car is unbelievable and I have had a ton of fun driving it. I hope next year when I beat you every event you don't become mad at me
, because this ish aint a game and I am done foolin around. All I have to do is master slaloming then I will WIN
Why I still cannot slalom after 13 years of autox is a mystery. I understand the technique, just never apply in race situation. I think all year I did 4-5 slaloms correctly, probably 30 + wrong. Little frustrated with myself
I took my wife out for her first ever on track ride-along ...while I expected her to tell me she didn't want me to do this anymore (she was out while I was still on dead tires so she had a mostly sideways ride), I didn't expect her to say, "You can't do this anymore until you get seats/harnesses/rollbar." Winter Build Budget: Approved.

Congrats to Aaron and Mike! Finishing strong!
Marc and I represented PCD at Thunderbolt yesterday where just about everyone was a BMW-CCA racer. The morning was tricky for me I couldn't hang with Marc at all as I was fighting a terrible loose on entry condition and couldn't put any power down in lefts...I'd drift Octopus without trying...Made some damper and pressure adjustments but that didn't help anything.
I knew my Continental slicks were about dead (heat cycled) going into the day, but didn't expect what I found when I took the slicks off after lunch: Cords showing on the right rear....went back to my Star Specs and Marc and I proceed to school the other E36 M3s and SE36s too.
Marc and I shared a "We gonna die!" moment while I was riding b!tch with him in the morning...a fully prepped E36 IP car money shifted going into T4 and dumped oil...Marc was four cars back and he did a great job to slide and dodge the other cars that were also not-quite-in-control. He has video, but doesn't capture the drama as much as we thought.

Perfect way to end the season...used up race tires...car driven home (and then to work today) and permission to buy more parts. Woot.

Yesterday was a blast. It was a ton of fun chasing similar cars and passing faster ones.
There were def some fast cars & drivers there. I have some really good cat and mouse battles on video. Justin was trying to get the DK title in the AM on those hoosiers. ONce he put the street tires on in the afternoon he picked up the pace big time. we were neck and neck every turn except for the devils elbow and the pus, where i would gain a little bit. It took me like 6 laps to close a couple car lenghts gap and finally get the point-by. then he got caught in traffic and I was able to keep moving at the same pace so it was all over. Really fun day, glad I was able to end the season on such a positive note.
I did +/-200 track miles in 8hrs and only spent $80 on gas. Gotta love the UDM for cheap fun factor. As a side note my otherwise stock m3 with just struts and springs is only a couple 10ths slower a lap as my EVO with intake, tune, exhaust, coils & sways.
I ate at Capital Grille in CC on New Years last year, was not cheap but was excellent.
Maybe I should become a Networking Expert. Looks like my problem is fixed still no Syn floods on my router logs.
My wife got the comcast triple play, so now they will be bringing a new modem for the voice line. I have read that there gateways are noting but problems. Evertything is in one, modem, router and wifi. The range is supposedly terrible. Anyone have the SMC modem from Comcast, if so how is it working?

Sounds like a nice plan.
