[InSepsis]

Umm... I might be down there to test my car's new suspension out... but I an not sure if I will have tire money :(


I would be fine taking someone's ride for spin ^_^

[advser]

I need to get in a hurry and get my damn car fixed.......
procrastinating to long and now the season is upon us and i am not ready.

[randomtuner]

[racerX 244]

Someone should let me ride with them :D

most people are open for ride-alongs. just sign the waiver, get a wristband, grab a helmet and take a spin :)

[mittens]

I'm in for sunday. I work saturday's now. :(

Shitty tires are shitty as well. And I hope I can get my swaybar mount fixed so I can at leas have a front swaybar, lol.

[e2blade]

no money :(

[turbo2cam]

i might bring the lex out. stretched tires on wide rims might now like to take corners without laying the lip on the ground lol we'll see.

[goblin]

I'm going to try and make it out there.

Kevin

[expensive_habit]

should be able to make it. I don't know if I'll run though.

[Livestrong]

Can't make it =( I'll be up in P-town till monday

[InSepsis]

I will be there for sure but probably won't run my car... I need tires money :(


But if someone has some tires to sell for cheap (anything from 205/50-15 to 225-50-15) I might be about to come out.

[StanceSlyder]

ill try to stop by , if not sat morning, sunday morning, prolly wont drive but ill come chill wiht everyone, mayeb some ride alongs

i need new front tires before i try anything, well that and expendable money

[DubstepDave]

I'll be there both days, unless something breaks. See you all there...

[blackmamba2448]

I'm there. Hopefully I'll
Have the z back to drive to the event but prolly not. Either way I'll be driving the h stock mazda3 and am gunning for 1st overall RAW. Not PAX. Just kidding but I'll give rides to whoever wants them.

[DubstepDave]

gunning for 1st overall RAW. Not PAX.

:stupid:

(j/k, you'll definitely be up there in top 10 for PAX though)

[blackmamba2448]

Thx. ^
Get to work the new clutch in it too. Anyone have any feedback on exedy?

[InSepsis]

In general I haven't heard anything bad about exedy clutches... are you just getting a new clutch or a flywheels as well ?

[Gregory]

I'll be out there filming again, don't know if I'll go both days yet.

[Jserman]

prob show up and watch... maybe do some ride alongs... don't think the 240 will be p and running but maybe...

never heard anything bad about exedy either D.. just seat it in real good and call it a day...

[blackmamba2448]

My dad just got the replacement clutch. No fly. I was justcurious.

[ScottyStyles]

I'll be there, missing every apex, and mashing the gas too much... but I'll be there, and I'll be having fun.

[spastik]

ill be there, kicking the ass of scottystyles :P

[ScottyStyles]

ill be there, kicking the ass of scottystyles :P

Stupid CRX... at least I don't have a big dent in my car.

[spastik]

i can make one buddy! haha

[cosmo105]

I'll be there as well kicking Scotty's butt.

[DubstepDave]

And I will be there kicking all your butts :crossjerk:

[racerX 244]

And I will be there kicking all your butts :crossjerk:

you gotta get past me first punk! :wiggle:

[DubstepDave]

By season's end, I hope to be battling with Densmore and the likes for top PAX. Only really need a few more things for the car to get there in SM (then it will be a matter of fixing the loose nut behind the wheel :prolo: )

[shenrie]

And I will be there kicking all your butts :crossjerk:

:metallicblue: Uh hu, I think I heard this last year too. Something about how bad my hp to weight ratio was vs how good your was, lol.

[DubstepDave]

Yeah, yeah. I know. Just having a little fun. But in all seriousness, if I'm in town all summer (might end up going and working in Yellowstone for the summer) then I really should be up there. I'm putting down more power this year, and finally have some real race rubber. All I need now is a LSD and a few other small things (and most importantly, work on my driving).

[blackmamba2448]

im pulling my hair out waiting for this! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[DubstepDave]

6 days and counting...

[DubstepDave]

5 days...

Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention yesterday, I am hoping that I can even drive by then. I may have fractured my right ankle taking a slap shot off the inside of it during a hockey tournament in Rock Springs this weekend :mad:. So, hopefully it isn't fractured, but if it is, I will just be out there shooting photos and hanging out. Pretty bummed about it.

[DubstepDave]

4 days... who else is ready to rock!?!?

I'm not right now, my ankle is really fucked. But on the positive side, the weather looks VERY promising for Saturday, but Sunday doesn't look quite as good right now. Hopefully it will change.

[ScottyStyles]

I'm so excited, I just can't hide it.

[expensive_habit]

Hey, does anybody know what time the autox starts?

[ScottyStyles]

Be there right around 8.

[expensive_habit]

Be there right around 8.

Sweet, thanks!!

[DubstepDave]

Well, it's just after 1:00am on the morning of the first race, and I am drunk and just got in from the garage. I will see you guys in about 6.5 hours, ready to race. And please excuse me if I'm still a little drunk when I get there :D

And just to clear it up, registration is from 8-9, and we start running at about 10 or 10:30. If you want to run, try to be there by about 8:30 or at the latest 8:45.

[InSepsis]

I will be there... don't know how early, but I will be there for this :)


getting rides and maybe taking some photos...

[jfrolang]

I want to see pics. I didn't go because I am sick and don't feel like even standing up.

[StanceSlyder]

gonan try and show up for some if not for all, checkin it out, maybe ride alongs

[racerX 244]

[StanceSlyder]

ya for sure, im the guy in the black and white volcom zip up, most likely with a hat, i'd like to do a ride alone if that cool. i know us miata's dont have much power so i dont wanna kill your times, but ill try and find ya

[DubstepDave]

Fuck this weekend. Worst weekend of racing evar. The rain yesterday, which happened to fall during all of my morning runs and lightly during my afternoon runs. And today, the bitter cold and wind, making it impossible to get ANY grip out of my V710's, not to mention having one tire not hold ANY pressure between runs, and the timing equipment failing and having to start the clock by hand for every single run of the day and getting false finishes all day. I'm not happy with this weekend at all, and I will be drinking myself to sleep tonight. Thank god the next event is a month away, and it should be NICE and warm by then. But then again, it IS Idaho, and we have the most fucked up weather anywhere.

[StanceSlyder]

you were way squirrely today, but hey i had fun hangin out, it was cool to meet some of you, thanks to everyone who was friendly today

[Tom]

It was a fun thing to watch this weekend.

[shenrie]

Stance, saw your car all weekend, but I never saw you by or in it, lol. Nice little ride man!

Ya, this weekend was not the best for racing, but I still had a lot of fun. Corded 5 tires...and still have a few more tires I need to get out of the garage before I buy anymore.

I cant believe I beat Chris in Chris's STi on Sunday. He smoked me by a second and a half on Saturday.

[Gregory]

I should have all the videos that I took on Saturday (wasn't there on Sunday) uploaded to youtube (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=gregorygdp&view=videos) by the end of the day and I have the snapshots that I took up on flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/44902111@N00/sets/72157616080918442/detail/) as well.

[DubstepDave]

Nice videos. Thanks. Too bad you got my first two runs, where I spun on both of them. That's cool though...

BTW, It's Scirocco, with only 1 "R" and 2 "C"s, not Scirroco.

[Gregory]

haha I'll go fix my spelling errors.

i was in it for the whole second half, i picked up my girl and came back and we sat in the car since it was too windy for her

[shenrie]

Your right, I did notice people in there, but thats when I was running...and I dont blame you at all. It was waaaay to cold to stand out in that shit weather, especially if your not even running.

During my run groups, I was sitting in my car, bs'ing with my friend that came out for the day, with the heat cranked. It made working that much worse, because I'd gotten used to the warmth inside my car...

[Tyraid2K]

it was a good time
see i am on g208 brendan

[Dan-O]

OOBER FUN but cold brrrrrrr
