Sorry. I've been a mess for the past 2 days . . . I couldn't get to those who PM'ed me. I will see you all there at 8pm. We'll have fun.

Till then, be safe.

PS - I'll be in a Blue PT Cruiser. It's easy to spot.

PPS - No Z sucks.

PPPS - I feel like carpet bombing the Sisquis in Oregon.

PPPPS - Maybe I shouldn't be so violent?

PPPPPS - My car is at a bodyshop now and it's gonna be repaired. I'm gonna do some other modifications while I'm at it like suspension, wheels, tires, bodykit, etc, etc, etc . . . . . .

Nice meeting all you guys ~ sorry I took off so soon after our 2 runs...my wife was waiting to get picked up.

**When I first got back into the Z, it felt like a BOAT w/ power steering on Steriods! we'll have to make it out there again!

Oh man...that was too fun! It was great to meet all of you. We gotta do that again sometime in the new year.

Alright and now for the moment of truth...... The Results!

Heat 1: (we get there and warm up)

Heat 2: (the fast guys arrive)

Okay, let the massive wave of postings begin! Feel free to defend your performance however you choose or comment on anyone else's for fun.

Triple8Sol; I'm gonna have to pedal a lot harder next time if I want to keep up w/ you. You're just too fast dude.

Oh man, the carnage in the 2nd race! The chaos! Oh, way too funny...

My "fastest lap" time in the second run was a little slower than first however my overall average improved by .5 seconds... next time I think it'll be even better.

You think you're sore after 2 races, I did 4! (Couldn't pass up that 4th one is free offer.) I did improve my best lap time to 37.089 in the last race though... but that was dodging a bunch of idiots who didn't know what they were doing.

I was driving so awkward and carefully on the way home. There was an Elise that looked like it wanted to play on 405 but I was afraid I'd bump off the guardrail or do something retarded with my go kart reflexes.

We definitely gotta make this a monthly or semi-monthly thing, what a blast. I'm gonna be a wreck in the morning though.

I was just calculating the chances of you actually coming over the hill. The tree and light pole looked pretty sturdy though

Was lots of fun. We'll def have to do it again in the new year.

Hopefully I can find a new job by next outing so I won't have to be oncall all the time and I will join you guys.

Anyone has any openings for software dev?

yeah I was a little worried about going over the hill.
luckily all I got was a slightly bruised ego.
nothing a few cold beers and a loving fiance couldn't take care of.

Like the Vette that wanted to play with me. Better be safe instead of hitting the guardrail, flipping, and making a thread called "Another Z Totalled."

The road conditions weren't very great either. And you know you can smoke an Elise on the freeway haha.

Oh and about my crappy times. First run was my first-ever Karting experience. Second run, I got stuck on the wall. It's a valid excuse!!! Lol.

We def. need to hang out again.

Scott, I can't tell if you are being serious about the whole karting thing or if you sarcastically wanted to jump on the noob-wagon and bring up an old post.


But I'll put my money on the sarcasm.
