my favorite pic of them all...

Once again, sorry so many of the pics are of just my car... I wish I hooked up with you guys before lunch, I could've had him take more pics of everybody.

Man, that looks like fun. I wish I could have been there, but alas, work calls. George, who went with you? Hank?

Damn guys, I'm so jealous!

I had to back out at the last minute. A couple weeks ago I noticed my front tires are wearing extremely uneven (like new on the outside and completely treadless on the inside). Well it turns ou the toe on my front wheels was way out. I fixed the alignment but I couldn't afford to get new tires before the track day.


Yuichi, are you in the B group now? Feel free to rub it in.

A man Shaun, I thought I was tripping. I saw you signed up on the clubz list, then I checked the day before we left and your name was gone. Sorry we missed you man. I'm sure we'll catch you at the next one.

Shaun,

Yah we missed you, I was expecting you out there.! I actually signed up for A but they put in my B. I found I had a nail in my tire the night before so I missed all the runs until noon.

I asked if they could let me run in A and B so I ran in both when I could. After I spun out at the corkscrew they gave me a S for solo Approved. I stayed with the A group the rest of the day, because we have psycho drivers like Chad and Dennis in group B Oh yah and it was starting to come down hard at the end of the day.

So now I'm officially a BS get it BS huh huh huh (beavis and butthead type laugh)


<---Best BS driver this side of town.

wait a minute here... I know Chad was the crazy one with that 100 octane fuel.... I almost got Solo approved.... except for the minor spin oout....
I think you can not be solo approved if you DON'T have a spin out... just mean u didn't push your car hard enough

I still have dream about my instructor yelling..."more fuel..... more fuel...."

I think after that, none of the instructor wanted to ride with you...... for their own safety
