The December event (6-7) will be the 1.7 mile course CLOCKWISE.

"Tell a friend we have a few spots available in the Green novice group and in the Yellow and Red advance groups."

Thanks!

 

Gah, so close to Christmas and I'm so busy on my weekends now. I will talk to the wife and see what's going on that weekend!

 

Hey BeerViper...I met GlenRose out there this past weekend. Super nice guy!!!
I didnt know yall had that history, thats cool! I saw his new C5 Z06 too...

This past weekend was fun! I got upgraded to Yellow!

Now I need to save money for Next Year!

And wanted to end with a thanks to GWord256 for starting and keeping up with this thread!!!

 

Which Z were you? There was a VERY sweet looking Nismo that I got to follow/pass my last three session.

Here's my videos (sorry for my crappy camera that shuts off after 10 minutes). And don't listen to the banter. I'm a dumbass

All the videos are here:

I was the Silver Z...#11

 

Ah ya, I commented on your wheels. Which ones are those?

 

18 Nismo LMGT4

I hope they were good comments

 

Also...what system are you using for your data acquisition?
I have the TraqMate and ChaseCam setup in mine. Cant wait to put it all together.

I need to download my pics today too, and I will upload those.

 

MaxQData system (I'm more of an autocrosser than a road course guy, so the MaxQ works better for me).

Yes they were good comments, although I'm unsure of the color (maybe a touch monochromatic?)

 

Haha yeah Randy called me and told me the news that he bought the Z06 and is back in the scene! I told him that I thought you were supposed to be there last weekend, that's cool that you guys ran into each other!

Congrats on the upgrade to Yellow!

 

Here's a video from a prepped Viper:
Um... ya... only 10-15 mph faster than me around just about every corner. His best times are 9 seconds faster than mine.

I guess 2x the HP, 2.5 the cylinders and 4x the displacement really helps. Oh... an slicks too. That's good for at least 1/2 a second

ETA: Actually I reviewed this video (from the same driver):
He's only 3-7mph faster through most turns. He out accelerates me at every straight though (duh). I think I was braking TOO much (and didn't have the slicks grip advantage he had).

Makes me want to go back out there really badly!

 

I'm currently working on building up an '09 list. TDE is starting up as soon as January 8-) But I won't be going. I need to get some prep into the car but my home loan got denied so I'm sitting on a fat 20% downpayment thats just buring a hole in my pocket! I'm thinking racing seats and necessary equipment will hold me out for a while. Suggestions on seats?

 

Go to PST when you have a chance. They have their whole Seat lineup setup in the shop. I tried out a few and know which one will fit me. Just need to decide on when to do it. Im technically still under warrantee, so I wont do it for a while.
One note...make sure the harness ports are high enough for you (usually about shoulder height). Some of the new seats made them too low and in a wreck would compress your spine.

And on the note above about the Viper...yeah...I wish I had 50-100 more hp and race slicks. HAHA... Im actually trying to look into what it would take for me to get a setup of slicks. I need to upgrade my A-arms to get the negative camber needed for slicks.

Damn this hobby is expensive! But i love it!!!

(yes i like the mono-chrome look...i have this wierd love of silver...the past 5 cars ive had are silver...go figure)

 

Here is the only pic I got of you GoofyGrin



Here is a link to my others...check out the ZR1

 

Great pictures! Did you video in the car? I like watching other drivers to see the difference in lines.
