there is to be NO passing, tailgating,

What is this then? A mountain date? If its a run, people will get passed plain and simple, if youre slower than someone behind you move out of the way.

[matthewAPM]

WTF would u pass someone 4 on a mountain run? what makes that a good idea. blind corners, tight turns, drop offs?! not only could u kill urself but u could kill someone else. its simple, faster cars in front slower cars in back. and from the looks at what ur driving, u wont be able to pass anyone anyways.

if ur gonna act like a dumbass dont ****ing come.

Ok Im glad that youre the dumbass that made all those stupid ass passes on a run that wasnt in the mountains. I seem to miss the point where you didnt endanger any lives? From the looks of your car youre a ****** who cant afford a damn tag. Kinda funny you say I cannot pass anyone. There are quite a number of people on here to vouch for me. As far as the passing in blind corners, are you a ****ing tard? There are places that are passing points as in dashed lines with two lanes. If you dont even know what a damn road consists of, you dont even need to be driving you deuchebag.

my stupid ass moves were made on a road with LONG stretches where u can see whats coming up. i also had people with radios telling me if i was clear to pass. it is just stupid to pass on mountain roads. not everyone is checking there mirrors to see if someone will pass.

and about me not getting a tag. yeah i just registered the car for the street dumbass. santa run was the 3rd day the car has been on the road. and there is no point in getting one now if i have to get it again next year.

and im sure i know what roads are made up of. asphalt, and paint. not every paint line is dashed. and if u do mountain runs often, u will notice that it is mostly double yellow. also many cops are on back roads making sure dumb ****s like u dont do stupid **** like that

and lastly, y the **** am i having a conversation with u about this? u drive a 86 accord LX that is high enough off the ground to drive over a bus. and if u plan on going on this run, dont expect me to stop when u are following me and leadfoot and put ur car into a ditch.

Lol ok fool. Obviously if you are driving as fast as you claim you will, then maybe I shouldnt go. You will be putitng lives in danger either way, and since youre basically explaining to me that youll be speeding then thats one way of putting lives in danger. Why would I expect someone to stop for me? I will stop for you out of courtesy when you make your mistake and speed into someones rear end. You know I can sit here and cuss you out, but I know youve made stupid moves already. Considering I DONT know how you drive MOST of the time, I can say I dont know you. You dont know me, so dont be so quick to judge. I dont care if youre an autocross master/self proclaimed mountain tamer or whatever. Its not the car its the driver, and judging by how you drive so far (what ive read and heard) you dont need to be on the road. It seems to me you are posting those rules to make up for the mistakes you made in the previous run. We all do stupid **** and everyone is liable for their actions. Dont try to best yourself by makig rules that you cant abide by. If I come I come, if I dont I wont. Youll either see me or you wont. One way of the other If Im there I will drive how I drive and I can expect you to drive how you will. Precations are great, just make sure you follow what you lay down for others.

[Thighs]

[green91]

I love how noobs are always appearing and arranging mountain runs lol. What happened to the old mtn run crews.

[matthewAPM]

umm ive been doing mtn runs for a while. this is just my first one with IA...**** off

[Thighs]

I love how noobs are always appearing and arranging mountain runs lol. What happened to the old mtn run crews.

at least somebody has the organization and patience to get one together.

GTFO ----------------->

[green91]

LOL so lame. ive organized plenty of runs. but i dont have the patience to deal with noob jackasses

[matthewAPM]

and no one wants to deal with bitches like u.

[Thighs]

LOL so lame. ive organized plenty of runs. but i dont have the patience to deal with noob jackasses

then stop posting in this thread. we dont have the time to deal with old ones.

[green91]

Its fine, i enjoy watching 18 yr olds that cant drive running off the side of the mountains. Been watching it for years actually.

[matthewAPM]

hmm. ur cool? if ur such a badass come out to a road race and prove urself...oo wait u dont have a race lisence. oops.

[Thighs]

Its fine, i enjoy watching 18 yr olds that cant drive running off the side of the mountains. Been watching it for years actually.

:blah::blah::blah::blah::blah::blah::blah::blah::b lah::blah::blah:

[green91]

hmm. ur cool? if ur such a badass come out to a road race and prove urself...oo wait u dont have a race lisence. oops.

I don't?

[Thighs]

I don't?

doubt it.

[matthewAPM]

I don't?

really? what is it?

[green91]

SCCA novice license at this moment, im one event away from having it completed though.

[matthewAPM]

well thats good then. there is a school in Feb. at RR in savannah. but i dont think u have any room to talk about my driving ability. as i remember i have both my FIA and SCCA lisences. if ur gonna talk **** then prove urself on the track. and until then...**** off.

[Thighs]

SCCA novice license at this moment, im one event away from having it completed though.

that doesnt mean you can drive...:no:

[green91]

god damn you are a nut swinger lol. and just because i haven't completed requirements for the regional competition license doesnt mean that i cant drive. ive lived in the mountains my entire life and have plenty of experience

[green91]

Come to think of it, ive been doing mountain runs at the same time you guys were 12.

[matthewAPM]

wow. u can drive on a ****ing mtn. want a cookie? like i said come road racing and prove urself. btw, what r u gonna race?

[green91]

i dont plan on racing any time soon, but i did my last event in one of my two EFs

[matthewAPM]

what are the EF's set up for? and if u dont complete a event within 4? months u lose it.

[MaRk2k]

well at least the new people are trying to get to know each other unlike you old fags that dont like nub cake's

[green91]

My main one is set up completely for mountain driving,

and i really dont have the time to compete anymore, so losing it is a good possibility.

[matthewAPM]

well at least the new people are trying to get to know each other unlike you old fags that dont like nub cake's

thank u man. someone that really understands this forum. reps

[matthewAPM]

My main one is set up completely for mountain driving,

and i really dont have the time to compete anymore, so losing it is a good possibility.

please explain how u did a lisencing event in a street car? if its not a car that is complient with the GCR rules then no running for u.

[green91]

LOL this is serious business! I do not even have a race license. I just enjoy busting balls of people who sit on a high horse. While i do respect those who race competitively, it isnt indicative of driving ability nor does it include everyone who has driving skill.

[matthewAPM]

LOL this is serious business! I do not even have a race license.

figured. thanks for trying but i know my sh!t. but i wont *****. people talk crap all the time b.c of my age. idc, i know what i can do. u should come to the mtn run. most of these ppl have done one before.

[matthewAPM]

LOL this is serious business! I do not even have a race license. I just enjoy busting balls of people who sit on a high horse. While i do respect those who race competitively, it isnt indicative of driving ability nor does it include everyone who has driving skill.

very true. the only reason im road racing is b.c of my team. not my parents money. many MANY people race b.c the have nothing better to do with there money. and for that reason u see ALOT of sucky drivers. all the way up to ALMS and Grand-am

[green91]

id like to come but i cant make this one. as soon as ive got my green ef back running ill be on the next run though.

[matthewAPM]

i plan on getting another one together in the spring.

[green91]

Hopefully i will make that one. Having just bought a house my play cars are on the low-priority list but i should have a new trans by then.

[matthewAPM]

wtf? no trans? check ur pm's

[Elbow]

What team Matthew

[matthewAPM]

y do u think my user name is matthewAPM?

[Elbow]

....? lol.

[matthewAPM]

u dont know? we bigger than NASCAR! lol

[Thighs]

why does the green dude think driving on a mountain road = experience? if thats true, i think my experiences on 85 make me eligible to compete in nascar. guess ill start makin some calls...

[green91]

mountain road doesnt = experience, driving time behind the wheel does. and many years of mountain driving is alot different than 85.

[matthewAPM]

drop it. its over.

[Thighs]

okay. :goodjob:

[matthewAPM]

lol. damn that was easy. so we got like 19 or 20 ppl now. anyone else interested?

[Thighs]

haha yeah just trying to be agreeable. ask rj? i wanna see him push off a cliff... lol

[matthewAPM]

haha yeah just trying to be agreeable. ask rj? i wanna see him push off a cliff... lol

yeah but no. he is a retard. he cant drive and his car is a POS. he wouldnt make it there.

[OnURleft]

lol. damn that was easy. so we got like 19 or 20 ppl now. anyone else interested?

ok now pick a day and plan it out before the week after xmas is over.

[matthewAPM]

wht? the day has been set for like a week? it is this sunday. the 30th. and we will be meeting at 9am that morning at the walmart near mall of georgia. are u going to be coming?

dude 1:43's? thats sick. on new or old surface?

[Thighs]

yeah but no. he is a retard. he cant drive and his car is a POS. he wouldnt make it there.

that would be hilarious too. im gonna invite him unless you REALLY dont want me to...

[matthewAPM]

DONT. he will say stupid **** and everyone will want to cave his head in. he is a **** idiot. no way he can go.

[mushroom_toy]

Dont rag on chris (green91). He is smarter than just about all of us, and he can drive./End.

[Thighs]

DONT. he will say stupid **** and everyone will want to cave his head in. he is a **** idiot. no way he can go.

it will be SOOOO FUNNYYY though. oh well... :(

[foety_foe]

Dont rag on chris (green91). He is smarter than just about all of us, and he can drive./End.
who ****ing cares if he is smarter (are we in second grade), who ****ing cares if a NOOB tries to get a mtn run together. kinda makes me mad that people on here rag on people new to IA. if new people never got on IA what would IA be?

but anyways, iam looking foward to the mtn. run and meeting people from IA. iam somewhat new to GA, from germany, so hope to see everybody there on sunday.

[matthewAPM]

germany? dang man that really cool. so i got to ask, have u ran on the ring?

[foety_foe]

germany? dang man that really cool. so i got to ask, have u ran on the ring?
haha, no i have not. i wish. but when i used to live in munich my dads best friend was one of the test drivers for BMW and has ran it many times. i have ran the munich to passau route many times though. lol.

[OnURleft]

wht? the day has been set for like a week? it is this sunday. the 30th. and we will be meeting at 9am that morning at the walmart near mall of georgia. are u going to be coming?

dude 1:43's? thats sick. on new or old surface?

I'd love to go, although I may have work that sunday..my bad for missing that, i'm going to try to get out of it

Those times are on the new surface which buys you about 1 sec, give or take a few tenths which i'm sure you are aware of. It was with RA1's on the 120k M3 daily driver M3 with shock/springs/pads only hah. I plan to get some solid times and hopefully low 1:40's when I go back with a Hot Lap thats not borowed :D and some actual mods as the stock car has pushed to hell in back in all different ways

[matthewAPM]

i hope u can make it. i would like to talk to u more about RA.

im very aware of the pavement change. alittle better in the rain. lol.

thats not a bad time tho. i ran someones ITS bmw in practice and got into the 1:43's. (old hoosiers). wht year was the BMW? im geussing E36? do u do HPDE's or what?

[matthewAPM]

haha, no i have not. i wish. but when i used to live in munich my dads best friend was one of the test drivers for BMW and has ran it many times. i have ran the munich to passau route many times though. lol.

badass man. ive always wanted to go to germany

[wannab20hatch]

there is to be NO passing, crossing double yellow, tailgating, and any other b.s. that can get us in trouble.

Hope to see you there!

thats an oxymoron. first off things are fine until you hit the mtn and then someone ****s it up. And 9/10 times before you even get out of dahlonega you get stopped. thats to many cars. cops will be all over this. but good luck none the less

[matthewAPM]

who cares if its that many cars? we will be so spread out it wont matter. look at the mazda meet. there is like 100+cars or something that go on that run. as long as no one is doing anything stupid (which i hope no one does) then there are no worries.

unfortunately there is always "that guy" so someone will do something stupid. the best to hope for is that no one follows his lead

whats illegal about a trip to the mountains?

Not bad. I'll try hoosiers eventually as I had always run street tires until the end of last year when I was forced to get them to be like everyone else in my run groups lol. Time seems solid for a practice run but if I remember right ITS cars can have cams etc etc? correct? I forgot where they stand with times (high 1:30's low 1:40's maybe). I have helped out alot and gone to some IP races and they run those sick 1:36-1:38's. My car is 98, with a strong motor. I do HPDE's with N.A.S.A, A.C.N.A, BMW C.C.A and P.C. I try to to as many as I can afford but its hard as a student. I dont have my racers liscense....yet, but I should have it around summer time. My time is more of what I have hit, not of a consistant time as we both know getting that consistancy in a D.E is just about impossible with traffic.

Anyhow. I'd love to see a list of who is actually confirmed and what type of car they are driving. That'd be good. I know 20 cars said they'd be into doing it but I know that many won't show.

[mushroom_toy]

Well I am going to be there and Ill be in my beater/daily driver. My 86 Honda Accord Lx-i.

The hoosiers are fast but if u ask me the kumhos are better. they have a little more feel to them, but seem to fall off faster than the hoosiers. for a trackday, i would run a kumho b.c A. there cheaper and B. u will have traffic giving u time to cool the tires.

Im not sure on the rules of ITS. i dont own one so i couldnt tell ya but i can look them up. (got to find my rule book first). the track record for a ITS car is somewhere in the 1:39's if im not mistaken. i know the SM record is in the 1:42s. ur time is really fast for a street car but if it were ur detecated track car, i bet u could drop a second or more. :goodjob:

have u ever tried a PDX with the SCCA? the events are great. if u have ur autocross license then it is free if u work that weekend and $100 if u dont. Ive run a few HPDE's but i dont seem to like them as much as PDX's. the organzation at the events is amazing.

who are u getting ur license under, FIA, SCCA, NASA etc.? i know there is a SCCA school down at RR in febuary and it only cost $800 and u get ur license in one weekend! wht do u plan on racing?

about the cars for the mtn run, CAN EVERYONE PLEASE CHECK IN! just put ur name and car in a post to confirm....matthewAPM (civic si)

I will be there. I live right down the road. Looking to make some new friends even if they are honda owners.:taun:

[matthewAPM]

Get Bent, ur added

[green91]

I do deserve some criticism for harassing these guys, its just always funny how there is always a new group who thinks they are faster and better in the mountains and i always enjoy picking on them.

[matthewAPM]

i dont think im faster. and y is it about how fast u go? its about having fun and enjoying the ride and meeting new people. trust me, ive seen race cars pulled off trailer that could kill my car on a mountains. i just like driving the roads and was wanting to get a group together to go.

[KeithAPM]

I might make it in either my 318i or my 325i depending on what's running at the moment.

[green91]

Thats my sentiment even after living here for years, its just thats usually the mentality of most newer groups that go up.

[matthewAPM]

ur on

[IndianStig]

I just got back from Blood Mountain about 3 hours ago, let me tell you Matt. Its the perfect time to go! No snow, looks like it rained there last night but the roads are awesome right now, chilling at the outdoor shop at the top is fun too in this weather.

Count me in on this one, me and and another RSX (yoshidoshi12 on IA).

[matthewAPM]

hell yeah man. im so ready to go. if u could do it NOW i would. il put u on the list. u got pics of the run?

[matthewAPM]

BannanaFTW, was there a lot of cars? and was there any salt on the roads?

[OnURleft]

yeah I've been in alot of cars with Victor Racers and they seem to be sick tires. Hoosier like for alot less. The Toyo's are great as well, and they use to offer discounts for CCA members but i'm not sure if thats still the case (but I think it is). I'll most likely be getting my liscense through N.A.S.A as i've done alot with them. Although I might jump in somewhere else if its that much cheaper. Although I want to get it properly as so many people are getting there liscense with there $$$ and they have no skill what so ever. There are so many people who can't even find an apex yet have there liscense haha. I plan to go to some instructor schools for road racing some time next year as well.I don't have my autox liscense per say because none of the clubs I run with require that...as its such a beginner style of racing that anyone can go out and learn but I do instruct it for The Richard Petty safe driving school for teens.. I'll check into that PDX with SCCA, but I have mixed feelings about scca we'll chat in person. I plan to do more events with them though...

As far as the list...
M5 Lite- 98 M3
MathewAPM-Civic Si
BannanaFTW-H22a Prelude
Kevin G-G35 COUPE(most likely)

Edit copy list and add your name if you are in fact attending

yeah dude. the SCCA classes are cheap. im an instructor at the SCCA PDX events. i dont think i could teach u much since u seem to know everything pretty well. an SCCA autox card is $60 and every autox event is $10 off. i would run in SM if i were u. from what i can tell u got the skill and SM is the class to do it in. everyone is "equal" and it comes down to talent. (Leadfoot can say a little about this too). im going to be in SSC and SSB and some other stuff next season full time (press release coming) and some other stuff i will tell u about on the mtn run. are u bringing the M3 on the run?

[matthewAPM]

[.EB.]

[OnURleft]

so the run is going to be tuesday the first. Correct? No longer sunday?

[matthewAPM]

i will let everyone know if we are going sunday or not. as of right now plan for sunday. i will post a weather report saturday morning, afternoon, and nite. and we will just have to see. but like M5 LITE said, if its raining saturday nite in the mountains, it will be tuesday january 1st. same place same time

[§treet_§peed]

LET ME GET A RIDE IN THE VETTE TIM!!! lol

[mushroom_toy]

well im a definite for sunday but a no go for tues.

[IndianStig]

BannanaFTW, was there a lot of cars? and was there any salt on the roads?

[IndianStig]

SUNDAY FTW MATT. **** TUESDAY, I'LL PROLLY BE IN THE HOSPITAL FOR ALKY POISONING OR SOMETHING.

[Dracc]

i's only got one

[redrumracer]

i's only got one


if matt has one can i borrow yours??

[wannab20hatch]

whats illegal about a trip to the mountains?

Nothing but the speed limit is like 35-45 on the mtn for the most part.I highly doubt anyone is gonna go that slow. And no matter what you say on 400 about taking it easy on the mtn, once you make that first right hander it all goes out the window. seen it to many times. Plus if its on a weekend cops will be everywhere. Why? becuase they know this time of year cars go up the mtn because for the most part its to cold for the bikes. Myself and chris (green91) speak from experience. We both live in dahlonega.

[matthewAPM]

sorry redrumracer, i am using Dracc's. THE EVENT IS SUNDAY! and M5 LITE. check the first page. i have a list there. the maybe's have it beside there name and the confirmed people have a thumbs up. BRING WALKIEs
