    Yeah, it will def help you see the best lines and what happens where. I always work station 10-12 at RA. I have been doing the motorcycle stuff for 4 yrs and have learned so much about the tracks I work. There are somethings you will notice working on a station that you would never realize driving or riding a bike. It could be a matter of moving just a couple of inches in any direction and it could change your times pretty well...with bikes though ofcourse

    Yeah, even with cars looking at the track from different prospectives will help out a lot. Especially at a turn like 7 you really see how elevated it is and wide it is.

    I've worked every turn my favorite is probably 11 or 7.

    I have worked all of them also. I hate 2,6, and 9. If I have an injury or if my knees are doing bad then I go to 8 or 9A. Are we the only Corner Marshals on IA? I work for FBF BTW.

    2 sucks, 6 I like because it's kind of chill and good close up to the cars/bikes lol. I worked AMA there a few times. I've only worked 9 twice, it's so boring lol. Usually the same guy works 9 for Road Atlanta because he's so familiar with the black flags and all.

    I just work for Road Atlanta, so any test days, track days, etc I work and AMA brings some Road Atlanta people in.

    I think there are a couple NASA guys on here who flag/work.

    Cool. I think FBF got a contract with AMA for RA now. They have been in the works for having a contract with AMA everywhere in the states and also working on having some of us train people for World SuperBike and a few car clubs want us to go where ever they go lol. Plus pay is going up this year.

    What are you all getting paid? Maybe I should look into it lol.

    I didn't even plan on working AMA this year, last year sucked, this year should be even worse. (racing wise)

    there is nothing wrong with either in the mtns... i have not issues in the mtn... i find the G doesnt want to swap ends as quick as the Z. very more neutral feel.

    Only thing I do after seeing a GTR is throw up and then jack off to a Pinto to get the ugly POS out of my head.

    you just crossed over 400 or got off 400 from 400north bound. right in from of the texaco and waho traffic light. you were in the far right lane... light turned green and you went for it, moved over at least one lane. oh and it wasnt around noon. it was around 430... i was in a friends trailblazer headed to firehouse on mansell. you definitely didnt see me. i saw a gt-r at the light and was like ohh a gt-r.. though it was black because of the light angle. then when the light turned green and you moved and started to pass i saw it was red.. and had bronze rims.. then i said i know that SOB what is he doing on this side of town?

    you didn't know i moved. i forgot. i live near jonesbridge and states bridge. and yeah, i hate that light. now that you are cawk-blawked by the poles up keeping that lane moving, people don't want to let you over so you don't have to make the obligatory right hand turn. this is where 0-60 on the GT-R comes into play.

    stock s2k's can get into the high 13's.

    i like the g35's but i still love the rawness of the s2k. If i want to go fast i want to feel that im going fast not like im sitting on clouds and could sleep through the experience

    Well, I will actually contribute to this thread b/c I like stay_up. Both cars a very nice. I feel the 2nd gen G35 is a much nicer vehicle than the S2k. The S2k is quicker in almost every aspect but you are limited on what you can do with it as a DD. The G35 can fit 4 people, more leg and head room and it's nowhere near as noisy. s2k owners, don't get all pissy, but the G35 has a bit more "class" to it and doesn't scream out "street racer" as much.

    hey man i think 4 cars is pretty decent. Most people only have one vehicle, but it doesn't matter how many cars I have.
    For a college student, i think I'm doing quite fine

    Having four cars doesn't mean a thing when they're $2000 cars.

    I'd rather have one nice car then four dump boxes.

    haha you don't even know the value of my cars

    97 prelude sh mint condition with 40k on motor..still 2k value?

    92 cx hatch ...with built (....) motor i guess that should go for 2k two

    2007 s2000..mint condition.... with hardtop.....umm that should go for 2k too

    94 2jz sc300....new white paint..fresh 2jz swap...umm.. that is definitely worth 2k too

    hey if you think my cars are crappy, i don't care hahaha
