    Nice shots man!

    George, want me to try and throw together another track day? I'm thinking of Roebling Road myself. It's a LOT nicer track and is about the same cost.

    I cant remember exactly what happened then, but it sure is.

    There was some pretty inexperienced people there flying off the track...could have been that.

    I dunno, Matt with the black Sileighty w/ blue wheels was drifting in the rain during our track day. He managed to take it off the track and down into what must have been the track pond.

    If you do it, I'll sign up. This time I'll have some decent tires if it rains! Then I can school Nemesis around the track.

    Thread is up in the Whoreslounge. Just looking to get a headcount before I commit to anything. Non-refundable deposits are a b*tch so I'm gonna walk this one thru first.

    i know this wasnt the case in this instance, but at talladega one time an Evo spun out so hard (spun one way, then caught grip, and spun back the other way) that he tripped his G-sensor. The car thought it had been in an accident and it cut the fuel pump and wouldnt restart and was stuck in the middle of the track. that would and did result in a black flag.

    I had my brakes fade badly on the front straight. couldnt only get the car down to about 50-60 mph. i just went straight off the course, didnt even try to turn. there is a little ditch there, my bumper got f-ed up a little.
