nope, never went there....the course is tight...you can drift the hell out of it. After 30 minutes your arms will be jello because the tie rods are nylon (so they don't break if you hit something) but it's like stretching a bungee cord for a few hours.

**green91** · 06-09-2006, 07:20 PM

im down yo. the nissan is dying to get in the curves

the goldspeed track was tight and the karts went about 30 and they were propane powered instead of gas...they were a blast...

go-karts are fun as hell on a slick track...

**ShooterMcGavin** · 06-10-2006, 01:38 PM

yeah so what's the deal for tomorrow?

**HiPSI** · 06-10-2006, 02:47 PM

there's a bicycle race going through the mountains all weekend, i'd stay away.

**ShooterMcGavin** · 06-10-2006, 03:54 PM

^^^old news, that's why we were talkin about goin later on in the day?

I need to know before I go to sleep tonight so I know wither or not to wake up or not...

**DinanM3atl** · 06-10-2006, 05:00 PM

everyone still in for meeting at the same time?

**~The_Duke~** · 06-10-2006, 06:43 PM

I couldnt care less...it takes me 5 mins to get there...and I need mountain from the store that is right next to the meeting place anyway...

**DinanM3atl** · 06-10-2006, 06:45 PM

jason where are you... we still on like donkey kong?

**ShooterMcGavin** · 06-10-2006, 07:57 PM

think that if we still meet up it should be later so as to avoid as much of the bike traffic as possible.

**slowrolla97** · 06-10-2006, 08:39 PM

Ok, so what is the plan? I am confused about all this. Are we meeting at the time posted, later, never? Whats going on!!!??!?!?! I wanna go up there

**ShooterMcGavin** · 06-10-2006, 08:41 PM

think jason is dropping the ball on this one

**Outphase** · 06-10-2006, 08:58 PM

Went to SEDA meet...and my brakes are faded as hell.. hopefully they'll last tomorrow.

**ShooterMcGavin** · 06-10-2006, 09:08 PM

we don't even know if there IS a tomorrow at this point...

**DinanM3atl** · 06-10-2006, 09:16 PM

better be
we should just gonna meet up at specified time...

**Outphase** · 06-10-2006, 09:19 PM

I want to go, but I am too tired to take 4 tires+wheels + spare up 3 flights of stairs. I have faded brakes, back right trailling arm is out of alignment, my clutch burned even more, brake/clutch fluid lining has another bubble in it (. I don't think I'm going. I don't want to risk damaging my car anymore... took a beating today in the 100*F heat.

**green91** · 06-10-2006, 09:31 PM

get that shit warrantied man. how on earth are you burning your clutch at 23k??

Dude just come, my suspension is all screwed up. I need new pads and rotors on the right side. Everytime I stop my whole shit vibrates. and my tires LOL booooy I could write a book about those. But I'm still going.

**~The_Duke~** · 06-10-2006, 10:20 PM

is there a plan?

**OvErMiNd** · 06-10-2006, 10:54 PM

Will we make a fast group and a slow group?

No offense, but can you FWDs take the route @ 60+?

**~The_Duke~** · 06-10-2006, 11:03 PM

I havent tried before...

**JennB** · 06-10-2006, 11:03 PM

It's not looking good.... oh well.. wish I could come up with something but I don't know my way around north GA at all.

And as for the last comment... heheheh... ever been in a MINI? I can keep up with anything. No, really.

**~The_Duke~** · 06-10-2006, 11:16 PM

I don't know who you are, but you shouldn't talk if you don't know how I drive.

**DinanM3atl** · 06-11-2006, 12:17 AM

sweet

**DinanM3atl** · 06-11-2006, 12:18 AM

it's ok, being an S2k owner he's stepping into dangerous territory...i know how loose they are and he's not going to make it back down unless his name is Alex Pfeiffer

**Outphase** · 06-11-2006, 12:22 AM

Like I said, I'd go, but I wouldn't enjoy it. It's pretty teasing when I have no brakes and I can't drive fast. I don't think it's going to be any cooler (temperature wise) tomorrow either. Today was blazing hot and my brakes assed out in 2 laps of hard driving. I don't want to risk anyone's lives tomorrow, so I am sitting out, as dramatic as this sounds.

**DinanM3atl** · 06-11-2006, 12:24 AM

hehehe
just need some good rotors

OEM 13in front and rear!!!
ill be good to go

sorry you wont make it out

**Outphase** · 06-11-2006, 12:30 AM

I ordered my brakes, brake lines, brake pads, ages ago...and still not here. I'm about to go ghetto on this website.
