Nice car. Bet it was fun

MaczPayne 07-14-08 03:02 PM

I paid 150 for the whole day, the weekend was 300 bux.

Then I used up 2 1/2 tanks of gas. And I got pulled over for speeding on the way back.

I'm gonna need time to recover.

Damn right! haha

I had a tiny oil leak, probably from the uncapped pcv, but it didn't bother me too much. Water temps never peaked 105 C, and I think I was ok with oil temps as well, since I'm using synthetic and the cooler gets full exposure. Brakes were good, the tranny didn't complain too much. Damn it was fun.

Did you happen get pulled over on the 405 heading south, kinda near the 101? I remember seeing a black 2nd gen on the side of the road.

Anyways, nice pictures man, did you purchase those from the Redline photographer or what?

MaczPayne 07-15-08 12:35 PM

Yeah, I had to purchase them, since this was my first time at Buttonwillow.

I got pulled near the track, on the 5.

Yo, I gotta attend a track day soon man. Those photos look clean, especially the one with the miata and other cars behind you. How hot was it out there?

MaczPayne 07-16-08 02:57 PM

Wasn't too hot that day, actually. About 89-90. I just drank alot of water, and had my ez-up haha.
