who ran the track day?
|
Great pics and video's. Thanks for sharing guys.
I love reading these threads with FD's at the track. |
He was trying to dig out of that corner hard I bet. A bunch of powerful cars about to run him down.
Scrub's car look a lot like the Scoot 4-rotor, I think. Coincidence or bad eyesight? |

You cant deny the wheels, hood, bumper cover, and color are similar.

|
For some crazy reason, I think that the Scoot car........... has a Scoot kit :D

http://www.tamondesign.com/product/g...1&category=3:0 But enough about the Scoot car, that thing's a piece of crap next to DannyMac & Dr. Rich's rides! :) :) |
Nothing like a $30k body kit. Makes the fortune kit look like a turd.
|
BTW, how long do a set of Neovas last at track days? (or, how many track days and street miles do they last)

Rich looked like a blast! After our phone conversation awhile back, I contemplated saying fuck it and going. Then I found out I had to take my mom to the airport that day and on top of it, I got sick :/ Next time I hope!
|

lol, watch the video....there's a bit of fire there....If I had moved up the track a bit where he was breaking I probably would have caught some. Give me some credit I was trying to do photography and attend the track day haha
|
Nice job Rich the car looks pretty nice in those shots as well as the video.

These pics are making me jealous.
Anyone know what camera was used for the stills? |

Rich and Dan... Two wild and crazy guys. Great vids, but you need better cameras. And, you're right, that's a nice track. After DGRR I'd really like to join you guys for a few sessions. Smooth and easy track. Non of that carousel stuff like Summit.

Looks like a great season start for you guys. Ive seen a few people "apon out" in that same spot at thunderbolt
|
Great pics, great video's and greats runs from what I saw. Glad to see you both out enjoying your cars.

Btw guys, I didn't post this before..... but my new OS Giken-stuffed stock trans was giving me issues from the get-go.
Second session, as soon as the trans got hot--- imagine, you're flying down a short straight in 3rd gear, right foot to the floor, staying on line and anticipating the braking zone, some Porsche track car on your tail....... and at about 6000 rpm, you hear a faint 'pop,' and you're bouncing off the rev limiter. Yup, the shifter just moved into neutral. On a track like Thunderbolt at NJMSP, you kinda need 3rd gear, and in a rotary, you need all of it. Anyway, I still managed to drive around it, short shifting at 5500 and using 4th gear more than i wanted to. Still laid a hurting down on 95% of the cars out there :D The trans came out the day after the event, and the day after that it was at the trans shop to be torn down. It's possible I provided an inop trans, as it was a spare we had sitting on the shelf from the Gotham days. |

That definitely will keep the cars with nice paint off your rear bumper ;)
