Well I missed the fun for the second year. My car is currently under the knife but I am definately going to make the trip down from NJ during this summer. I was just wondering if anyone is planning on going again before next year.

 

there are some talks of an unofficial Fall trip. but like i said, just talks, no one has brought anything together yet.

 

Since my FD broke (probably coolant seal) and the wife and I felt defeated, we are going back to Deal's Gap over the Memorial Day weekend. This time we will be drive our Evo since the wankel died on us. Anyone and EVERYONE is welcome to join. Please come. The more the merrier.

I am all of 30 minutes from the gap, so just let me know when anyone is planning on making the trip and I will try to be there.

 

I would love to go back but they banned me from coming there again. Seems when I left Sunday they were missing a curve and blamed it on me.... So now there's only 317 turns left.


Man I would so go back for another weekend in an instant if I could squeeze it in between work and other stuff going on right now. I'd even be into a drive up after work on a Saturday evening so I could play on it all day Sunday.

 

my friends and i are definately going back, we arent sure when though. we are waiting on my car to get ready and for his car to get ready. mine should be ready within a month or two and he is having to wait on the his engine for his protege, but theyve been BSing him since christmas. i will be going back before his car is ready, ill be accompanied by a mazdaspeed protege and a 3rd gen rx7. as soon as we decide when we are going ill post it in here and the SE section.

 

My car wasn't ready in time either, so I knwo how you feel, my DD is looking good now so one way or another I'd be in for the next event, if I can get away from work.....

 

You guys can join the RX8 guys in Sept. I'm thinking about doing that this year...

 

I went Thursday night after work

 

haha lmao

next time you try that crap, warn us.. i was wondering what happend to that last curve

 

I'll be back up there this month as soon as I get some more money together. When I get my "new" FB registered I'm planning on taking it for a (much slower) test run, too. I'll probably be in the TII next time though.

 

Phil u should def be their in sept. Then u don't have to lead the slow group hahahaha

 

LOL! What happened to the video from your car at the skyway?

 

I've been dreaming about a night run..

 

Man we thought about doing that Saturday night but we were just to tired to drive back out there after dinner and had begun with the festivities. I would love to see what it is like at night though. In fact I would love to see some pics and vids of some night time runs!!!

 

Its hard to see coming out of turns, especially left-handers because the pillar gets in the way too.

I may try and set my headlights all crazy to improve my vision of the road next time.

 

I used to have video of a night run but I dont know what I did with it. It was pretty much pitch blackness with some tail lights here and there. The 8s headlights are great at night. Very nice coverage of the road but still pretty dark around those really sharp turns. I missed my chance at a night run at DGRR... got to make sure to do multiple in september to make up for it

 

If you go up at night, WATCH OUT FOR DEER!

 

Mmmm doeburgers..

Ahh - deer - another good reason for the header dump.
They hear you comming, but are they smart enough to get out of the way?

 

im ready to go back how ru u doing sureshot..good to see ur name back on this site..how r things...hot in florida its just getting warm up here in indiana...larry here with the red 7 conv...i cant wait to get back down there...but it has to be with a lot of 7s to make it fun u know what i mean.....hello phil

 

I'm still going over Memorial day weekend. There will be two RED Evo VIII's there. Let me know.

 

Was it really a month ago?













Guess you could look at it this way. We've only got 11 months till the next one!!

 

BTW, I can't wait to go back again. It was worth every penny of brake dust and rubber while I was there!

 

I might just have to come cruise with you again... you think a stock S4 TII can stay with an EVO VIII?

 

I'll be their for brotherhood of the dragon in sep. U RRDI guys should make the trip but stay at Fontana with everyone else this time. It was a blast!!
