Haha I've seen him complain about it on facebook. I've never met him, but I've seen him post on DriftPa and stuff. But that's pretty rad.

^ **** really was dead on......AGREED! funny though.. I started in BMX.. my senior project in high school was Building my bicycle from the ground up. I went all out.. Laced the wheels, put the whole thing together step by step and then rode the **** out of it for 5 years till it was stolen. Then I moved to cars..and the first time I saw a car whip into a long bender sideways... I remember.. I got chills. But they're right.. it truly is the dumbest **** you could do to a car lol All my money goes into it hahaha

Well it lasted about 15hr of driving and 2 drift events b4 It ripped off a rear clipping cone also helped persuade it. I drug it behinde me for 2 laps not knowing it had ripped off one side. My little brother layes Carbon so I might send it to him or i might just rivet a bunch of metal on it and have it throw sparks we'll see.




getting ready for NO STAR BASH

Napa "green box" pads hopefully heat up fast for locking action, RS Engineering fuel tank baffel so I dont have to run a full tank and deal with fuel slosh (also stay on track longer without refueling), and a nice new Turbo Blanket to help keep heat down in the bay.

Have him lay down a few layers of kevlar or carbon/kevlar weave over the top of it so you can drag it around some more and not have it crack on you again. It's really not that much more expensive or hard to do and you can get the kevlar in what ever color you want. Actually, it's some times cheaper for the carbon kevlar weave compared to just carbon twill depending on who you buy it from.

Aight alittle No Star Bash 2012 friday,saturday



just a few things that I packed for the 8hr drive and weekend in Shawano, WI



I dont trailer to often but after what happen in Nashville(last season) anything over 5hrs its going on a trailer.



Bumper to bumper in Chicago on the way to RotoBros



Get to Rotos and Ilia's axel is getting ready to explod so there is a bit of a delay. Derek King falls asleep (in the driveway like a true scumbag) from 2 days straight of no sleep NOT getting his car ready but getting real close like a total ****. DEREK KING U ******* SUCK AT CARS <3



Get to US Air (Shawono Cult Town) at 3am and decide we dont want to take our tents down during the day (if you camped on the track) so we post up on this elavated deck. Check the Hammock behind the tents and also the trailer ramp bridge over the fence. For 3am this was all put together surprisingly well. By the end of the weekend this was deemed Castle Breaking. Also nobody fell off the bridge the whole weekend which is pretty amazing considering the state that people were in each night.



So Saturday started out on the Intermediate course getting warmed up and using a few haybails for rear clips



I headed over to the Advanced course for some solo practice/light tandem. Ive wanted to drive this layout for years. I'd been to US Air once before but had a broken car at the time. WATCH IN HD





The Elevation changes along with a tight 2nd gear track was something very new for me. Also having a ebrake that STILL wasn't working very well made it alittle tuff.



A TON of rain turned the track into a ice rink and people were skating off everywhere. Saturday driving ended in with alot of rainy tandem and the day was cut short before we tore up the grass to bad.

After 30mins of almost blowing my face off with brake fluid Dustin decideds to tell me he had a Cheetah but it was raining to hard for him to go get it. LMAO FU Duster524

video with fire http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151757602030623



So Saturday night we put dry clothes on and enjoy the festivities at the track. One of the Chicago/Nashville (i cant remember) guys decides its a good idea to go to the Whitetail Gentlemen's Club so we pack 14 people in a dodge caravan. This was indescribably bad. Breaking 3 deep in the hatch area.

No Star Bash 2012 sunday, monday

We got alittle bit of a late start on sunday but went over to the Advanced course and started driving tandem.



A few solo runs to start the day. @.32 @5.20spin @13.58


Grainy but good OEfilms (both days)

http://vimeo.com/43080385

Sunday was alot of Tandem and I was leading a 6 or 8 car train and spun on the corkskrew like a noob and Keith with the blue Cressida smashed into the front of me. Totally my fault. So after alot of driving flying off course and crashing my aero was looking alittle rough LOL



Monday we all headed to my buddies lake house back in Indiana and spent the day at the sand bar scheming.




Good times with good friends
