Chris and I are headed out to Pacific Raceways to see what we can do on Wednesday, August 15. Would love to see some of you out there too.

I'd like to issue a challenge to a certain gal on here. We can call it "The battle of the black beasts" or "Swedish Safety vs. German Engineering". So Jenny, bring out that TC 850 wagon and race me in my 540. It'll be a really close race and lots of fun!!

 

oooooooooooooo

ill make sure of it!

What time?

 

Gates open up at 4:00 pm, if you get there around 4 you should be able to squeeze in about 4 runs before it gets busy.
Decisions? Do I support the wife or the old Turbo Brick, I am a man torn.

 

ill probably go i dont think i will go tomorrow i decided

 

hahah... i know chris.... i have to bump her outta the drivers seat occasionally... Well.... jen says shes really interested in going, but she gets off work at 6 in Federal Way... i could be off whenever, seeing as i havent made the schedule yet....

 

She could get over to the track by 6:30 and still get a few in.

 

It looks like the Volvo/BMW challenge is on. Yippee!! anyone else coming, chris will be there in the 7.

 

i should be there in my fd. want to see if i can get a little better

 

Cool, it will be good to see you. You'll be faster than me for sure. Did you make it out to Bremerton yesterday? We left right after our race since we did an early am work assignment. If so, hope you had fun. it was a good course for fast cars.

M

 

No i didnt make it out I had a late night saturday and I couldnt get my girlfriend up to go so i just said screw it. How did you do.

 

Hey fellow Bonney Laker.... we still havent met! i guess i may see you on wednesday!

 

It was a fun day. Not sure how our times stacked up since we ran in the cold morning, but we took 3rd and 4th in street tire class. Nice, fast course, good for big cars.

 

yeah im getting off work early so i can go ill see you there.

 

Wow all these sports cars, and only a handful of people interested in racing, What gives?

 

hahaha... i was toying with bringing MY FC... but hey... that would be a slow race.... yawn...

." and the black FC does a 1/4 mile in 27 seconds! "

And im broke... cause i spent all my money on the honeymoon.. drained my savings account... but NO regrets... it was a BLAST!

 

Well you all know my situation... Otherwise I would have skipped out on work and showed you all what my wife can do

 

hahahahahahahaha............

i love it

 

well that was a big waste of time im sorry I left withought saying goodbye but i was just so pissed off at my tranny i just could not shift into 3rd.

 

Zack I had the same problem... Back in the day prior to a few mods I have now I ran a 13.6 at 104 missing 3rd every run...

 

WOW! that was a blast!.... thanks again for the invite Chris and Michelle.... sorry we didnt get a chance to meet Zack... what was up with your tranny?

Well... the Brick aint slow! She put down a 14.88 at her best... that was with a .018 reaction time....

More peeps need to bring thier cars out.... slow or fast... its a good time to be had....

 

That's right Grae, it was fun. I am proud to say I was the slowest BMW there. Ran a 14.73 at 96.4 mph. I'm quite pleased with my run with the 0.000 RT too. We will probably go out again towards the end of september when it's a little cooler.

It was a quiet nite at Pacific and I got 14 runs in.

 

Dang!! I've never gotten more than 5 in.... EVER!! The one night I had a good chance to beat that number I got booted cuz I didn't have a helmet and I ran under 14.00

 

Zach, bummer about the shifting. I was having a really hard time getting it down my first few runs but finally got it figured out. It's strange, I drive the car everyday, but was having a hard time at the track, trying to shift too fast I think.

Here's some pics. I'd have some rx-7s but there weren't very many there.

My favorite




Aren't they cute

 

It just doesn't look right the newlyweds sitting on a Volvo... Not until I see little kids with them

 

hahah... you just want be called uncle timmy!

Yeah michelle ! awesome RT... whats with the women and the quick *** RT's..... jen was stomping out sub .05's all night! now time for the RIP kit! hhehehe....
