Nice meeting you guys.. Wish I would have hung around more to talk racing but I was staying with my dad about an hour away.

I still wish we could have a similar event as DGRR but have a track rented out for some fun! Maybe combined with Supras or ? To help with the numbers??
I like the way Phil is running this way better than the old Rotary Revolution (Indy event) events but was nice that they had a dragstrip and road course rented along with a dyno on hand.
Hated to here Turbotommy got a HUGE ticket along with Rich who went on to blow is tranny with his new enzo power!

Post up some pics as my *** didnt even bring a camera!

Hope everyone gets home safe.

I here ya Ernie. Its nice and close for me (left this morning and got home and had the grass cut by noon!) BUT I would rather be racing. I am going to see what Phil thinks and maybe he can post a thread on the DGRR sight and see if there is any interest in doing a Fall meet but at a track. I mean it just makes sense. Too many guys getting tickets and wrecks. Just play it safe and rent out Indy or similar speedplex. Guys who like to turn can do the road track and us "real" racers will try and go straight! Basically revamp Rotary Revolution but let Phil and his crew organize as they seem to have it together pretty good except for the tiny trophies.. I lost mine in my pocket!

It was nice meeting you guys and finally getting a chance to relax. We had a 13 hour drive back to NY but going back home was not that bad. I left at 6am and was home by 7pm. The guys that flew were smart.

Sk8- really clean car and nice meeting you finally. Costas, ship that bad boy from Cyprus.

Anthony

After we took a very leisurely drive, Roan was in a hurry to get out of my car! I don't understand we didn't even get into 4th!

Although Anthony seemed like he wanted out of the car more then Roan and I never was allowed to go to 3rd gear. I dunno maybe I needed a shower...

Nice meeting everyone this weekend, it was a great event as usual!

Ern, thanks for the ride... even if it was on the "whimpy boost setting"! Ha :-)

Roan, I'm sorry your car couldn't make it this year, I was looking forward to seeing a fellow high powered example of the Fd in its best color... maybe next.

Mike, put a filter on that Turbo so you don't need rebuild #6 prematurely!
