Its in the infield by turns 4 & 5. I try to get the spot under the big tree nearest to the track there
but if that fails theres lots of room behind it as well. We'll all go there after the breakfast.

 

That would be Camp Tim.

If there's any DeLorean's there like last year we'll kick there butts.









See you dudes at breakfast.

 

Except that is turn 3...

I am trying to drag my Dad along to the Mitty. He has never been to Road Atlanta before. NA$CRAP fan...

 

Once again, who all is camping? And is anybody bringing a grill?

 

 

Mitty updates:

The Iron Butt award this time went to a new guy up from Tampa, name's Andy, in a beautiful Maya Gold 83 GSL:







Here's another new guy who inherited a fantastic silver ported 83 GSL from his dad who bought it new, name's Ryan. Nice dad. He's an engineer:





We had a ton of fun, made all the better by Tim's Oatmeal home brew, damn that **** is good:















Next year I'm bringing a tent and my wife and staying for the weekend.

 

I'll believe it when I see it Ray. You won't camp. haha. Great pics! I will be posting mine soon. Had a great time at the race. It was good to meet those 2 new guys and hang out with Tim. Hadn't hung out with him much before. Cool guy.

 

First Tuesday of the month already. Who is going to make it out to Twisted Tavern tonight? I don't think Ray will make it, since he showed up at the Mitty on Saturday. Ray, I think Jeremy has your chairs and cooler that you left at Road Atlanta.

 

Yep, im planning on bringing out the deuce tonight since people missed it at the mitty. Ill bring Rays chairs and cooler and if he shows he can get them.

 

I'll be there, as usual, but without the camera this time (forgot it at home) so someone else (Holly?) is responsible for the pics.

Thanks Jeremy for taking care of that stuff for me!

See y'all there.

 

5-1-12 12A count

1 Old School = 2 12A's (Jeremy)
3 FB's = 3 12A's (Ryan, Ray, Greg (the younger))
1 FC = .75 12A's (Kristy)
1 FD = .333 12A's (Rodney)
3 FE's - .375 12A's (Tommy, Holly, Max)

6 Boingers = 0 12A's (Crit, Collin, Billy, Gene, Michelle, Lee)

Total 12A count = 6.458

 

This being 2012 and our 12A rating system is now 5 years old, I would like to propose some new 12A Equivalence Guidelines:

Properly Carbed FBs = 1.0 12A
SEs = 1.0 12A (experimental 12A)
SAs = 1.5 12As
Old Schools = 2.0 12As
Fuel Injected Rotaries = 0.5 12As
Boingers = 0.1 12As

We can add 0.25 12A Bonus Points for special examples, as we have for the PrePro.

I'd also nominate Robert's car for this honor and any other SA that crosses state lines to get to an OGTA meeting.

Maybe even some REPUs would qualify if they ever showed up.

This would simplify the math and reward the Wankel Wannabe's for at least showing up.

Whadaya Think?

 

Sure, why not. I'll second the motion. But, everyone just got used to the points system, so Ray, you will be responsible for the count each month.

 

looks like i'd fall into the ".25 point for being special".lol

 

 

Whats "properly carbed" mean? Or should this read "Ray approved carbed FBs = 1.0 12A"?

I'm just glad my 7 isn't an FB. Mike watchout, the carb police are on to you.

 

"Properly carbed" is just a reference system: Nikki>Weber>Holly>Del Horto, the standard system we've worked out over the years.

OK, it's official, we now have a new 12A Equivalence System:

Properly Carbed FBs = 1.0 12A
SEs = 1.0 12A (experimental 12A)
SAs = 1.5 12As
Old Schools = 2.0 12As
Fuel Injected Rotaries = 0.5 12As
Boingers = 0.1 12As

0.25 12A Bonus Points for special examples (eg, the PrePro, Robert's White Wonder, Michael's Old School FB, etc.)

 

Ray needs a spelling lesson on his carburetors.
DeLLorto
Holley

Its funny how he knows how to spell Nikki and Weber

 

Correction

Weber>Dellorto>Nikki>Holley

 

Webers are good, but Nikkis are better.

How 'bout we try this:

Nikki>Weber>Del Horto>Holley

Here you go, Ray. How many points would this net? It's carbed... http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/2999101957.html

 

Ugh. What not to do to your FB. Everything is wrong with it. Really wrong.

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/2999101957.html

That one would be -2.0 12A's for sure. Only good news is that it would have to park with the boingers if it showed up at an OGTA meeting.

Where you bin Brett?

 

hey guys, i got pulled over, cuffed and sat in the back of a police car last night for wreckless driving, and two lane change violations last night... and almost went back to jail. so i need to get this rx7 sold, cause i cant afford to go back to jail.

$1500 OBO, 1985 gsl-se, w/ weber powered 12a swap. call or text me anytime, thanks! -Carlton

770 557 seven six eight six.

 

wonder what he'd take minus engine and tranny.

i used to hot rod around town when i was younger too. u just gotta learn to drive more sensibly. and be aware cops r out there and be watching out for them.

 

I'm going to try to get out to the next meet, DGRR drained my rotary wallet. Thankfully, driving my new bike is saving me $0.135 every mile, so I should see you old folks on June 5th

Speaking of police encounters, I never got to mention the ticket I got after running the Tail of the Dragon with Holly... Crazy woman is hard to keep up with
