Well **** a brick, I just noticed we have graduation this Saturday. Looks like the Mitty will have to wait until next year to be graced by the White One and the Silver One.

Have fun ya'll!

(And let me warn you, Holly is a ringer at darts. She'll wait till you've had a couple beers, play the dumb blond girl card and empty your wallet).

Ray

Does that mean that the silver and white ones would be ready for prime-time otherwise Ray? We'll need to send someone up to the house to drive the second car down for beers on Tuesday :)

I don't think Holly is "playing" the blonde card Ray. ROFL!

I wish I could come down but too much going on here. My cars on the stands as we speak for some brake maintenance and I have to do brakes and bushings on my wifes BMW as well. I'm not even sure I can make it to OGTA this month come to think of it. I may have to wait and come down in June with Stu.

Make sure theres lots of pictures taken.

OK, Crit sees through the smoke screen, neither the White One nor the Silver One will be down off the blocks this weekend. I might even miss my first OGTA meeting if they don't start behaving themselves.

But wait till next year! And I'll be practicing my darts too!

I was wondering about the progress on the cars. Now I don't have a 7 to drive on the track. I guess you didn't want me putting my magic on them.

I was about to suggest that you just come out to the Mitty on Sunday. AND you still can hitch a ride with someone and come out on Sunday to not miss the 4-rotor racecars. This is a rare opportunity Ray.

And we will not accept you missing the OGTA meeting. What do we have to do come and pick you up? The wife will let you drive the protege, won't she?

What's all this talk about darts?

Looks like we may have to deal with some rain tomorrow afternoon. I am bringing a canopy we can set up, if we have room. It is more for sun than for rain, but we'll have it if we want it.

And, don't worry about Ray missing OGTA. I will drive out to Jefferson and get him, if need be.

Hmm, how fast do they let you go on the parade laps, anyway?

I'm taking methadone shots to combat the rotary withdrawal, it ain't pretty. And I'm not sure watching other rotaries race around the track while mine are sitting in the driveway will help the situation. I think I'd better sit this one out and get those cars back on the road.

Holly, the darts are about the Mitty. Apparently the Mitty has it's roots in British motor car racing, MGs and stuff like that. Brits like to hang out at the pub, drink guinness and shot darts. Almost makes me wish I still had my MGB.

And do you really think I could show up at OGTA in an MP5? After harassing you about driving your M3 all the time?

With any luck this weekend I'll have the Silver One ready to go so Mike doesn't have to come pick me up.

Thanks guys and have a little extra fun for me tomorrow!

I have to fix Ray's quote:

I went up the Road Atlanta late this afternoon. We should meet at the Wendy's at Exit 129 off of I-85N. We will leave at 8:30AM to get up to Road Atlanta and park in the MAZDA corral. For those who know Road Atlanta the corral is just across the Suzuki bridge and the 1st corral to the left. There is a Japanese flag there. The MAZDA racecars are just down the hill at the beginning of the front straight, in the pro pits. I'm thinking we can all go down to the pits and watch Jim drive back in with the 792P tomorrow around 10:30 or 11AM.

When you purchase your ticket to get in, get an infield pass to be able to drive your car in and do the parade laps.

See you at the Mitty Sunday
 

Let's get some folks together for another set of touring laps - I did not think they were offering these this year. Where will I find everyone Sunday?? At Suzuki bridge 10a/b?

GTUAGAIN 89 GTU BLK/BLK 33,500 miles now. RB frt/rears with 5 way adjustables now and toe eliminator. I love my black beauty (not her name!)

Holly I want that Rotor watch!! Any one have a clean example please bring it if you will part with it for a reasonable cost.

Regards, .... Alan :lol:

Hey Holly!
 

We'll be there on Saturday, but maybe not at 8:30...

See ya there,
Troy

Hi Alan and Troy. I'm glad you guys are coming out. I know that Darthrotary and R1Chard have already purchased touring laps. The 8:30AM time is to meet on Saturday morning. I figure by Sunday people will know their way in. If you are only coming on Sunday we can pick a time again. Alan, I will trade you my rotary watch for your GTU :)

There's no way in hell I'll be able to get there... besides the fact it's raining like a mofo, I don't have the transmission down yet, and I might have to get the flywheel machined, plus I've got a lot of other stuff to do on the car (oil change, new engine mounts, etc).

Touring laps 2morrow?? Let's do it!
 

Holly/All let's represent the gas guzzlin piston-less wonders!! - Where should I look for you??

Regards,

C.Ludwig, EXP1787, and I came down from Louisville for the weekend. I took several pics but won't get them online til I get back home. Greg, it was great to meet you. I'm glad to know the '84 SE went to a good home.

How many of you guys were there? I walked around both sides of the track and didn't see much of a turnout of Saturday. I didn't have a chance to walk around on Sunday because I was at Mitty for work. Saw two NA FCs, one black? FD, and a few rotary race cars.

Well, all in all, the overall weather was nice. You guys live in a beautiful area. Everything is green, although it was killing my allergies. And Road Atlanta is an awesome track.

See you guys next year!

- Kevin

P.S. I was there with the HGP Formula1 cars (red 1979 Ensign N179 MN10 driven by Bud Moeller).

Awsome event everyone!! Great to meet all of you. Everyone is really nice. We had fun doing the touring laps and trying to represent the 7!:D We were in the Viper Yellow FC(n/a) We followed Richard(?) in his 93 red R1. And was followed by Alan is his rediculously clean FC GTU!! Apparently we almost burned off the factory paint on his bumper with our flamage!!:D j/k..

Next year the FD and FC will be there.!! Now, the summer just needs to rip by so we can get back for the Pettit.

Good fun, saee you all again soon.

Dave and Elizabeth

If anyone who was on track did not already get your photo's that were taken,..do it. It is pretty cheap and a great memory of a great event!! Plus you can see all the hot exhaust vapor distortion behind us when heading up thru turn 1!! Awsome,. wait did i say that already!!. And do I even need to say anything about the 2, 3 and 4 rotor cars out there!!still drooling

WOW between Saturday and Sunday everyone, except maybe one, that said they were going made it out. Plus we saw a few other 7s we did not recognize. They were from GA, one in Union County and one in Fulton County, both of those were FDs. The one from Union County GA was a Petit TKT 3-rotor. Nice car. The other one from Fulton County was a dark blue. Anyone meet these people, or are they on this forum?

I was nice to meet Dave and Elizabeth, glad you guys love the track. Nice to see some old faces and meet the new ones.

I wish more 4-rotors would have made it around the track.

pictures, now!

Yeah, where's the pics??

I took 304 pics. Give me some time today and i will sort thru for the good ones. There not the greatest but they give you an idea of what went on.
