[Erron Spalsbury]

A little premature, but thought this would be a good time so everyone has time to prepare. No excuses!!haha. The next event is August 31st. Paul and I are planning a tuning day sometime this month too, but we shall see. Let me know who all wants to go play and we'll get you signed in!!

[Erron Spalsbury]

Sweet!! I will count you in, if we can get enough interested, we can have our own group run together. Could you imagine 20 dsm's on the track at the same time? OOOOOOO!!!!!

Erron

[sherrie91nt]

Well count me in too!!! Hopefully I will have the GSX done by then... :eek:

[Erron Spalsbury]

That's great Sherrie, see ya there! Now i'll start talking to Paul and get some track time! That makes 9 confirmed so far....who else? Hal? Erik? Bueller?

Erron S. (bringing lots of film)

[blazinmaniac]

i might come check it out, my car can't really handle it yet, only thing it's good for is some good ole highway races.

[OneSlowEclipse]

I'll go and watch this time... would love to run the car but I know its not ready for that type of thing. I'll just have to bum some rides off you guys!

[blazinmaniac]

i assume you need a helmet for a ride along, correct? another reason i won't be driving. haha im friggin poor

[Hal]

I'll plan on being there

[Erron Spalsbury]

That's awesome guys, we'll have a great turnout then. Yes, you need a helmut for ride alongs and driving. There are usually more than enough people to borrow one from too.

Erron S.:D

[blazinmaniac]

hell then i'll do my best to be there, with work and what not, i just ordered a new turbo today, so maybe i can spin my wheels around the track a bit.

[tekky]

what time you guys run out there? I work on wednesday's till 6... OHHHHHHH! thats august tho! Doh lmao DOH! Saturdays.... depending on the time I can make it prolly, my car *BETTER* friggin be running by then... I'd be willing to make a few laps, car willing, or atleast waste some money, gain some wait watching :P

[Erron Spalsbury]

Well lets see...if memory serves correctly...
Dave was a 1.27, first day on the track w/o suspension and tires mind you, and the old engine.

Mike Baker is a best of 1.24, destroying a tire, and w/o suspension and tires- highly modded 1G.

Paul Rask is a best of 1.22, full brakes and slicks, highly modded 2G.

Douge Hayne is a best of 1.22, full brakes and slicks, highly modded 1G.

Marcus Martinez is a best of 1.24, w/o suspension and tires, modded 1G.

My best is a 1.17, suspension and street tires- highly modded Stealth TT.

I can't remember the rest, feel free to chime in here fellas. There are lots of different cars out there, most turbo Miata's are 1.29+. The vipers are usually around 1.26 if their mostly stock. Mustangs from 1.22-1.27 depending on mods. It would seem that it's usually driver dependent and not really mods though. When Marcus and Mike hit 1.24's with factory suspension and average tires, they were REALLY hittin' it hard. Quite a heart pounder really... The first time on the track, expect around a 1.30. Ride around with a few different drivers and see where the "fast" line is and you'll improve quickly. It's nice to work on your car for a weekend and then come out and be 3-4 seconds faster than before, much more fun than fighting for tenth's. IMHO

[tekky]

lmao i was actually referring to 1pm 2 pm 3pm... etc :P

[Erron Spalsbury]

Erron S.

[tekky]

[Erron Spalsbury]

Keep me posted. As the event gets closer, i'll get a better head count too..

Erron S.

[tekky]

heh believe me... when my car is fixed *everyone* will know :P
ill be one happy mofo... car less for damn near if not more than 2 months... ill need a paycheck just for gas the first week its running again :/

[blazinmaniac]

ordering my clutch this week sometime so i should be a go, i got shit for tires and stock brakes and suspension, but i should have new injectors and a turbo. im still gonna need to borrow a helmet

[tekky]

Aye, I should have good tires by then too, and also need a helmet forgot about that... all I have with me here is a bike helmet :P doubt that would do *much* good in a car accident :P

all my ATV stuff is back in TX :/

[Erron Spalsbury]

Ladies and gentlemen. We are on for the 31st of August. If you plan on attending, you must contact Paul Priggie to register, he is the event organizer. Again, $60 gets you all day. I'll be ready to rock as well as the other dsm guys that committed to coming. I'll also be fully caged by then too. (evil grin)

COME GET SOME!!!!

Erron S.

[OneSlowEclipse]

dumb question..... We don't need to contact him if we are just going to watch right??

[Erron Spalsbury]

For spectators, just show up. No registration, or gate fee. Totally free to watch and ride!!

Erron S.

[tekky]

car still aint up, I've decided to just do another engine swap, less work and roughly the same $$$ plus I'm looking at the EVO engines.. supposedly a direct bolt in due to being based off the 2G block... but *shrug* If things go well I'll have a motor by then... also think I just got me DSMlink today... still waiting on final reply back :D wont be much use for awhile but *shrug* its a step in the right direction as far as I'm concerned! :D

Maybe I can bum a ride out there and atleast watch or do a ride along... *shrug*

Latez

[Erron Spalsbury]

Ok guys and gals, it's almost time. So far, Mike, Shawn, Keith T., Jason, Marcus, and myself are confirmed. Anyone else want to come out to play?

Erron S.

[talonawdcars]

I missed this one. When's the next?

Alan.
'95 TSI AWD GT-4 (Porsche Beater)

[Erron Spalsbury]

The next session is on the 22nd of this month. The same day as the idrc event. I'll definatly NOT be at bandimere, but out road racing. It'll cost you $60 for all day and free reign of the track. If you want to go for sure, let me know and i'll have you call Paul and register. Not even any tech inspection out there. They believe, "if you're willing to risk your own life, there is no point in me looking at your car..." haha! I love this track!

Erron S.:cool:

[talonawdcars]

I really want to come out and see the track and try it but I am already registered for IDRC on the 22nd. Is there another date?

[Erron Spalsbury]

Not this year...
