Here are some of the better shots I uploaded to my buddies webspace. I have to make each picture smaller so it's taking me awhile to get through all 239 pictures... My friend should have some good scans when he gets his film developed, Ill post them then. I have some decent videos of the event as well, picture quality isnt great but the sound is nice. :) Ill post them when I can find a host. On to the pictures, be patient, the webserver isnt the fastest.

The F40 with a Mazda 4-rotor car, I could hear the progress of this car around the

entire damn track. It was so freakin loud (sounded GOOD though)!

OMG my heart is pounding

:eyecrazy thats insane

is it normal for me to be sexually arroused?

Shit pants, brb.

I think the F40 is better than the F50.

As wierd as it feels, Im actually going to have to agree with you. :)

Great pics, Mike!!!

Man, that was fun. I hope to see you out there next year. As you could see, the novice group is pretty tame. You drive at your own pace with an instructor.

Can't wait to see some more pics!!

(Oh, I accidently left my sunroof open during that session. :eek: :eek: I realized when I pitted.)

red x's :(


Edit: Fixed :)

This was my event photo

Nice pic, Justin.

I was going to get my wallet ot buy one....then I heard them call for the White group...so I got back into the car. Besides, the photos were too rich for me. $45. :eek: It sux being poor. :(

That's a great pic!!! You look all casual, talking to the passenger.

"Yeah, so last week at work..."

Nice pic, Justin.

Yeah i wish i would have heard that -- my last session was a terrible one to end on :(.
The track was soaked and anytime i would even tap the throttle the rear tires would break loose. I got on it a few times going down the straight and i felt like i was dRiFtiNgzzzz the whole time :eek:

I was saying "Don't worry, 230 degrees is very low, normal oil temperature."
:eek:
:D

Mikey...thanks for the pics man, you really got some nice ones from some cool places on track :) ...good seeing you again, thanks for coming out!

terp...how's the car doing? still overheating?

The oil was only heating up on the track -- on the highway it was between 150 - 180 degrees... I'm really starting to think it may have something to do with the oil temp sending unit location..
I am going to call a buddy of mine who is a big mustang guy -- ask him what he thinks -- I mean -- the oil temp at worst was like 240 -- if i switch to synthetic it shouldn't really be bothered by temps like that (synthetic is good to like 400 degrees or something..)
But I'm pricing oil coolers now too .. :D

Some of them are shitty quality because I failed to realize that the digital zoom sucks.

Thanks for the pics guys, they are great!

Tom, nice meeting you. Tell your dad that I have about 10 DE's under my belt now and am ready to co-drive w/Bill next year!

Here's my picture of Andy flossing Sunir's car:

It was good meeting you guys. Too bad I didn't make it out the second day, the weather was great. When is the next one?

The oil temp in my M3 lives at 255 on the track.

Really? are you running synthetic?

terp...how's the car doing? still overheating?
I just talked to my mechanic -- he seems to think that it's not a problem to see 250 degree oil temps while on the track -- :)

He said his boss' cobra (with a big block 427) sometimes indicates oil temps around 300 degrees on the track!!
:eek:

nice pics i like that black acura! sharp

that black acura
POOR!

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun. I should have come to this on Sunday over the lame drift "event"

POOR!
and SLOW!

very true. i did seem to pass more than a few cars 10x the value of mine. pissed them off :)

That was funny, when Andy passed the Ferraris he'd scream "VTTTEECCCCC!" I was laughing my azz off!!! :laugh

We were saying in the car, that must make them feel like "damn, I spent all that money to get my azz kicked"

Ferraris are much more diffucult cars to drive fast than BMW sedans, or front engine front or rear drive cars...they are twitchy peaky cars with mid engine rear drive setups...I drove a 360 Challenge car at Summit last year and it was a handful, took a bit of getting used to whereas my M3 was a peice of cake to drive fast, the 360 was much harder to drive after 8/10ths. Some of these drivers were just learning also, perhaps new on track so their level of comfort/confidence may not have been too high...whereas I think Andy's and others (James, Jesse, Nick etc...) confidence levels have increased quite a bit looked like throughout the weekend.

Actually, I remember someone saying that about Ferraris. I remember seeing a qualifying vid of Jeff Segal in a 360 Challenge at RA and he was constantly working the steering wheel.

Jeff's a great example of this...we've talked about this quite a bit and his CMod M3 is much easier to push at or past the limit than the #28 Ferrari CH car they raced in Grand Am.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!! :rolleyes That might be true...but in my mind it was because of, "VVVVVVVVVVVVTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCC"

:D

j/k

I hear what you are saying. Like I said before, it's not the car that is fast...it's the driver. :)

Jeff's a great example of this...we've talked about this quite a bit and his CMod M3 is much easier to push at or past the limit than the #28 Ferrari CH car they raced in Grand Am.

Also, I imagine that the steering in those cars is a hell of a lot quicker than an M3, making the car almost darty and twitchy.

Hey, I saw your buddy John-the dude with the gutted E28 M5 and the 355 Challenge at the driver's meeting.

Andy and Greg-

You guys should get a magnetic decal made that says "VTEC! SHYT THAT'S FAST!" for the rear when you pass someone.

THAT would be funny

sure you can, what do you think some teams do to win important series races or championships :) ...drivers are always for hire!

I talking about dudes that buy certain cars and think they will become Shuey as a result.

Here is my favorite pic :devillook

Kinda hard to tell? Looks like a Meathead I think :dunno

Hey, I was there that day too. I was doing the BSR accident avoidance training program. :rolleyes

Mostly pretty boring stuff. I did hear the cars scream by every 20 seconds though, so it was pretty cool. I wasn't aware that Blue 360 was a CS. :eek:

oh that was me getting ready to hunt Jesse down......never happened though :(

BTW, that is Gary's (LandShark here on bf.c) E46 M3. Very nice car.

I didn't see him for a good part of the day. I think someone said he corded his tires.

Jess and Justin looking good as always!! Oh yeah and everyone else....i'll tag along next year maybe i'll get a couple wave bys..and maybe i'll get to ride in a real track car..oh Sunir..

Mike,

Would it be possible for you to burn me a CD of all the pics you took of all of the BF.COM people?? I really don't need the pics of the Ferrari's. I just want to see pics of us.

I think I could do that. :)

Thanks, Mikey52@work. :D

Heh, I was tired of unclicking sigs and images whenever I browsed at work. :)

:evil2

http://www.boomspeed.com/eviloatmeal/Ferrari04/Day2/f40g.jpg

Mikey, you do a fantastic job with pics man...you should take some and submit them to the Roundel, perhaps cover some races and submit them with Brian Morgan's coverage stories (he writes for both Roundel and Grassroots Motorsports)

just a thought :) ...keep up the great work!

He can start by selling Andy that burned CD for $75 like the photographer was doing there. :D

:evil2 My friend actually commented to me how he could do this (take pictures) for a living. It really was pretty fun, especially when you framed a car perfectly as it went screaming by. :cool

I wanted to get a photo of my car but they were too expensive. :(
