The results are in..........and I am disappointed to announce them.

#1 is JessIe
#2 is Mikey52 (:rolleyes )
#3 Me. :(

As much as it pains me to say this, I had to point Mikey by me. :( :chix However, Mikey needs a turbo, AWD, Toyo RA1's, Brembo brake kit with Carbotech pads, and lighter wheels. With all that taken into consideration, I am the true winner!!:eek: *making excuses to feel better about myself*

Anyway, what a great day!! Great seeing JessIe, Wong, Mikey, and a few new people we met today.:buttrock :redspot

Now I have to change my pads and axle. :(

Jesse failed to mention I passed him. :devillook

Man that was a fun session... I shoulda accidentally tan in A group earlier!

Eric, Mike and I saw you and JessIe coming out of turn one from the skidpad. We saw you gaining on him, then you passed him, then he was ahead. Looked like you guys were having fun!!

We got back as you were leaving. JessIe was already gone.

THAT's where you guys went... we were like.. where the hell are those guys!

We were at the skidpad but I had a clear view of people coming out of turn 1.

The instructors took Mikey and me for rides on the skidpad. Then Mikey drifted around it for some time.

It was a strategic point by, I'm setting you up for later this season :eek:

That was fun, I had that last session. We were wondering where you two gheys went, Eric said something about you and MiCkey dissapearing into a port-apotty together :dunno Good seeing you Eric, and I'll see you two rice boyzzzz next weekend.

Then Mikey drifted around it for some time.:eek: You say DRIFT?



:stickoutt

sounds like you all had some fun. So when is the next round for the HPDE championship?

:eek: You say DRIFT?



:stickoutt

Yeah! With that BWM M Power!

:eek: You say DRIFT?

Bill,

I agree. I read on the Internet that drifting is dumb. However, Mikey seems to like it. :dunno Besides, are you surprised this guy likes drifting?:confused :rolleyes

The sad part is that Mikey didn't even know I was taking his picture. This is how he stands in front of his car during his off-track time. :rolleyes

:lol Anymore pics?

:lol Anymore pics?

I have one pic of my racecar, and another of my 240SX brother who came out. Between the track time and the classroom time, I wasn't able to snap any pics. I didn't think you wanted pics of your car. I figured you owning it was bad enough. :dunno

I'll get more this weekend.

Oh, I have your tire pressure guage. I will bring it with me to this weekend's race.

Andy, you said that you were going to frame that picture for my private collection! :mad The crackers in my hand are a nice touch.

I had an awesome time yesterday. it was good seeing everyone (except Andy) again. The skidpad was much more fun than I thought it would be. I am happy to report that you can get the Evo to do a mAd dRiFt, y0!! :alright

I saw you flash me the peace sign when you were riding with the dude in the E36 sedan. :laugh

I wonder if those other two dudes will post. One of them said after he saw the "James died" thread, he stopped coming to BF.C. :(

I just said I quit taking it seriously. You guys are a bunch a crackers, and some fruit loops!

Nice meeting you guys though! Hope to see ya out there again.

Andy, how's your car after you crashed it, and almost hit the corner worker in the tower at turn 5?

Almost hit the corner worker? I guess you didn't hear what happened. I'm too shooked to talk about it. :(

I didn't think it was my place to say anything about it :(

Word on CR was that they were cursing the pesky BMW's. They had the two FI Mustangs, the Acura TL, Black STi, and one of the Vettes. Bwuahahaha...

Yeah, that's him. He was pretty quick out there.

I tried to find you. There was only one NSX. I asked the owner. Obviously, it wasn't you. Were you there?

Mikey and I are going to Summit Point tomorrow (Friday) and Sat. JessIe is joining us on Sat. This is the Porsche Club's DE.

We all should start planning a trip to VIR again. Maybe we can run with the Audi Club? :dunno

Any more info on this? Price for late registration? Requirements? If only I wasn't so poor.

CR?

Was there a yellow Stang in their group? I went into the advanced group at the end of the day and this yellow Stang thought he was the shits (edit: flying down the straights)... so I let him by and me and Jesse totally screwed his concentration.. HAHAHAH

Further Edit: if you are reading this from another forum.. you must understand the intricacies of the MARB before linking and or assuming things ;)

I believe they had 2 Mustangs in the CR group. One was white and the other yellow. I think the yellow one was supercharged. I am almost positive this is the one you let by.

flying down the straights

Because i could . (insert smilie )

Honestly, i will always do that. Final speed is an indicative of the last turn.

I waved you by Eric, so we could play. He kinda tagged along, until he saw we were moving at a good clip and he pointed both of us by.

My Hawk HP+ brake pads should be here today!! I can finally late brake into turn one and go down the chute faster.:buttrock

No more flashing the high beams at me!!:nono :mad

I am sure I could've gotten better, but I needed them fast. Based on my experience with Axxis Ultimates, I think the HP+ should be fine, right?

What would you have recommended? The only other pad that I know of are the Carbotechs. :dunno

Andy, if you weren't fading Ultimates, HP+ will be fine for you. If you get faster, contact Eric and get some track pads. IIRC it takes 20 mins to change pads on your car.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I am not as hard on my brakes as most people. I only faded them once. Hell, I hardly floor my car out there. :laugh

Yeah, changing the brake pads are easy.

JessIe, would you mind if I ride with you on Sat. for a session? I am trying to get a better idea how the faster drivers enter corners and the hard braking zones.

you should be ok with the HP+, I have used them for the past 2 years because I could still use them on the street and hill climbs. For future track only suff I will be getting some carbo's because I was getting some fade the last time down at Summit.

No problem as long as they allow riders. I promise I'll keep it off the grass this time :eek:

Yeah, even though it was a little shocking, and fun, let's just stay on the pavement. ;)

I also want to ride with a driver who heel-toes but none of you bytcheZ do that. :(

You guys are going to summit tomorrow?
Come to CMP next weekend! It's not much further than VIR.

We should also plan something at VIR -- anyone know of anything coming up?

Mazda Drivers is still open, Grand East, June 16th or something

I will be there with my 3500lbs straight axle commuter. Flying down the straights as always, fast enough to beat some nice handling cars. *smile*

i will be out there sooner or later. i am having trouble finding the "right" buyer for my car. oh...they are the ones with money

I'll be there on Saturday in the black group. We'll roll on track together and have some fun if you would like?

I just installed the Hawk pads. Not to sound like a ricer or anything, but these pads stop the car MUCH better than the Ultimates ever did. Are they supposed to be that different?:confused :eek:

I can't wait to try them out at Summit Point tomorrow...........alone. :(

No, you shouldn't feel the difference on the street. Have you noticed the "noise" yet? The only downfall w/them as street pads is they are quite loud IMO.

Edit: I almost forgot: RICER!

No noise just yet. I only drove the car to bed them. I did a few hard stops.

Definitely !!! You know my car, PLEASE if you see me say Hi.

hmm... wait... black group? I guess i quoted the wrong part of the post :) .. i was talking about VIR.

So far, a group of us (CR) are doing MazdaDrivers (VIR June). I've ran that course once, and its a blast.!!!! I loved full course, but the long straight gets a little old after a while.

First session was good. The brakes feel A LOT better!!!

I was nervous being in the Intermediate group. I got more point bys than I expected!

Nice cool weather too. VTEC spools up a little quicker. :D

Hey, call me tonight and tell me what the schedule is please. I don't know what time I have to be there in the morning.

Well it sounds like my alternator is toast. Bad news is it cant be fixed until Monday so Im done for the weekend. :(

I may try to make it up tomorrow for a bit just to watch.

why not, can't get the part?

Hey, call me tonight and tell me what the schedule is please. I don't know what time I have to be there in the morning.

Ok, I will get the details and call you.

I am almost certain you will need to be here for 8:00am tech. I'll make sure.

Mikey, that sux, man! :( Perfect timing, huh? :(

An E36 M3, a Boxster, and a Lexus SC300 went off today. The E36 was the worst. Not too bad damage though.

why not, can't get the part?

Have to order it, plus the tech at the shop I towed it to is off until Monday. :az

That sucks, maybe we'll see you tomorrow anyway.

Man, what an amazing day. I was VERY pleased with the way my car felt!!:buttrock Brakes felt AWESOME, heel-toeing was much smoother than it was at the Corvette Club's DE, and the car felt very neutral and predictable.

For some reason a few people didn't want to point me by even though I was on their bumper. Two cars in particular; 350Z and a 944 Turbo. :dunno. EVERY session I had to force my way by them. They would point the Porsches by, but when I approached, they would hold off on the point by. :(

There was almost a MAJOR accident coming out of Turn 8 (section BEFORE the bridge):eek: A Porsche GT Cup car (one with the big azz spoiler) lost traction and skidded off on the right side of the track. Others slammed on their brakes causing two more to go off. One stalled in the middle of the road. Approx. 8-10 more cars came through at WOT!!! A yellow E36 was WOT, saw the accident, lifted, and started drifting through the turn. He literally almost hit the car that stalled in the middle of the road. That had to be the absolute worst place for that to happen!

We got some rain, particularly during 2 sessions. This caused 4-5 cars to go off.

The results are in..........and I am disappointed to announce them.

#1 is JessIe
#2 is Mikey52 (:rolleyes )
#3 Me. :(

Hey, you forgot me in #3.5 place, beeyotch! I finally stopped just reading the "kill stories" section and decided to come visit with you guys. Yeah, that damn Mike with RA1's, Carbon Hood (I heard it's good for 50hp), and that "Ultimate Downforce" spoiler passed me on my out lap when my tires were cold, brakes had no heat in them, and I had shut off my engine. I got him back in the hot pit, though.

Tfunk!! What's up, man?:stickoutt

JessIe and I ran at Summit Point this weekend. In fact, I JUST got back. Man, what a fun time. :redspot

Let us know when you plan to do another event. We will try to all go at the same time. :)

:rolleyes Did you ever find your doors? They flew pretty far when I blew them off.

Is that why one of the corner workers waved the yellow flag with red stripes? I thought it was for oil on the track, so I slowed down!! It was because of Tfunk's doors on the track?:confused

He cost me 2nd place!!!!!!!!!:mad

Dang, I was gonna come up and run in the Black group, but went to NC this weekend instead. Sorry I missed you guys, sounds like you had fun! Let me know the next event you're planning on attending.

any times from Summit?

No mid 1:20's, no care...
