Momentum Keeps Me Going
Sorry guys, won't be there this date .... I was going, but found a BMWCCA Adv Skills Course on 8/20 @NHIS $45 & BMWCCA Driving School (HPDE) on on 9/8 @NHIS $165(!)...so like two events for the price of one, PLUS Speedracer is planning on an appearance w/his new MS Miata those dates - how could I miss the opportunity to pass him :D maybe for the 1st and last time he's around these parts

yup, i still think i'm gonna go. I mean, its only $235 right? who needs $235? I'm hoping to get bumped again to Intermediate 2 or Advanced. We'll see!
I also procured a camcorder and spinMOUNT, I've got some great video from the BMWCCA day.

I know I know, i need to get off my lazy **** and move the vids onto my comp. I'll need someplace to host them too, I don't think my cable modem connection at home can handle it. My 3rd session was the best one on Sunday from the BMWCCA day.

Excellent! I should see you guys there. This is definitely gonna be a mechanics day for me. I'll be working on a new driving line through some of the sections.
Moe - are there any additions to the 2006 MY RX-8s?

Yeah I checked them out, the one where I spin out is kinda funny. You can't see me but you can hear the tires screaching like a *****!! Rammstein looks good going through the south chicane. You looked good too, looked like you were getting on the throttle a little more.

I have about 5 minutes of Rammstein in front of me that are uploaded. I was doing pretty good for running with the a/c on.

Another great day at the track. NO RAIN. I think the tires were great, but i think i need a rear sway bar after thinking about how the car was handeling today. Justin i think i will take you up on the offer on the sway bar, if you still want to get ride of it. Let me know.

Another great day at NHIS with the SCDA. The weather looked quite ominous but it held out, then POURED on our way out. I managed to work the sway bar kinks out and the car rewarded me with my best day yet. Rammstein and vwnh looked awesome out there. Speed Racer wasn't in out group but attended with his MS Miata.
vwnh, I'll def sell you the sway bar. It'll be sometime around the end of this month unless I can find a good deal before next Thursday. I'll let you know.
