Nice pics...just word of advice...try to PS your licence plate out please...for obvious reasons...

 

who crashed?? was it a 350??

 

it was a g35 and from what i read he turned the traction control off in a turn, started to lose it, let off the gas and snap oversteer sent him into the wall

 

ROFL !

First run and he turned his traction control off ?!

Thats what he deserves then :D

 

what are the obvious reasons?

seriously.. hundreds if not thousands of people can see your license plate daily... what is the difference if its in a picture..?

my license plate is eff7770.. please do something with it.

 

i think he said it for warranty reasons.

cuz its known in the subaru and mitsubishi community that, if the plate number is displayed on any of the track event/race pictures, they will run some check to see if its still in warranty, if it is, they will void it.

 

oh by the way, for those who have their own helmet, any idea where to get a good full helmet at a good price? any special requirements or rating that I should be aware of ?

thx

 

look for snell 2005 or newer. i found my helmet on ebay for $40. $8 shipping. i think it was stolen. its a nice helmet.

about warranties, my bumper to bumper is up in 2 months i think. i dont really care. i came into my dealership with my entire interior stripped out and VHT (sticky stuff put down for drag racing) all over my rear bumper. my service tech wasnt entirely happy with me, but i mean.. whatever. im not coming in for transmissions or engines or whatever. im coming in for an oil change. she asked me grimly, "do any zoom-zoomin?" i was acted surprised, "what? no.. of course not."

haha. honestly, that vht? i have a friend who is a real prankster. and i took out my interior so i could vacuum it better.

my engine will be turbo'd before 100k and if it goes, i think im putting an LSx in there. bring on the haterade.

 

Woohoo a bunch of us are in a vid!

I was definitely guilty of "hanging back"

Edit: that comes from http://martyphoto.net/ .. I think it's the official event pics site.. pics came out great!!

 

Here are a few pictures throughout the day. I have may more but compressing them would take hours. If anyone wants high quality version of a picture just let me know.

Begining of the day. Note the time 4:32 Am

THis is the g35 seconds before the crash. Note the angle he took the turn.....


The crashing....


Continued




The aftemath. Best of luck to the driver. I think we can all feel his pain.



And too end the day my average Mpg.

 

wish someone has a video of how he crashed.

he asked for the crash tho, traction control off ... not like he is a professional or anything.

 

I was thinking about taking TCS/DSC off in the later runs.. kersh had it off

Back in June, I had it off and the 8 wasn't scary at all (it's different now b/c of the cold)

 

 

i had my dsc/tc off the entire time.

i can feel it interferring with the driving. of course, the time i talked a lot of **** to chrism about him keeping his on, is the time i spun out. got to love karma!

(chris, i did the same thing. haha cant stop screenshots!)

 

Ha ha ha I know how to get the real ones!

Javascript can't stop a web developer

 

i looked through the source of the page, but i dont know javascript that well. but considering that photoshop can save screenshots in a lossless format i got them just as well as you. :P

check out that pic of the smoking toyota ae86. looool. that was definitely one i saved.

i also noticed this one guy hanging back... i think he was driving a chick car.. i wonder why he lagging so far behind?



(btw, i got this pic from a guy standing right next to the track photographer. i have 10 total.)

 

chris and kersh, check your PMs

 

Me to here is me YEAAA LOL........... I changed my RIMS and front bumper for the=is track day for those who dont know my car---





















I like this pic-----

Aww. I saw myself on the site. damn I look mad cool y0 LOL

Anyway, hmm any more free events ?
