Looks like you guys had fun. Too bad none of you showed up this morning to show us what you learned yesterday. You would've had a good chance at beating me too... I hit tons of cones and got my *** handed to me by ULLLOSE.

some more....after talking today at lunch, we decided that this is something we would like to do more of. Maybe try and get into some of the other practice events that are reasonable close, like San Diego.

You cant get into a SD practice unless you have a points card. You guys just need to hit some Sunday events. Also keep an eye open for the Evolution Driving schools when they come around, great program.

Good thing I found that cone out of the box on my 3rd run... Needed that 4th to get clean.

Thought I would post my best and worst times, in case anyone else in interested in sharing as well.

Morning times (dry conditions). Worst time.....69.372 (1st run) Best...60.678 (6th run).

Afternoon times (wet conditions). Worst time...67.779 (7th run) Best..60.998 (11th run).

some more of my favorites...I think there is a new avatar...hopefully a moving one...from these pics. Thanks again Loren and Jorge for weathering the elements and getting some awsome shots. I owe you another thanks, because there would have been no chance of me getting any of these myself.

Here's some more pics to share.

I thought you already had some clean runs in. Those cones were probably my fault. I was on a cone killing spree my 3rd run and you were only 2 cars behind me.

kwescott

Ulllose, MP5, how many competed today, and what were the best times in your divisions?

Did Toca show up? Or any more 8's?

3 RX8s today all in B Stock.
I ran a 52.3 clean
MP5 was pissed at the course workers and decided to make them all run by hitting every cone out there.

kwescott

Loren, please email me the originals for Keith1 and Keith 2 (givetokeith@yahoo.com).

Look at the pics in post 3228, chol2 and chol 3....I think you can tell which was the clean run, and which was the "cone killer" run....

And look at post 3229....Erica2, I think she is leaning more than the car

My first run was clean. I did not know until the results were posted but my 2nd run, 52.7, was dirty. I hit a cone right out of the start on my 3rd run so I started looking for a out of place cone and found one about half way around so I stopped and got a rerun. My rerun was 52.3.

....................... DAMN ....................... WOW......................... holy crap!..................... son of a ....................

I wish you would have gotten to drive my car when it was dry, I am curiouse what you would have gotten.

mp5

While 52.3 is a smokin time, you can't directly compare it to yesterday's times since they don't run the same course for practice and championship. You guys probably ran it backwards.

speeddemon32

here are my dry time..... in order of fastest to slowest, I usually keep track of them in order, but didnt this time.
55.345
56.280
56.666
56.928
57.208
62.723 (Spin)

wet times, same thing fastest to slowest. almost every run was loosing controll in one way or another:
60.729 (this was clean!)
62.801
64.269
73.442 (not real sure what happend here.... oh wait, I spun!)
6x.xxx timers were off, but it was a pretty fast clean run.

Jason ran a 58.891 ...... in the wet...... first time out...... in a car thats not his...... DAMN!

his wet time beat my wet time.... and he hadn't even driven the course untill he drove my car!



Jason, did they change the course any for today? EDIT: never mind..... MP5 answered that one. MP5, thats true, didnt think about that.

Random Jedi Thoughts:

First off, it was AWESOME seeing all of you guys again, it had been a while since I'd seen some of you. *cough cough* JASON!
Also, it was nice meeting new people; Zootender, Loren and Cesar's families, ULLOSE (finally), etc.

Loren & Kevin: Thanks for meeting up with me @ Farmers Boys. Would have been a really long day had we been on an empty stomach. PLUS I think the donuts went over well.

Keith & Erica: What can I say...THANKS! You two were awesome. Thanks for letting me go for rides in your cars AND for your generous hospitality last night.

Loren- It was cool hanging out with you on the track and taking all those pics. It was a bit scary at times with cars spinning out so close to us but I had a lot of fun. Any time you need a spotter, just let me know.

Lunch Crew - Thanks for grabbin' me some McDonalds! I think I owe someone a couple bucks.

Last but not least: It was nice to spend time with all of of you at Keith & Erica's last night. It was a blast getting to know more about all of you, learning how we all react to alcohol (including Keith's random dance moves), AND we all learned that I am definitely not very good at Taboo. We definitely need to do things like that more often.

xrider01

man, i'm just now getting to posting. the afterauto-xeventfootballwatchingpartygettogetheratkeith'spla cethingy was great . 'cept for the lugging of my 100Lbs. computer . but, no worries, i didn't mind. I got to get all the pix (except for keith's) w/o needing to download them from the site.

oh crap!, I almost forgot:

Xrider and I did some 'spirited driving' on the way home...turns out we both needed to take the 15S. Whats funny is we both have such dark tint that when we pulled up side by side, I couldn't even see inside your car! Could you see me? I tried waving...

Oh, and random question: WHY do ALL Scion Tc's find it necessary to try and race me?? I am I the ONLY one?
had one pull up to me on the 91 revvin' its little 4 cylinder engine. I used my Jedi Powers and severly HUMBLED him and his little car.

xrider01

lol...yes, the sprinted driving was fun . at the top of the on ramp i was pulling a buck five. jedi, your RB air system sounds nice . makes me want it even more!

as for the scion, are you talking about the Tc or the Xb? the Tc is half way decent, a friend of mine has one and he has it set up pretty cool . Still though, it doesn't compare anywhere in performance to our 8's . The Xb is truly a POS. all it is, is a toyta Echo w/an oversized shoe box for a body.

speeddemon32

hope this works Cesar

of course it would have been a lot faster had it been my car. oooooooooooooooooooooo
