TRUENOCOUPE · 10-23-2003, 03:03 PM

As for my exhaust, I might get a new one but the only other one I like besides the DD that I have is the CBY which cost about $1200.

I better check my truck see if I have any of that cotton shiet. That was funny tho cause it took me awhile to figure out where that shiet came from.

RBS14 · 10-23-2003, 03:39 PM

Yea, i had a great time too! Can't wait till the next event! I'm in there like swimwear! My day went pretty good, aside from one of my studs breaking, it was great! My car needs some TLC too........ need to get my frame pulled, put my coilovers on, and hopefully get some RUCA's. Sigh*

Remember its the real deal out there, even though most of us are not going that fast.

AMERICAN STOCKCAR CHALLENGE (ASC) DRIVER INVOLVED IN FATAL INCIDENT.

Buttonwillow Raceway Park. Buttonwillow, CA. Saturday October 18th 2003. A tragic one-car accident during an American Stockcar Challenge (ASC) race took the life of series regular William "Billy" Blauvelt of Ringwood, NJ.

Early in the 30-minute timed event, Blauvelt apparently lost control of his race car and slid off course, impacting a dirt embankment. Witnesses reported that no other cars were nearby and that the incident took place at a relatively slow part of the 3.1 mile road course.

Rescue crews arrived within seconds and immediately extracted
Blauvelt. He was quickly airlifted by helicopter to Kern Medical
Center where he was pronounced dead soon after. Kern County Coroner Investigator Ken Noack listed the official cause of death as a "Closed Cranio Cervical Injury with a Basal Skull Fracture". A
preliminary inspection indicated that all the safety equipment functioned properly.

Blauvelt began racing in 2001 after over a decade of high performance driver's education with several other driving organizations. He was passionate about exotic cars and had owned quite a few, including a Ferrari, a Dodge Viper, an Acura NSX, a replica Shelby Cobra and several race prepared Porsches. He drove the #44 Chevrolet Monte Carlo for the RealRide Racing team and had recently finished on the podium at his last ASC race.

Blauvelt was 38 years old and is survived by his wife Adriana and 18 month old son Nikolas.

Contributions to Nikolas' education fund can be sent to:

Nikolas W. Blauvelt
PO Box 412
Ringwood, NJ 07456

the car hit a dirt embankment at the off ramp turn(formerly the buttonhook turn) on the passenger side. eye witnesses at the turn said the car came off the race surface side ways and hit the embankment on the side. other ASC racers said the entrance speed of this turn is about 80mph. carrying the car onto the top of the 4' embankment. so the car didn't hit and stop it scrubbed speed and momentum as it came to rest.

RBS14 · 10-25-2003, 12:56 AM

^^^

Wow, crazy shit. It doesn't seem like you could kill yourself by sliding off the off ramp but obviously you can.

thx247 · 10-25-2003, 06:15 PM

I was suprised their entry speed is the same as ours.

Although, they might be going clockwise, which in that case 80mph is really fast lol.

TRUENOCOUPE · 10-25-2003, 07:20 PM

DAMN...

From that turn, My speed is atleast 80MPH. Third gear redline.

My intent is to drift and not grip anyways so it'll slow me down a lot afterwards.

R.I.P.
