Flybert · 12-04-2003, 12:54 PM

You can't be talking about broke. I'm getting my tires in the mail today and the only money I have left is to mount these suckas and for another tank of gas. Gotta make it til next wednesday when I get paid but even then with Christmas and a GF who likes nice presents, I'm going to be broke again. I don't really think I should be going but I can't pass this up. Any news on when the next event will be?

nokeone · 12-04-2003, 02:18 PM

sometime next year...prolly not until March...maybe one in January....we'll see..

Flybert · 12-04-2003, 11:40 PM

Tonight, my car was broken into in Pasadena at PCC and I can't go to the event. My helmet, tools, and radio were stolen. If anybody knows of someone selling a Bell M2 PRO please let me know. I just got it 2 weeks ago and now I'm SOL cuz I can't go to the event. Why is it that someone decides to jack me when I have all my stuff ready for a track event? I hope you guys have fun out there while I try to scrap money together to get a new passenger side window. Motherfuckers just broke in. This has been a great day as you can see. I'll make another thread in CHAT soon.

And all this shit happening after I said I was fucking broke. Now I'm broke with a fucking broken in car. FUCK THIS!!!

Sorry to hear Chris.

I hope you can get back on your feet. I feel you on this. I was dead broke when I started with all this event. Borrowing shiet from friends.

Goodluck once again Chris. Ill tell Charlie and Alex whats up.

NZO · 12-05-2003, 06:34 PM

So howd it go?

balmo · 12-05-2003, 06:53 PM

godspeed, drive home safe, caravan style. dont forget harris ranch

thx247 · 12-05-2003, 10:32 PM

Went fine, we just got back in. (S13Chica, me and halz and another)

Track was good, no rain or anything. Lot of people going off still, but towards the end of the day not much of that was happening. Did some testing between cars and different setups.

On the way home Halz lost a tire (azenis) and we had to replace on the side of the highway. Otherwise non eventfull. Still probably one of the best track events for seat time and easy going people. Now if only my datalogger fucking came through. Sucked I wanted to see if 180 brakes worked better than stock.

I think I found the magic PSI for azenis on a stock 240, 39psi. 40 seems to work really well for turn in, but understeers just a tad too much on some corners. 38 which I was running was cool and all but I could not floor it in some turns.

SR cars are still slow

s13chica · 12-05-2003, 11:07 PM

I had a really great time at the event...so much track time...so worth every penny spent. It was really cool of Chris to come out with the signal car...even if he did get a little too close to the wall for comfort!

Thanks Alex and Charlie for all your pointers...I still suck...but at least I'm learning.

I always love these track days...so much track time, and such a good crowd of people!

thx247...you know you LOVE the power of an sr!!! Stop lieing to yourself!

UCC0279 · 12-05-2003, 11:21 PM

Well, only one word: TIRED.......

Other than that, it's all good.
BTW, this is Peter

Good night guys.
zzzzzzzzzz................

TRUENOCOUPE · 12-06-2003, 11:18 AM

Thanks to everyone that came out. No thanks for you Driftheaven. Ruining the track and taking too much time from everyone cause of your POS car. hahhahha Damn Tie Rods huh?

Thanks again Everyone. See you all next year.

neevosh · 12-06-2003, 12:39 PM

Fun event. I just wish my car was running right so I could beat on it. Oh well, next time.

Halz · 12-06-2003, 01:49 PM

Very fun event, as always.. glad it didn't rain, that woulda made things fun, but way too messy

Oh, and I know exactly where the tire is.. THE FUCKING DUMPSTER

If you'll take a look at the pictures, you can see that the problem wheel has the word 'BENT' written on it; hehehe.. yeh, that was from the first event

That bent, yet lead-assisted-balance wheel, went on to see another event at buttonwillow, and an event at streets of willow..
This last event, however, I'm pretty sure that wheel had at least one, two... four? run-in at a bad angle with a rumble strip.
With the wheel off the car, I noticed the largest lead weight was.. no longer attached.. doh.
The breakaway of tire-from-tire was really progressive.. at first I thought the subtle rustle was an old truck driving nearby.. after looking around and not seeing anything nearby, and then beginning to feel a complimentary shutter in the rear.. and then finally the noisy breakaway.
Thankfully it wasn't on a steering/braking wheel.. then again.. i might have felt it coming across in the steering system earlier.. ohwell. And i'm surprised it didn't happen at the track.. the speeds at times were about the same.. ~80mph, or so

hahahahhahahhhahahhahhahhahahhahha

You don't even wanna know why im in the middle of the track.

Flybert · 12-06-2003, 03:24 PM

Anyone here know someone who is parting out an S13 because I need the passenger side window after the bastards broke it and stole all my shit so I couldn't go to this event. Looks like a lot of fun, I'll definitely see you guys at the next event if I can save up for a helmet by then. Hopefully someone will buy me some tools for Christmas or something and the face of the radio that they tore off. MOFOS!!!

thx247 · 12-06-2003, 04:38 PM

Flybert I had these windows until just recently. I will ask if they have been thrown out yet.

Flybert · 12-06-2003, 06:15 PM
