Actually, I stand corrected. Found another post by the guy here where he mentions being at the Ferrari Challenge. No mention of the Contour drivers laughing at him though.

thanks to all who showed up....i enjoyed it even though we had to pay a lot more to see a little less this year as compared to last year. grady, thanks for the floor space friday night and the dinner provisions at the cookout....and normally, i don'tdrive that fast. laugh call it peer pressure...lol. hope your neighbors aren't too riled up...

ken & jason, good to meet you. and jason, no problem on the TH fix cap. just glad i found it in my car...and that it killed your moose.

too bad tim kirk wasn't there to keep his 'longest drive' award....brinn had that one hands down this weekend. kudos to ashley for giving you permission... wink

other impressions:
- never knew a GT-R was that loud, or that it came in 4-door form.
- the 360 modena has NOT lost any of its stunningly gorgeous beauty in the last year.
- no one should *ever* let that dude in the "sausage" car quit racing. nothing like seeing a 1930's (?) vintage open-wheel race car hanging the tail out on every curve, trying desperately to keep up with cars 40-50 years newer!
- the sound of simon's vortech had me drooling...maybe one of these days it'll produce the power it's supposed to. just let grady poke at it a little bit more, and it'll be running just right... smile
- i hope paco got home allright...and still has a job, of course. wink
- even with all the import-hating that floats around over here, everyone (except wes, of course) has to respect the turbo'ed 5th-gen civic hatch that walked all over a C5 w/ a 12.7 (?) at commerce friday night...and then that 12-second supra...oh my.
- speaking of commerce, anyone wanna see what an SVT w/ a yakima rack'll do? wink

anyway....a very enjoyable meet. if my old-school 35mm non-digital film comes out okay, i'll try to scan in some of the pictures and email 'em to someone who can post them.

looking forward to the next one....dyno day part II, anyone? gotta see what simon's SC will do (after grady finishes fixing it, that is).

Yes...I must say both those vehicles were a treat.

The Supra seemed to get an excellent launch every time he lined up...and gracious, that sound. Unforgettable...

Mmmaybe next time you'll see a black S/C'ed SVT tour walk all over a few mustangs laugh

I had a great time as well. It was great to see everyone again, and nice to drive like an absolute maniac again, for a little while at least. It seems like my alter driving ego always rears its crazy head at these meets wink


Speed kills, but it beats going slow!
