First off, it was a cold bitch. Im still cold and its 2 days later. Had a blast though, car worked as good as it could for what it is. Lost to an BSP prepped STi by 1.5 sec the first day, and beat the STi by a 1 sec the second day. How, I dunno, lol.
Heres whats left of my one or two day tire collection thats been building up after this weekend. These tires got us 27 45-55 second runs, not to bad for 5 throwaways. One more weekend and Ill have toasted all teh tires I have laying around that only have "one day left" on them. Im such a cheapskate, lol. The bottom 2 are Hoosiers, and one of them went to the steel cords before I caught it. The rest are Kuhmo v710's.
Heres a few of the vids from this weekend.
Lol, hear that axle telling me its done? I dont believe it though.

No pun intended right?
Ryan, I didnt know you lurked around here. Shoulda came out, or not, lol. It was colder than a witchs tit. Next event is a month out for some reason, you should try and make it out and at least catch a ride, or you could run yourself....<<subtile hint.
Love it when people who know how to take pix come out and share thier good snaps.
What day is it on? I will definitely try to make it out, and if I do not have a car by then maybe my buddy will let me use his em1.
I have been trying to find a deal on a wagon or another four door, but I don't think I have enough posts to view the fs section on here:(
wagon..............4ever....................
There should be numorous ways to go do this in CA. You should go out and play sometime. You know youll have fun...
Heres another vid I got downloaded. It was a chase the ass run, but thats always fun, even if its not the fastest way around the course.
That run was a 50.3 (I didnt get a rerun), my fastest until my last run was a 49.9. Somehow, when the tires were the most fuct up, I squeaked out a 48.4. I couldnt tell you how. That kinda luck I will never understand, lol.
Early May. 16's on front, 15's on back. (Got 2 16" Hoosiers for cheap)

This is me driving up for an example of how good the vantage point is for the guys coming out to get pix and vids this weekend our 43rd annual event. This footage is from the last corner on the big hill right above the sunroof of the crx.
Most hillclimbs dont have any good spots to watch from, so its kinda fun that you can see 80% of this course. Where the car goes out of view is the finish line which is 1.7 miles from the start line. Ive been going 100mph around that last corner before. Large adrenaline rush followed quickly, lol.
Its going down this weekend, if any of you are close enough...We give 6 - 1:40+ minute runs a weekend
