It's Friday !!! and the best part...
Andy's R has now been towed home, developed rod knock after we changed the retaining clip.
Hunter (parkers brother) spun Parkers car at the kink in the 4th session. I've got pics, and will post later. Needless to say, the car went into the tirewall. Hunter is ok, and even showed me the footage from inside his car. The commentary is the best part.
So far for me, I'm signed off for Solo tomorrow, should be a blast. Now, the 1st and 2nd session, I was getting passed left and right. Now, maybe one car per session. So looks like I'm keeping up. Oh, they also stuck me in the Solo group, but with instruction, not in DE like I thought they would.

How badly damaged is parker's car? I'd love to see the video. Glad everyone is alright and that you're doing well and having a good time. Can't wait to see pics/vids/nekked chicks/etc

Erik, I'm still "breathing" before the kink, but I'm foot on floor across it. Just a breath to catch myself/line, then turn and full throttle. I managed to squeek over it at 115 once or twice, but it was hot and towards the end of my session so tires were pretty warm too.
Hunter is fine, parker went off. Got to a family meeting type of point so I walked away. I've got pics of his car as well.
Today, I had an S spin right in front of me, first left after the kink. I saw it rotate, he stayed on, I slowed way the fawk down, and paused while d00d got the car in the right direction. Whhhhheeeeeeee!!!
All in all, I had a FUCKING BLAST!!! I can't wait for Sept now. I'm coming back for sure, and with 2 cars. Old man wants to drive CMP as well.

can't wait for pics! Can't you upload them from the road?
When I was there for we-todd expo I only went completely flat out through the kink once or twice at about 120 or so. Can be a little scary, but lots of fun and theres tons of room to do it.
Again, can't wait for pics/vids

Almost. I didn't realize until I started looking through them on the PC that the ISO was set WAY high, 1600 during the sunny day. So sorry if the pics seem a little grainy.Bbasso wrote:very good pics!
Andy's girl picked it right up and went out shooting. I was impressed, didn't figure she knew anything, I was a bit wrong. LOL
