Thanks for posting those vids Tae. Laura apologizes for her drunken camera holding Great run everyone! Definately shaved several hundred miles of tire life today...
Every time I look at this thread it makes me sadder that I couldn't make it Well I'll be here all summer so I just hope I'll be able to do the next one.
-I tried to not lag too far behind you guys but I just couldn't pull it off. But I was last :keke: Had to take it easy and not shave my tries any more than I did.(post pic soon) it was fun though my 2nd mtn run nice meeting everyone old and new faces. What ever happend to the nsx and s2000 never saw them again after wall-mart. mtn qoute of the day "THIS IS MY MOUNTAIN":rofl:
It was great seeing and meeting everyone yesterday. It was a beautiful day and the mountains were calling. I think the purpose of showing Milo's car was to serve as a reminder that those roads are NOT a race track and that even skilled drivers can have unknown things happen at unexpected times. It is a nice reminder of what may and has happened in the past. As long as Milo doesn't mind the past being brought up, then I really think that pic should go into every post that has anything to do with running in the mountains. That being said, yesterday was awesome, I don't think the people in Cleveland knew what to think about us. "where the ho's" :rofl:
Well WTF? Microsoft doesn't even have the frikin codecs and I've spent like an hour trying to watch these motherfuckers. Grrrrr.
get ou a gom player. just search gom player and download it. it should play all types of files thats out now.
Thanks!! :bigthumb: I got coverage!!! woohoo :bananaf course that vid makes me look like a liar kinda wasnt last at that point. da wagon looks kinda sexy hittin corners. bigger tires really help out in the twisties...Need suspension before my next mtn run keep rubber out da fender well lol The craziest thing happened on the way home on 19 this really slow van(doing kinda like that esclade) was in front of me and two pocket rocket bikers behind me first I thought they was watin to pass so I slowed put on hazzards to give em room but they didnt want to pass we ar going below the speed limit when we get to where the rock pile is the van turns like it going to pull off and turns sharply in front of me I hit the brakes with the bikers squarely in reaview but they know its know its not my fault. there is finally an opening to pass and I downshift/upshift and take it and the wind gets under my car or something:dunno some kind of way it felt like I was gettin sucked into the van that I was passin and the bikes were right on me to passing also. WTF happened? if I didnt have both hands on the steering wheel...hnoes: bikers followed me all the way to 400 and they turned around gave me a thumbs up. Always be careful out there.:ddirty:
Ha ha. Yeah my car was hogging the camera in those last two! I just we had gotten coverage from about 10 minutes after that. I know my back tire got off the ground at least once. It felt like I was ripping up the road more than my tires. And damn, I think that was the first time I really pushed that hard.... I mean, wow that was once nice quiet cruise! Ha ha.
"THIS IS MY MOUNTAIN"..... I think I've heard a song thats somewhat related to that... Rage Against The Machine - FUCK The Police *BTW, I'm not bashing any of the fellow officers on here*
the cop that came to us said that. not exactly in those words but he did say "im not gonna....my mountain... blah blah"
we could do one later in the day when theres not much traffic and cops. when we were coming home we have not passed many cars going up the mt. it was all open and noone was on it.
Besides the cop...... :hsugh: No wonder you evo guys never wave, you can't see for shit! It was the same one from the top, so i gave him a wave and he smiled and waved back. If it wasn't for that crazy group..... GAH! :rofl: Hell, I'd been sitting there for 30 minutes when he came in
oh... really? i didnt see him. oh well. thats why i got the asphalt color car. to blend in. and apparently it worked. all i need is the yeller stripes going in the middle to be stealthy as a ghost. see we dont pay attention to little details like you greg~! ssh:
What pisses me off even more is jake and I went back to jason's place after the run and watched the incar stuff he had. We watched "the crazy group" that jason was driving in and went through the whole last run up to that hiking store we didn't see him anywhere. Then when the slow group that i was leading came by, the cop was there but we were doing the speed limit and the caddy stopped in the passing lane right in front of the cop, and we had to swerve around him. So what was that cop talking about. He either wasn't there to see you guys going a quick around that corner and merely heard you or saw us going slow around it and decided to make up some crap. And I still don't get what that bike guy was talking about. He wasn't on video or anything. Was he warning you guys about the cop or what?
I saw a cop when we just started up the mountain (i think). I first saw a blue wrx and we all waved then I saw the cop and I waved him too.
well i didnt see that biker guy. i dont remember passing him. nor the cop. when he said the cops are looking for the "people" i was like ... huh~? what cop?
It was actually me disguised as the cop...I am really still here in GA...LOL....I fooled you all....J/K. Mark
The biker said that he was up someone's driveway AS we passed.... Dunno about that, but he was warning us that we passed him. The biker was behind that "crazy group" trying to keep up with...them, so he was doing the same Also, I want to see that video! Don't post it on here though
yes jason and i discussed that...it will not be posted. I know a few of the guys, like the corvette and 335i want copies. Just pm jason, he should have it up in a week or so. I may have to do it if his computer isn't cooperating. Well the cop being up the driveway makes sense, that explains not being on the video ...you could only see the very bottom of the driveway. Explains the biker too.
Yeah, the biker was trying to keep up, but we kept losing him in the corners. What's Jason's screen name?
jason <--Link It's good looking stuff...we've got pretty much the whole day, except for the hot chicks in cleveland...
Yeah, what he said. Give me about a week. I wont forget about you Greg, or Bomjoon. We Finally had a good run in at the end of the day.
Yeah, I found myself looking once or twice. But I honestly couldn't tell if they were young or old at first. As for that cop. I'm not even hatin on him. He's just up there doing his job. And yeah he was a country ass but that's just how it is. There are a lots of country people that we'd laugh at, but they probably laugh at us too.
Young...who cares...still hot. lol. Well it's not like we were doing anything crazy, it was just a mountain run. And yes he was just doing a job.
Which one? the one in zaxby's or the g35 that was parked near us...:drool: all of them had the good chance of one of us ending up on datline nbc.lol
what, you wrote down their plate # and did a back ground check lol :rofl: the one on the passensger seat was definately underage. what sucks is that we were all checking them out. heh
The mountains were gettin to us! Ha ha. Any longer up there and we'd've been calling each other Bubba and Haus.....
Yep! I'm pretty sure that silver one had a SC. They were both fast from the take off, from what I saw. Considering they didn't even really get on it too much.
The vert took off early then the silver one got on it a little bit to catch up. He wasn't doggin it but it didn't take him long to get out of sight either.
