Sorry I will be missing this. I was planning on going but value my marriage too much. Especially after Friday night out with Ball....I am in the dog house for awhile. Matt, wife gave me the you smell like a hooker line too.

 

Good luck with that PSRS. I've installed 3 sets on 3 cars and all them eventually CLUNKED! Got the GTSpec one and no issues plus got more castor.

 

MAJOR Fail!

 

Uber fail. Ya doing it wrong!

 

Ill be there in Jacks Vette....Cooling issue is fixed so we can use all the gears now....

 

...sweeettt....:hsugh:

Jack's done lost his mind, you must be really good on your knees :rofl:

 

I am in the dog house but my time does not start until Sunday.

SS I am in, talk to Doug.

I hope my dunlops have enough left I don't have the time to put on the re01r's and get to GTE.

EDIT: Drew your car still hasn't moved WTF?

 

:wiggle:

 

well I was wrong it moved 20ft closer to Atlanta Rd, if it moved 20ft a day it will be out the gates by Friday.:rofl:

 

The PSRS (ALK) for your car is completely different than the PSRS for my car. The other brands have failed since they use a bushing. The Perrim piece is a spherical bearing so it cannot wiggle its way out like the other brands. The major downfall is that it is harsh and I can feel every little crack in the road now.

 

*IT'S ON!!!*

That's right, I spoke with the track owner this evening and even though our numbers are much lower than anticipated, he's working with us to be able to run the competitive event. Just FYI, the competition insurance is nearly $1k and the required ambulance is $600. Those costs are what makes a competitive event SO much more expensive than a normal "test and tune." Anybody who's not a registered driver will have to pay the $5 gate fee.

So we will definitely be having the event and those that want to compete will have the AMB transponders there.

To rent the transponder will require the $40 transponder fee and leaving you driver's license AND a credit card with the transponder rental people.

This is great news. If you haven't paid yet, please call TopSpeed tomorrow and pay. If you were holding off registering, pre-registration will still be $30 cheaper than registering at the gate.

If you have any questions, please PM, text, or call us.

Thanks,
Siegel

 

Doug should have paid me up for the hpde. Meet at teh McDonalds as usual?

 

The TopSpeed crew is going to be there EARLY to get setup... So not sure about caravaning...

I would love to bring my stock 02 wrx out there, but im scared i'm gonna make a fool out of my self.

 

Naw, it's all fun. Is this your first time at a track? Just have a blast. The stock wrx is more than capable.

 

If you think you will love it who cares what someone else will think? everyone started somewhere.

hell I've been autocrossing for 9 years and driven on little tally 4 times and I am still scared I'll make a fool of myself.

come on out and play

 

yeah man come out an play...we can change your name to wreckedwrx
I will be out there tearing up a 450wheel miata in my wrx

 

450 wheels. Must be expensive when he needs a tire change lol

 

You won't make a fool of yourself. To do that you need to drive a 500whp car with all season tires, shitty hawk street pads and hit 120 on the back stretch



Seriously though TGP is a forgiving track and a good place to learn. This event is also inexpensive compared to some other track days.

I paid on Wednesday. Got corner balanced and dynoed.
I'll be running 355whp with 2740lb weight
(without me so +~190 - yeah I'm phat)

It's running a stock tune and is waaaaay too rich.


I need a tune after this event.

See you all there!

 

I might show up and watch you guys. Not sure if my car is ready for competition yet.

 

You should run 7/10 just for fun as a reference point for next time

Looks like a beautiful day tomorrow

That was an awesome day! Big thanks to TopSpeed and the folks at Little Tally for a great event. Everyone that missed this should come out for the next one...even if you're gonna spectate or ride shotgun, like me.





I took too many pictures; I'll post them up when I can.

 

what a great day. The weather was beautiful and the driving was fantastic. Too bad I ran out gas at the start of the 5th session. I wasn't sure if I was going to make it to the next gas station.

 

Good times! You could not have asked for a better track day as far as weather and track conditions! Good job on hosting the event Topspeed! Wnet off with out a hitch.

 

Results? Times?

 

2nd in small bore. 1:16.013 was my best time. First was a lotus elise.

 

Xan, that's not that common of a name LOL did we do a racing school together in march of '07?

That looks like Scott is giving Doug a run for it in the twisties.

 

I was trying to get some good vid of Doug's car. Unfortunatly we didn't catch him on vid drifting it thru skid pad. It looked awsome watching from behind him! That car sound really mean!

 

Trying to download some vids...
