If you could have attended and did not show w/o a good reason......

Look in the mirror and tell yourself "Damn, I missed out!"

Friday morning my 8 month old decided to wake up and want to play at 3AM while I was getting ready to go to work for 4AM. My wife had to stay up with her until 7AM then get herself ready for work. I felt bad or her so when I got in from work at 12:30PM my Mom dropped off the 8 month old and I had to make 6 bottles and pack diapers. I also took my 8 year old out of school early and headed off to PA at 1PM. I thought I would give my wife a break and take the kids. We were out until almost 2 in the morning Saturday. I had to be at work 5AM so I only got 2 hours sleep. I was up all day Saturday while my wife went out.
Sunday, again, kids in tow we head out to the picnic. And I had to go back to work in NYC at 5:30PM. My wife met me at my job with my uniform and took the kids home. It is now 3:00AM in the morning and I will probally only get another 3 hours sleep tops before Monday starts.
All that and I still made the convention. So to all of those who did not make it and could have, SHAME ON YOU!. This kid owns you!

BTW, thanks to BigPepNYC(Walter) for giving me the A/C compressor harness to help make the trip(s) this weekend comfortable. You truly are a lifesaver.
Thanks to all those who were involved in putting this the Convention together. I speak for the entire Team Serious.

How do you spin in that corner? I was trying to get the rear to rotate better in that corner, but the car just stuck.

I was catching a nice drift through there. Must have been that Harry Barker tire tuning.

BigB · 05-09-2006, 11:35 AM

a little late/trail braking and the rear would step out a bit on Flipper...

a little earlier on turn in wider line and i was shifting to 4th coming up to pit out....

Boy that looked like fun. At least Jun signed up to run the course. You go Urban... Some people just play armchair quarterback...

Everybody commenting drove at the track day....

We all have gone off at one time or the other, and people have busted our balls about it.

Junior's b14 also had geforce kd tires in the back and the 215 azenis up front.

I blame the G's on my spin :p

I lifted coming through that drift and went to far out.. luckily the guy behind me was paying attention.. he was on my ass prepping to pass

urbanracerone · 05-09-2006, 02:15 PM

it was an awsome spin, i had the world of fun on my first time at the road course!

P.S. My car was not set up at all for the road course, the camber was at 0 degree all the way around, i found those to old azines laying around my buddies shop the day before the convention. This car is set up purley for drag, as soon as i took the traction bars off the car just started cutting loose. like i said i was just trying it out, i was not out their to become a professional. most importantly i had the world of fun, and i know my instructor pissed on him self a few times!, lol

That turn is known to have eaten a few cars. I've seen some fun recoveries out of the grass there. Saw a car jump 3 feet in the air keeping the momentum going after going off course. Funny sh*t! Everyone was clapping and cheering.
