We had a big handful of 8s go to the free track event. Many were there as early as 6am (I heard this from other people who registered late too.. so I guess our 8s were pretty famous/infamous?). Doesn't hurt to be a bit overprepared :lol2:

It was nice to meet dills, kersh, firstrotary and to see many familiar faces from our club on the track. I didn't stray too far away from my car (because of the creeping waiting line of cars) so I missed a couple 8s like nycqps's. Anyway, here are my pics.

track was no joke....the experienced groups had one instructor in front and then the rest of us followed the lines....so we were moving at a decent speed around the track.....good enough for 2 rx8's to spin out and a g35 to hit a wall

out of 5 runs, 2 of them were ripping around each corner. The other 3 where behind FWD cars....FTL.

At the straight away i hit redline in 3rd every time just before slamming on the brakes for the next turn. So much fun!

nycgps
10-19-2008, 07:59 PM
only 5 runs in total? well, I left after my 2nd run so ...

man, I wanna see the pics of the crashed G35 :( I think I know which one, cuz I think I saw only 1 G35, it was Grey, I think. driver is ok right ?

The track day was great ! my first run had an instructor with me (cuz I was leading pace car) He taught me lots of stuff. like how to cut time, turn in corners, braking, where to accelerate/decelerate. on my 2nd Run I fell to the last place because I was trying to "follow/learn" what the instructor has taught me, Damn that white Mazdaspeed 3 he thought that I cant catch up. blah. maybe next time.

I got 6 runs in................ Oh hey i dont know the name of the person who lent me the helmet. But Thank you........! i will be bring it to the tursday night meet....... fyi all my runs were good.

But in "one" run a Rx8 in front of me spun out in the morning. Then in the afternoon another Rx8 spun out behined me. WOW. Either they're trying to hard to get away or trying to hard to keep up lol. j/k. i'm just glad everyone was OOOK.


i will be adding some pics soon.

I got my free t-shirt, they were basiclly begging people at the end to take them.

LOl omar, It wasnt a spin out, it was a "tactical move to counter the understeer".

The vredistiens i had in the front killed the runs with the understeer but other than that the 8 makes one hell of a track car.

nycgps it was the black G35.
I saw him oversteer, then either his "anti-stupid" kicked in or he paniced, next thing is see is his car fishtailing and then kaboom.

kersh4w
10-19-2008, 11:28 PM
wait... you saw him understeer then he oversteered?

or he oversteered and kept oversteering?

RX927
10-19-2008, 11:48 PM
He Understeered, then either he or the car corrected it, in the proccess the back kicked out and sent him into the wall. There was serious body roll and braking through all of this as if the car or him was trying to correct it.

Once i get the camera uploaded you might be able to picture the fail better. I have a picture of him coming out of the turn, one of him sliding, and then the crash aftermath.
I was trying to get the pics of the skylines running as they were in the same run but ended up withh the g35 crash

I took a few shots but not much. It was too much fun that sometimes I "forgot that I have da camera"

rofl, @ the track I kept my gear in 3rd position the whole time.maybe thats why it was slow, but hey, thats why I never spin/crash rofl :P

Was the G35 black ? u sure ? ... hmmm ......

when did the accident happen anyway? near the end of the day ? or ?

on my 1st run the instructor was in my car (i was the pace car) and told me to keep it in 3rd, its for safety issue. thats why I did the same thing even in my 2nd run.

i think he said it for warranty reasons.

cuz its known in the subaru and mitsubishi community that, if the plate number is displayed on any of the track event/race pictures, they will run some check to see if its still in warranty, if it is, they will void it.

10-20-2008, 07:55 PM
look for snell 2005 or newer. i found my helmet on ebay for $40. $8 shipping. i think it was stolen. its a nice helmet.

about warranties, my bumper to bumper is up in 2 months i think. i dont really care. i came into my dealership with my entire interior stripped out and VHT (sticky stuff put down for drag racing) all over my rear bumper. my service tech wasnt entirely happy with me, but i mean.. whatever. im not coming in for transmissions or engines or whatever. im coming in for an oil change. she asked me grimly, "do any zoom-zoomin?" i was acted surprised, "what? no.. of course not."

haha. honestly, that vht? i have a friend who is a real prankster. and i took out my interior so i could vacuum it better.

my engine will be turbo'd before 100k and if it goes, i think im putting an LSx in there. bring on the haterade.

wish someone has a video of how he crashed.

he asked for the crash tho, traction control off ... not like he is a professional or anything.

I was thinking about taking TCS/DSC off in the later runs.. kersh had it off :)

Back in June, I had it off and the 8 wasn't scary at all (it's different now b/c of the cold)

i had my dsc/tc off the entire time.

i can feel it interferring with the driving. of course, the time i talked a lot of shit to chrism about him keeping his on, is the time i spun out. got to love karma!

(chris, i did the same thing. haha cant stop screenshots!)

i looked through the source of the page, but i dont know javascript that well. but considering that photoshop can save screenshots in a lossless format i got them just as well as you. :P

check out that pic of the smoking toyota ae86. looool. that was definitely one i saved.

i also noticed this one guy hanging back... i think he was driving a chick car.. i wonder why he lagging so far behind?

10-20-2008, 11:12 PM
I had my Ezpass on too.

I didnt take it off because its so tight that I need 2 hands to take it off sometimes. so I guess that should be tight enough, right ? :lol:

I did put everything else into the trunk tho (water bottles, floor mats, etc)

Hey chris, if you didn't have the hard top convertible would you need a track roll bar in order to run? I didn't see any on the S2000's there but I remember hearing something along those lines

the stock suspension on the rx8 is pretty damn decent. what the car lacks is power. so any money i put in my car usually is orientated to making the car faster in a straight line. it already handles so well.

yeah you need scca roll bars to be able to drive and i believe the s2ks have them stock while mine arent high enough....

looks really good. i tihnk he should keep that way. looks clean;)
