Hope they have premium gas locally :)
pdxhak 04-14-2010, 09:56 PM Team Continental from the MNW meet has a track day coming up in May. Very doubtful I will be able to make that specific event but would be up for one later in the year. We should get a specific date together for an 8club track day.
JantzenRX-8 04-14-2010, 11:38 PM Oh it's you guys :lol2:
I was browsing new posts and i was like WTF is ORP! *click*
I never got to go to ORP. Looks like a great course though.
PS -- doesn't my new avatar make me look official :D:

dondo 04-27-2010, 12:26 PM i'm on the fence at the moment.. who's gonna push me over??
pdx, shaun, or nemesis, are you guys going?
Nemesis8 04-27-2010, 01:47 PM I have an scheduling conflict for the 22nd - I'm out it seems.
pdxhak 04-27-2010, 03:03 PM I can not do May but will later in the year. Too much going on at work and at home.
afgmoto1978 04-28-2010, 09:57 AM Whatever, I'm closing on my new house on the 14th, but I'm still going.
pdxhak 04-28-2010, 10:07 AM Congrats on your new house. If all I had going on was closing on a house then I would go too ;)
dondo 04-28-2010, 11:18 AM sad days.. shaun?
afgmoto1978 05-19-2010, 09:52 AM You guys missed out. It was an open trackday with no groups and we were going counter clockwise.

Nemesis8 05-19-2010, 11:02 AM You smoked those Porsches - thanks for sharing! I have only been there once, and my car's engine was down 40 HP. I will be back.
pdxhak 05-19-2010, 11:10 AM I will be back.

Were the 911s going slow because you flew by them. Amazing how quickly you caught after entering the track. Did the splitter and wing work as you expected?
afgmoto1978 05-19-2010, 11:30 AM I was closing in on cars at that same rate of speed all day, except for a handleful of known fast drivers and cars. I was killing everybody on the corners.
Oh yeah, my neck is still sore from the G's. Went all the way to 10 degrees on the rear wing to balance out the front splitter downforce. Had amazing grip even on the 2/3 gear off camber corners.
dondo 05-19-2010, 04:26 PM thanks for the vid. that looks like a blast!
i couldn't end up making it out.. how many people finally made it? last count i hear was 38 cars?
afgmoto1978 05-19-2010, 05:14 PM Your right
TANKERG 05-19-2010, 05:43 PM That track has some crazy hills, especially at 3:32. That must feel really cool.
dondo 05-19-2010, 05:51 PM That track has some crazy hills, especially at 3:32. That must feel really scary.
fixed.
TANKERG 05-19-2010, 05:54 PM ^haha
and1kidd 05-20-2010, 11:55 AM i cant get the video to play :(
Nemesis8 05-20-2010, 12:04 PM It is literally a thrill ride - I want to do it again with the new engine. When I was there, they did not have apex curbs and the run-out took you into un-groomed dirt. It looks way better now for safety and speed.
