What, no details on track day? How did you do Omi? Who all drove on the track?

I drove back to highway 103 today and up highwya 5 to Mt Evans. 103 is a blast! Even the second time around. 5 was not a road you want to drive fast on at all....if you haven't been up that one, don't go expecting to fly up it....narrow with straight down drop offs but what views!

Meet was great fun. Those that couldn't make it this year must plan now on attending next year.

RXhusker

There was one yellow 8 at the meet!

Omicron

Yup, right here. If you cannot get to that link, let Serff or I know.

Omicron

Track day was awesome too. I did just fine, but I'm NOwhere near the driver Darren (dplore) is! Anyway, I'll be doing a full writeup on the meet soon, things are just crazy at work right now. Stay tuned!

COspringsRX8

Yeah i went there already but the part of the forum its on, I must not have access to. I searched through every link to find it.

serff

I just put my pictures up in my gallery album. You can check them out here:

Enjoy!

RXhusker

Great pics Serff! Thanks for taking and posting them!

doccable

Yea, thanks Serff! I'd have to say that #38 is the best...:D

shebam

I like Doc's pictures the best; brings back the days before my cataract operations. But would be nice to know who was who. Anyone gonna post an ID guide -- for either the cars or the drivers -- for us non-Rocky denizens?

Also, who thought Omi's exhaust was too loud, and who thought it was just right or not loud enough?

RXhusker

Omicron was just running his Borla -- no midpipe or cat. The question is -- was RXHusker's exhaust too loud :D

P.S. -- that's me in pic 20, 21, 25, 26, 27,30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36 (my favorite!), 44, and 84.

shebam

Doh, I knew that! So that's where your road trip was to. (Didn't think there were many mountains 'round Omaha.) Jealous I ain't in range. Well then, same question re the RXHusker exhaust (from outside and inside the car).

Re the Pics, does numbering refer to the club web site pics? If so I'll need to get a signet ring to get on.

RXhusker

You should be able to just click on the link Serff posted above to access the pics. I haven't gotten any complaints on my exhaust noise -- I didn't even notice the interior noise level on my trip (over 1300 miles in 2 days).

shebam

Great pics! (At least of the cars.)

JERCS

Gas plus I got a 107 dollar ticket out of beaver expensive but fun!!!

RXhusker

Dang -- didn't you guys have you Valentine 1's plugged in?

Mine saved me at least 5 times on the way home :D Idaho Springs to Omaha in 7.5 hours (~635 miles)

JERCS

plugged in but he has hiding so damn good... pow! got me as i came over a hill doing over 100. but gave the ticket for 11 over... so i can't complain.

project

ah what a jerk! the cop that nailed me got me doing 95. and wrote the ticket for 95....

JERCS

can't wait to see what this will do to my already out of control insurance!

IGOZMZM

Dang, I feel lucky (many times over). First I win 3 out of 8 raffle prizes. Then I'm the only one from Utah that didn't get a ticket coming back home. Project I'm sorry about the clear corners, if I'm as lucky next year I will make sure your first to trade off prizes with :D I also enjoyed the drive out with you project.

Omicron, Doc and I finished up day 2 with a nice sortof mini-meet to put on the Borla exhaust (among other small mods). Thanks again for the help with that Paul, and thank your wife for the drinks and snacks for me and my friend. Paul I will be sending your a PM about the exhaust shortly.

Omicron

Got it Casey.

So, did you ever make it to the Cobra museam? And did you buy yourself a radar detector for the trip home?

IGOZMZM

The Cobra museum is only open on Saturdays so we had to bag that idea for this trip, but now I know and can plan ahead for next time I head out that way. I did end up getting the Escort Passport 8500 X50. I guess it's pretty new and it's only been out a few weeks to a month. Best buy had it on sale :D (the version with the blue display is $40 more!?!?!) But the only time I had real alerts from it was going north on I25, I got Lasered.

Omicron

Yup, there's one spot there just south of Loveland, CO where there must be some other source of Laser other than cops, as I always get it there too.

IGOZMZM

I've driven around through Price a few times with my 8. So would that make me the first??? :D

doubtful

Pretty much ya :p ive never seen one here though.
