Sorry guys, won't be there this date .... I was going, but found a BMWCCA Adv Skills Course on 8/20 @NHIS $45 & BMWCCA Driving School (HPDE) on on 9/8 @NHIS $165(!)...so like two events for the price of one, PLUS Speedracer is planning on an appearance w/his new MS Miata those dates - how could I miss the opportunity to pass him :D maybe for the 1st and last time he's around these parts ;)

Looks like its going to be just the two us at the track day. I just got a new computer to download videos so i can post them. :)

RPIRX-8 08-16-2005 09:25 PM

yup, i still think i'm gonna go. I mean, its only $235 right? who needs $235? I'm hoping to get bumped again to Intermediate 2 or Advanced. We'll see!

I also procured a camcorder and spinMOUNT, I've got some great video from the BMWCCA day.

vwnh 08-18-2005 12:32 AM

Ya me too...come on RPIRX-8... show us the vids... not only can't I hardly FIND you on the track, but now you got some live action proof of your abilities, you don't post um...?? :p

PS take more even on the 29th and post um too...I hear you're going to be w/me & Speedracer at BMWCCA on Saturday and also 9/8. Good show! How about you vwnh?

vwnh, what new tires you got :) to play with? Did you get the WL sways too?

RPIRX-8 08-18-2005 09:07 AM

I know I know, i need to get off my lazy arse and move the vids onto my comp. I'll need someplace to host them too, I don't think my cable modem connection at home can handle it. My 3rd session was the best one on Sunday from the BMWCCA day.

vwnh 08-18-2005 07:48 PM

New Tires are BF Goodrich g-Force T/A. I did not get the sway bars yet because I might get a 2006 when they come out. No info yet one the 2006 model. :)

RPIRX-8 08-18-2005 11:16 PM

why are you gonna get a 2006? don't like your 04?

Just looking to upgrade the only thing i would like to have that i dont now is trac control. I put the new tires on an i noticed that the car drives much differant than with the stock tires. I noticed the differance mostly when turning. It seems to turn much easyer than before. I seem to be chacing the car with the steering wheel when driving on the highway. Cant wait to get out on the track. to see what these tires will do. Hope to see you there. :)

rammstein 08-21-2005 08:59 PM

I think I will be able to go after all!!! I need to find that registration form...

RPIRX-8 08-22-2005 01:37 PM

Excellent! I should see you guys there. This is definitely gonna be a mechanics day for me. I'll be working on a new driving line through some of the sections.

Moe - are there any additions to the 2006 MY RX-8s?

rammstein 08-22-2005 02:33 PM

Wow. I am so pumped today! I can't wait for this. Anyone know if there is a garage still available? I also need to get the camera mount before then somehow... :p

I don't know the info will not be out till next month. did you check out the vids on my web page?

RPIRX-8 08-23-2005 12:54 AM

Yeah I checked them out, the one where I spin out is kinda funny. You can't see me but you can hear the tires screaching like a mutha!! Rammstein looks good going through the south chicane. You looked good too, looked like you were getting on the throttle a little more.

Where is your web page? ...couldn't find it... thanks

vwnh 08-23-2005 06:44 PM

I have about 5 minutes of Rammstein in front of me that are uploaded. I was doing pretty good for running with the a/c on. :)

RPIRX-8 08-23-2005 10:36 PM

oh yeah, haha, I forgot you left the a/c on. Twice even! :)

rammstein 08-24-2005 01:49 AM

VWNH- Where are these videos? I'd live to see them before the 29th!

vwnh 08-24-2005 10:30 PM

I had them uploaded and some how i lost it, but its back up now. I PM you the address :)

RPIRX-8 08-28-2005 07:52 PM

You guys ready? Speed Racer will be in attendance as well! Plesant surprise. I'll see you at 7:30 at the gate!

vwnh 08-29-2005 06:53 PM

Another great day at the track. NO RAIN. I think the tires were great, but i think i need a rear sway bar after thinking about how the car was handeling today. Justin i think i will take you up on the offer on the sway bar, if you still want to get ride of it. Let me know.

RPIRX-8 08-29-2005 09:48 PM

Another great day at NHIS with the SCDA. The weather looked quite ominous but it held out, then POURED on our way out. I managed to work the sway bar kinks out and the car rewarded me with my best day yet. Rammstein and vwnh looked awesome out there. Speed Racer wasn't in out group but attended with his MS Miata.

vwnh, I'll def sell you the sway bar. It'll be sometime around the end of this month unless I can find a good deal before next Thursday. I'll let you know.
