i had to miss this event, but i know steve, paul, and mark were there. any highlights so that i may vicariously experience this autox. :0)

 

You mean the part where a GS MINI is .2 off of SS times and beat the rest of Stock and SP? That one?

--kC

 

boeing is a small lot and the courses are thus typically very tight and technical. if the GS minis are going to kill it will be there. :0)

 

Was wondering where you were, Doug. I got the videos posted already on the other side of pond, http://www.phillyscca.com/forum/view...?p=14003#14003.

Excuse my poor driving, must be the temp. I had too much dead time in sweepers after reviewing the videos. Need to really practice what Evo school preach of looking at the other end of circle/sweeper. It cost me a cone and a longer line, neither of which helped on a small course like Boeing.

 

1st b-day for newphew-in-law. sucks olinchak got 2nd in STU. looks like i could've achieved a good result there. i still hope to claim 3rd overall in STU at the end of the year, but it's not going to be easy.

 

You are killing it at SJR SCCA. 4 for 4, T1, nice!
See you and Mark on Sun with my street tire.

 

street tires...?

 

Yes, just to make it more interesting...
I've been challenged by Mark, our newcomer.

 

huh. beddy, beddy interesting. are you guys running BS or STU? marks' been running STU.

 

I think the PAX for STU/BS/BSP are 0.820/.822/.843. So BS is nicely in the middle. I'm a BS guy who like to BS, so BS it is. Kinda want to get back to street after running R to re-learn speed control and virtue of slow-in-fast-out. Your lead is safe (j/k).










ps. I have nothing but respect for you.

 

Hardly challenged, mearly said that he was "just over a" second ahead of me (dirty) on the V710s i'm hoping to buy off him at the end of the season, if he wants to take that as a challenge and not wear them out anymore before handing them over he's more then welcome.

If noone would bat an eye I would run BS considering theres nothing giving a terrible advantage.... until next week since my tire and wheel combo will be changing for the next Philly region event, and if they get here quick enough the south Jersey event; that should rightfully place me in STU, beside i already made the magnets.

Anyone going on the 12th to Ripken Stadium heading over too zoom zoom live the morning after on the 13th. I've made a cheep reservation with 3 friends in a hotel 20mins from fex-ed field.

My two best from this past weekend.
36.708+1
37.436

PS i don't like the surface at boeing.

 

Looks like your math is a bit off, let's look at best scenario without counting for cone penalty. Your best time was 36.780, and mine 34.230, difference 2.55. Now with cone, your best 37.436 and mine 36.230, difference 1.206.

Now look at what you wrote exactly:
So there you have it. You can run in BS/STU, whatever you like. Makes no difference.
Don't get me wrong, I think you have potential. This sport takes time/commitment/sportsmanship.

As for handing V710 over, read the PM reply I sent back 7/25 that you haven't picked up. I may or may not part way with it depending on how worn they are.

 

forgive me on the pa site i was refering to the 1.206 difference and there i said just over a second while here i said only a second, i've made the correction

and theres nothing wrong with a little compeitive jeering, besides it makes for better jokes at the dinner the looser buys?

 

hey mom look what i did.

I overlayed some video to see where i lost all that time on my clean run.

Save it to disk and look at in quicktime frame by frame to really understand it, basically look at the gaps in between the cones:

Blue Cones (slower clean run)
Orange Cone (faster dirty run)
I'm dead even until the slalomn where my dirty run was alot faster.

It a little harder to understand (because of the 2 second gap) but i also put me on top of Steve (pun intended) to see where he killed me

Not that you should use my run for comparison, seeing I was not happy with my line, not tidy enough. Save your dinner money and use it for tire/schoo/treating gf. Let our drivings do the talking and clocks telling the story on Sun.

If I'm not mistaken, you dyno'd 200whp with flywheel/revi intake/exhaust in one your post. With you running on Goodyear F1 GS-D3, I'm sure my Kumho ECSTA SPT is in for a good fight.

 

20 minutes away? Hmm...hope that you're 20 minutes in the right direction. Otherwise...uh, good luck.

FWIW, there's a WDCR-SCCA event on the opposite side of the stadium from ZZL on the 13th. BS is running in the second heat (I think) which will probably start between 10 and 1030 if you want to come watch. Or you can even try to get in when registration opens Sunday night, but if you do, you'll need to be there by about 8am and you won't be able to leave until the end of the third heat (usually somewhere around 1pm).

 

Flywheel and MS clutch are no longer on the car, (old sig), and the dyno was more around 180-190 not much more then I had stock probably a bit more area under the curve tho.

If your refering to this sunday i'll still be on my PS2s btw, i donno if you ever do south jersey.

In reference to what.... traffic? I got a hotel by the washington monument.
I spent 4 months in DC for my Hurricane Katrina Semester, I did the last zoom zoom live here it was on a saturday as well. Just took route 50 to adrwick/admore rd.....?
