Heck of a race man!! You are definately a more consistent driver than I am...if you had cleared the green #11 you would have walked from me. At 31:06 I had you so worried though you ejected part of your front aero in a Spy Hunter move ;)Quote:

I condensed it down to the best clips and still ended up with 17min of footage, it's a good thing I forgot my rear-view GoPro... my 'highlights' reel would be 2hrs long! Unbelievable racing guys!!!
My camera only caught the first 2min of R3, but it caught an extreme 'oh shit' moment on the start. I hit an area of the track they haven't paved yet and discovered how poorly my brakes work on grass (as if I didn't already know). Thanks to anyone that moved to avoid me!
Some pictures from Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

Great start in R2 Mitch! You were only about 3 seconds behind everyone else... LOLQuote:

I've got that dinosaur song stuck in my head. That's funny. That was race 2, as I broke on the parade lap and pulled out of the way. Great to meet you this past weekend, hope to see you next year.
Brad
You're welcome.Quote:

Great race James! I had a blast holding off the charge while trying to get around Dan tha man, orange is definitely fast... just not as fast as red. Too bad turn 6 waited until the last race to bite me. Mid-turn, the front washed out like a mofo... and once again, I found myself picking grass out of my teeth.Quote:

My reply was meant for JP.
Then I won't tell you the other red 4th gen was Cody Powell.Quote:

Nice number JP. I'm glad the port work I did on the intake worked out well. I'm glad the bullet is working out for you. I guess I went a little overboard on the heads so sorry you had to swap them. Bet you are looking forward to the straight at TWS now!
Yeah man, the BL port-n-polish job is top notch! I recommend it to everyone!!Quote:

James,
You're going to be hard to beat with those numbers unless you make a mistake and everyone knows that does not happen often. Good luck CMC2 racers.
All,
Please send me a PM with a short summary of your weekend hi's and and low's so I can get them into a writeup. My plan is to get it out before the end of the weekend. Sorry for the delay, but I went straight from "race mode" to "vacation mode" with the family and just got home last night and am trying to play catch up on all the back and forth...
Thanks.

So I pulled my car off the trailer and onto a lift today... The transmission is fine, but it turns out that I disentegrated the Griggs Torque Arm bushing. That led to the torque arm hammering up/down and breaking the driver's side crossmember bracket which is welded to the subframe connector. That "slop" allowed the front bushing bolt of the T/A to rotate into the driveshaft, causing the horrible noises. So, it appears that it can be fixed with about $100 worth of Griggs parts and a bit of TLC with the welder...
On the up side, I'm glad the bolt hit the D/S, otherwise if the whole crossmember dropped out of the car and under braking became a catapault... that would have been BAD...
Guess I had someone looking after me...
Pics to follow.
I love it when you call me Big Proctor! Wave your hands in the air if youse a true Player. Cause I see some ladies tonight that should be having my baby, Baby!Quote:

After watching a couple laps, I think you could benefit from one (or both) of these.Quote:
