[Acuracy]

I'll be there saturday ready to get pwned by more experienced drivers. I wish it was later in the month and I had my springs on first but oh well.

[Semi Jew]

i had a dream the other night that i ran a 31.9 on saturday, no lie.

[STiDriven]

i had a dream the other night that i ran a 31.9 on saturday, no lie.

Was that before or after the dream where you steal an orphans money and invest it in low risk mutual funds while simultaneously having butsecks with said orphan?

[poon]

lol, never hurts to dream. I had a dream I was balding and fighting off zombies last night, fudge that.

I wont know if I can cut a 31 this weekend. :thumbdown:
I was looking forward to it, but im not going to flake on a buds bday. Ill be out sunday.

[ISMELLRICE]

i wanna go...unfortunately my crappy altima might not be good for this!!!

[STiDriven]

i wanna go...unfortunately my crappy altima might not be good for this!!!

Your altima will be fine. We had a former member on the site who autocross his regular 08 altima.

[Semi Jew]

lols, maybe not a 31, but i think the car could do a 32.3 or so on street tires if i could drive it to that. well, i know it can... when i let laslo kis drive the car he did a 32.5 on azenis and the old suspension... just gotta get that last half second or so, which is always the hardest.

[urban8designs]

and poon - no, i had like 33.006 two times ago on billys azenis, but kept getting slower with my worn ones.

[STiDriven]

i'm 6'1, 270, 42 pants

[Semi Jew]

[poon]

Roger that big jew. I think a lovechild 32 will be made this weekend.

[Casco]

cant wiat

[stevieg]

ill see u guys out there tomorrow

[SRTfreak239]

ill be there tomorrow

[Hawk]

fuck... i got the new car and forgot about this shit...

[Semi Jew]

theres always tomorrow bro.

i ended up helping out with instructing today, i did two runs without instructing, and did a 32.8 and 32.7. it definatley handles better, ill get more saturday runs at the next event.

[ISMELLRICE]

could of gone today but the old lady wants to go to her family's party :(...
i would go tomm. but $30+$20gas+food= too much cash lol...
getting some springs this week though so maybe next sat.

[stevieg]

i got the worst farmers tan in te wold today. it was pretty slow today there was also a lot on noobs there today.

[MikeJones]

i pulled a clean 34.02 in my buddies focus, not bad considering i havent been out there in over a year, and not familiar with the car.. i cant wait to get back into it, i had a friggin blast today..

nice meeting everybody, and thanks for the ridealongs instructor dave, the car felt solid :thumbup:

[Semi Jew]

thats a nice time mike, what did nick end up running in it?

[poon]

Wont be able to make it out tomorrow, the car is down. :(

[Hawk]

theres always tomorrow bro.

no luck, i got to work at 2pm and they make you work the course on sundays so i couldnt get out of it early enough to run. plus this bullshit torque management needs to come off before i have some fun, it pulls timing to like 12 degree positive at redline.

[Acuracy]

My first time out and it was a blast. Rockin the farmers tan too of course lol. Didn't have my car so I ran the rx8 instead but i'll have mine next time for sure!

[Super Unique]

I don't think I could of over driven my car anymore than what I did. I was beyond frustrated after my 3rd and 4th runs.

[MikeJones]

thats a nice time mike, what did nick end up running in it?

i believe his best was somewher in the 35s, i dont think it was clean though.

i also drove his cousins focus, the white one that you drove and put up a low 35..

i missed it alot, im hoping to get with it again, and hopefully start doing some more auto-x/cart racing/drift events in the near future :thumbup:

the only thing about autocross, is, ill be welding the diff in the 240 pretty soon, so, not ever really driving a rwd car with a welded diff, i dont really know how it will be out there..

i would think that if im smart with the throttle i should be ok, but, we'll see.

gulfcoastautodrift ftw.

nothing too exciting. I really need to get a DSLR with a decent Zoom.

[STiDriven]

Nice. What kind of course was it today? Fast, slow, technical? Anyone have a scan of the course map?

[Super Unique]

No scan or pic of the map.. Its in my cup holder, but it was a fast less technical course. I was in the 69-70 range along with Casco. I think the fastest time of the day was around 62. I was near the top of 3rd on a certain part on the front stretch.

[Casco]

the course was fun i cant belive dave got me by .602 sec. i love that i have comp. now in my class good job fellow dsp drivers

[Casco]

cant wait till next time

[Z1NONLY]

Well I just finished re-doing the brake job I jacked up a few weeks ago.:o I didn't lube the sliders or the edges of the front pads. My right front was getting stuck and smoking. :sprachlos020:

I was getting brake fade before the end of side A. I never get any fade on an autocross track. But today, it was enough to take me off my game.

Oh well. Next time is only a few short weeks away, and the brakes are ready.:)

My new tires will match at all 4 corners too. (The old set is way done)

[Only_In_A_Domestic]

had a ton of fun today

im learning new limits for my car now

[Super Unique]

You'd have more Competition if I didn't beat myself. :thumbup: One of these days I'll put together some cleans runs back to back. lol

[Semi Jew]

it was a pretty legit day. the course was a good mix.

im still learning the new setup of the car, so i expect to do better (relatively) over the next few events. i wasn't anywhere near what the car could do yet on the turnaround and slalom. but my first time out with the new setup doing that well made me happy.

it finally does what i want, instead of fighting back... like a good bitch.

+1 good job everyone.

[Billy]

i had a bad day, my car was fuckin up something fierce. hopefully i can get it all ironed out before next event.

[Super Unique]

Gotcha.. sorry don't really know anyone. Been in Fort Myers for 5 years and I've normally kept to myself.

Next pca event?

[Jeepin']

This morning I stopped for a splash of gas at the chevron, corner at daniels and treeline, as a green focus #694 pulled in too. I'm assuming he was running today too.

[Billy]

Next pca event?
GCAC event.

when is the next pca event?

[poon]

april 12.

[urban8designs]

good times. the louis vuittion could only manage a 33.3. we'll be at the gorally.com track next saturday. open track day for $250. fyi.

Z1INONLY - shoot me your email and i'll give you the lemons info. that is, if you're the guy that wanted the lemons info (sorry, forgot your name).

luker@playmoreonline.com

[Z1NONLY]

That was me. You've got a PM.

BTW, Was the 33.3 on race tires or the street tires?

[MikeJones]

yeh thats my buddy nick's car that i put up the 34 in :thumbup:

[Super Unique]

Nick is a strange dude.

[poon]

lol.

[urban8designs]

the 33.3 was on old, air leaking kumho victoracers. i only got two tail happy runs w/ the falkens. 35.3 i wanna say.

[Z1NONLY]

I think I only saw one of the street tire runs, but the car seemed to turn well for a FWD. (And you kept the back end where it belonged pretty well.)

[Super Unique]

I need more seat time. It was roughly 5 years between my last Road Race event (Willow Springs, CA) and my first Autocross event with GCAC last May. After 8 events I still feel really rusty. I'd love to do what I did back home and travel to events every weekend, but my work schedule does not allow it. Part of having a career and growing up I guess. I think I'm going to start requesting the entire weekend off when the events come up. Maybe the Saturday practice will allow me to put together consistent clean runs, and knock to rust off. Instead of going from a 69.6 to a 71 during the course of my 4 runs.

[urban8designs]

you get my email mike?

[Z1NONLY]

you get my email mike?

I just got home and read it.

(Right after work ,I dismounted / mounted two sets of tires. Man am I "tired".)

I will run the numbers and get back to you tomorrow.

-Thanks.

You need to come out and drive more. I wish that I could be there next Saturday, but I will have someone visiting. I would love to have you ride along with me these days. I hope to improve my car's setup and my driving enough to be in the 29s by the end of the season. I was at 30.7 with a weak clutch and significantly less power. Next month I will be there but the car won't be ready for a 29 anything. This Sunday we have a members' family and fun day, so I will get to drive at least 15 laps on a full course. Its one of the best parts of being a member. We always open the course up a little to make sure we can play with some speed.

[Billy]

hey john, i never heard the results from nationals, how did you do?

last i heard you were .2 behind the leader after the first day.

[veloce23]

I did not drive well on my first two Sunday runs, then I hit a cone on the final run. I still wouldn't have pulled past first, but it was good to be only .158 sec off of Corey Ridgick after day 1. I ended up 4th out of seven. Corey was .2 sec faster than my raw time on Sunday still, so he and other drivers were very encouraging about my driving. They all stressed that I need to finish my setup and keep working on having great first two runs. It was good to see where my skill level stands against such a good STU driver. Corey makes it look easy. I can definitely see why he is a Prosolo Champion in STU, and was faster than the STU leader on day two, only after a bad day 1. Gotta love that about autocross. Be fast, but be consistently fast.

Sounds like a lot of fun.

[veloce23]

The member fun days are awesome. If I had some old tires, I would do 30 laps at least, but I try and save my tires for events where I can race against more people. Well, STU doesn't have alot anymore, but I can race against all of the other classes that are supposed to be faster than STU. I try and beat them, even though it is often unlikely. Of course, the battles with my brother are always good too.

[Z1NONLY]

Scion shoot-out!

[poon]

How many people plan on going to the pca event the week after the next gcac?

[veloce23]

Scion shoot-out!

That's right! Must kill those tires, and get the RE-01s on.

[Z1NONLY]

That's right! Must kill those tires, and get the RE-01s on.

I'm sure we will, brother.:thumbup:

[Super Unique]

cant wait for this weekend.
