[turb0mike] Trackside Pictures and Video Footage
Hello Everyone,
Finally got the car running right to do a couple of events... Ran 9/1/13 with Speed District at Buttonwillow. Posted a 2:01 in traffic and had a 1:57 virtual time (if you post the best sectors together) after only 2 sessions. It was rather hot as well. My day was cut WAY short as the fuse clamp on top of my battery broke and I was not able to have functional cooling... O well... Here are some pictures and a video of the event. Next stop was at SOW for the Global Time Attack/Targa Trophy series... It was my first time doing CW so I was getting used to the track. I managed to post a 1:24.8 as my best lap during the morning. My day was, again, cut short when I hit the backside chicane and bent both of my right side E88s and ripped out my oil cooler lines... absolutely pissed about that but at least I put up a decent time for my first time doing CW. No video for this event. My last event was at Autoclub Speedway for the BMW CCA HPDE. Car ran great, although it was super hot and dry. Track temps were around 110 and so my car was pulling power back significantly and I was only able to get in one hot lap at 3:00pm. I managed a 1:54 which was pretty decent considering I was lifting around Nascar 1 & 2. I will be posting video shortly... NOTE: They also had a funnel toward the start finish and did not clean up the top of the Nascar section. If I could have used the top section I would have shaved another second or so off.

I love how you made the E92 M3 pee their pants to where they just didn't even want to mess with you. THEN, you put enough pressure on the 996 to make them go off the track. Seriously, dude. You and your E90 are a 22-hit combo in Super Street Fighter II Turbo to me.

Fantastic shots. I was really pulling for you to pass up the Porsche and then he ran off track -- must have been the pressure you put on him. Great job!

Thanks for the kind words guys! The Porsche is actually a good buddy of mine so we had a good laugh about it. My car literally had no power that day because it was so hot.
