hi george! hi bob! hi darren! hi jason!
the repairs to summit are really excellent; track is very good, and the transitions from the patched/fixed areas to the regular track are nicely done. track is fast and fun again!
right this minute, i am working on uploading my vid clips from the races; some really neat footage!
george - you were FLYING in the EVO!!!!! for a 'lightly tuned' stock turbo'd EVO with full street gear and Nitto NT01s to run like that (george ran a 1:24.1 per the TraqMate on sunday!) is really impressive!! - the new ReidSpeed suspension setup and adjustments really seemed to work
darren - you made a breakthrough this weekend in the Acura; you REALLY turned up the wick and knocked multiple seconds off your best laptimes. you ran right in the middle of all the 'fast' PTE guys. you were ballin' out!
jason - i watched you in the Spec E30 wars; you are definitely one of the 'fast' pack now; you have progressed WAY faster than a 'usual' rookie in that series; next year i expect i will see you mixing it up with Skeen and Cobetto and Bennet and Allen for the top podium spot!
bob - i watched your entire race on sunday (i stayed after i had packed up, cause i wanted to see the big bore rumble!!!). you GOTTA fix your motor; it was killing you! did you pull out the plugs and check them? can you get that car on a oscilliscope somewhere under a heavy load (maybe a DynoDynamics dyno, which can put a steady state long term load on the car?); maybe you could then observe whatever is going on with your ignition at higher rpms and heavy load, and fix that sucker!
i'll soon have the vid clips up on vimeo, and will post up a recount of the weekend, along with the movies! let me just say - the Probenstien was AWESOME; i ran a 1:27.1 on sunday in qualifying (on several year old used toyos!!!), and qualified on the pole for sunday's race!!!! i was victorious both days in PTE, and was third overall in the small bore heat both days ('Death Race 2000' car and an Eprod Alfa were first and second overall both days). updates soon to come!
see ya'll at Thunderbolt in a few days! (in the old honda civic)
