I have some project to finish befor the boss cames back from Europe, but I plan to go up the Baysox Stadium on the 25th and run with the Potomac Porsche club. Need to get up early, o boy.

They allow also other cars, but no Crevette.

Cheers
Engelbert

I went to that site a couple of times last year with the BMW club, it's fun.
But I think that I will have to work that weekend.

VMSC AutoX 5-12-2013

Great course! (even though I was _itchin when I was walking it)
World order is now back to normal now that the frogger is chasing the shrimp.. Smiley

Funny thing is that the ones that were complaining got the top positions!

Since I am not going to VIR, I am thinking to go autocross somewhere.
Is anybody going to Pungo or Verona this Sunday?

After hours of negotiation and 200 bucks in my pocket we decided to make a German car course.
Just kidding! All set for tomorrow, lets go racing!

Looks fast, I like it.
Do not know what tires I will have in my car, the old beat up Hankooks R-comps or the 2 year old Direzzas. Might have to get my pit crew (wife) to bring one of those sets. LOL.
Can't wait for the season to start.
Gunny I will be there at 7. Not much help since I can't lift anything over 20lbs. Doctor orders.
Justin since when do you need a car to be set up to be fast?Huh?

By the way...
That blue Corvette ain't got nothing on me!!!
12  General / Open Forum / Re: Virginia Motorsport Club Banquet on: February 28, 2013, 02:15:54 PM
To all,

Thanks for the great season in 2012. Super competitive and just a fun season for me. Thanks to  Ricardo, Chris, Justin and Harry to name just a few. You guys really made me go faster when I didn't think I could. Hopefully the target I have on my back can be transferred to Richardo! Let him be the bench for this season. LOL.
Anyhow, looking forward to 2013. Hopefully I'll have a project driver I can work with this season (I have one in mind if he can make the races) and beware I'm going to bring the camera this season. Lots of pictures so I can update VMSC's history books.

Had a great time at the banquet!

Gunny
PS  I've updated my racing "I love me wall" That Chevy Plaque looks great on the wall next to my Pink Floyd girls!
Who is "RICHARDO"? He must be fast!

14  Events / Autocross / Re: 2013 VMSC Autocross Schedule on: February 18, 2013, 07:25:00 PM
I'll take timing and scoring in March, April I will be out of town, not sure yet about May.
15  Events / Other Events / Re: First Settlers' PCA Driver Education event at VIR on: February 02, 2013, 12:18:24 PM
I can't plan for anything from April 10th to the end of May, other then that I am good for any event.
16  Events / Other Events / Re: First Settlers' PCA Driver Education event at VIR on: January 29, 2013, 07:07:58 AM
I can't go in May. After 13 years finally my mom decided to come visit us, she will be here in May. Maybe another time.

Looking good Gunny!
18  General / Technical Help / Re: Spring Compressor on: January 16, 2013, 06:05:07 PM
Konis are in. Ended up getting a single action spring compressor. Shock mounts with cracks so had to replace it. Old shocks.... rear right had no action on it, rear left not really smooth, front left no much action left on it, front right was ok. I am glad that I replaced those shocks.
Now all left to do is flush the fluids and start messing with the 325!
19  General / Technical Help / Spring Compressor on: January 13, 2013, 11:27:12 AM
Hey guys, I am working on installing some new shocks and my cheap spring compressor does not compress enough for me to mount the new struts, there is not enough coils to be compressed. Any ideas how I could get it done?
Thanks

Just wondering who has injured while working on your auto x vehicle?

I broke my little finger today while working on the Vette! This is going to make my money making work very tough!

Gunny
That sucks!
So due to your injury you won't be racing next season?
Just kidding!
I never hurt myself working on the car, but I shot a framing nail in my hand  a few times, that hurt a bit.

Well, my trip was canceled.... I don't want to go into any detail.

I am not doing anything special, but I heard that somebody is like "Oh shoot, that guy is so fast, let find a Z06 to drive on the last event!!!!" . LOL.

Ha, that made me laugh out loud.
If you want me to I'll bring my slooooow non z06 vette!
That guy at the tire shop was suppose to crush that wheel! Damn I didn't give him enough Legends!

Gunny
I knew that you had something to do with that!!!!
