Congrats, STS! (Page 2 of 3)

I want to add that I had a 30 minute dogfight with the purple #4 Dodge Omni in the rain that I thoroughly enjoyed.  I think we swapped spots a dozen times and mutual thumbs up as I came off the track.  We were both clean, aggressive but clean, and it doesn't get any better than that.  THAT is the biggest reason I do this, man that was fun.

Yep it is amazing how different some drivers can be on the same team.  I WON'T name names but there was one team that was much slower than me and was quite good with the passes on my first stint on Saturday but then when I drove the last two hours on Saturday they were horrible.  Would not let me pass and I even was behind them one time going into one and they hogged the MIDDLE of the track pushing another slower car almost off.  I think everyone should have a team come to Jesus meeting and find out if some of your drivers are pricks.  One bad driver could make you peoples curse.

Bottom line is you if you can't compete with a faster car, let him by and then you can concentrate on catching the one's you can compete with.  Maybe it would be better if we had different classes like in Rolex or Lemans so people are just worried about beating the guys in their class.  Anyway pisses me off .

You guys were faster overall, but the reason you were catching us so fast at the end was because we basically lost the use of 2nd gear the last two hours. A 2.0L Honda w/o 2nd gear is a dog in EVERY corner at CMP.

We keep the head gasket on by doing the exact opposite of anything the Duff Beer guys do.  :)Leave it the f*ck alone and drive it.  Keeping the car cool helps too.  Overheating = warped head = blown head gasket.  We don't know how the car lived before we bought it (235,000 on the clock) but since we have raced it (that was it's 5th race including one 24 hour one) it has never even been over 200 degrees.

Yes you did!  You suck Bill!   I think you and I were both out at the same times and we both raced clean.

Also thanks to you for having brake lights you can actually SEE.  We have FOUR LED style (two high, two in the stock location) so there is no doubt they will be seen.  E-Speed...I know your one little stock 3rd brake light is legal, but it sucks IMO.  The only one worse was the CV that used trailer PARKING lights for theirs.  Parking lights don't have the bright filament on purpose...duh!

Not the MR2.  No issues with you guys, had fun trying to stsy ahead of you (and succeeded). 

Actually, we had 7 brake lights on the top and the 3rd brake light for a total of 8 brake lights. When it started to rain, they BF'ed us and told us that everybody thought it was a real wrecker coming up behind them. We were told kindly to unplug all of the brake lights on top. Sunday, I got special permission to hook 2 of the lights back up, so we had 3. I would have enjoyed seeing and watching one of the real Chevy wreckers that could have pulled up and passed any of the race cars in the rain.

Yep. They were still unhooked on Sunday morning. I wired in two of them during quite hour.

Yes I have plenty, but unlike Rob I can't seem to find the time to cut it up.  I'll let you know when I do.

Yep. We wanted more than one, but we also wanted to compliy with race contol. It's all a balancing act.

Is it what we talked about?

We can do BBQ, don't go out of your way.

I hear that.  we would not have had a good time on 14s.  If we ever run the car again, it would be on 16s to improve the gearing.   Not that we're going to run it again...
