^That's the dream for next year! This year I still need to build quicker reflexes and confidence in Auto-X before moving up. I figure just a few more events should do the trick to bring out the A-game lol

As long as the track is dry that day, you might get that chance

Looks like I am going to run heat 3 in PAX, bumming a ride in an AS Corvette.

BTW Long, where exactly on the base are we going to? Address or directions?

LtNoogie

This is the map to the entrance to El Toro. Once on base, follow the signs to AMCI.

I'm going to throw on the racing wheels and take a little test drive tomorrow. I'm scared.

Want me to just break the R-comps in for you? Don't worry you'll still get to ride along :evil:

You're still bringing the Yaris though right?

Jason@SportsCar

No, was not part of the plan to begin with. If the Yaris ever goes to an autox it will be much later in the season after we have it all sorted out.

SilverBack

Will it be ready to run in May (assuming something is scheduled)?

Jason@SportsCar
03-27-2010, 02:03 AM
No idea. When the car got put in EP that killed most of the Solo plans we had for the project - it has about 100hp to little to compete in EP, and all the other H Prod road race cars are in GP for Solo.

I did just get word from my shock guy that the boys in the Netherlands start building our set next week. :thumbup: So we should have them on for our April race at Buttonwillow.

cali yaris

well, we will proudly carry the Yaris banner tomorrow. My first day on R comps :eek:

That was fun, what were your times? Garm, Long?

cali yaris
03-29-2010, 01:53 AM
80.5 was my best, with no cones

The car has a lot more in it, I have to learn to charge the corners harder now. That was really fun, good to see you T Sport! :thumbsup:

cali yaris

also SUPER nice of Lt Noogie :bow: to share driving with JustJesus -- Jesus' car didn't pass tech because of a bent rim.

justjesus
03-29-2010, 04:33 AM
All I could muster up this time was an 86. Still a little worried about spinning someone else's car.

I'd like to thank a couple of people. Well, everyone for making out. My Pit Crew LOL.

Special thanks to GARM for being cool and letting me borrow his wheels (too bad the fit wasn't good). Thank you, sir.

Special thanks to LONG for not only letting me co-drive his ride, but for going the extra 2 miles (almost literally at El Toro) and getting a 2nd Tech card prior to them closing up...PRIOR TO ME EVEN ASKING HIM (to let me drive)!!! THANKS so much Long.

another good time at the event. I'm beat to hell though. SOOOOO freaking tired.

justjesus
03-29-2010, 04:43 AM

Hey, i was working the field when you ran your X-runs. Your car sounds HOT.

what kind of times did you post?

SilverBack
03-30-2010, 03:29 AM
This was definitely more exhilarating than Fontana. It's definitely worth the slightly longer drive.

And the schedule says we'll get to do it again first weekend of May (run order pending, but fingers crossed for afternoon runs)

justjesus
03-30-2010, 05:16 AM
no way man. It was just a hop, skip, and a jump away! (about freakin time)

cali yaris
03-30-2010, 12:51 PM
I prefer the morning schedule, but it's all good whenever they run us. I will be CSM from now on, so we probably won't run the same group. Maybe I can watch all you guys go by if I work your group, woooooo!! :smile:

thanks, 86, that's fast, I do shake off some time every run but only managed 91 on my last x tun. I so regret on getting those cheap all season tyres.

80.5 was my best, with no cones

80.5 is lighting quick for a YAIRS on that course, the stiff suspension, slicks, and turbo really pay off, I'm still waiting for the Nitto mid pipe from you:w00t:

thanks T sport -- I'm learning, I think the car can do better.

The whine of your supercharger going by was awesome.

Sounds like it was a great course, bummed I missed it - and my chance to test out the Corvette.

Nothing like jumping in to the SCCA Solo National Tour in San Diego in a few weeks in a car I have never driven.

Maybe I'll get myself an exhaust....to wake you up! !

I so regret on getting those cheap all season tyres.

I believe I've taken my all season Kumho ASTs to the max. I'm working on getting some real rubber for next time.

Sounds like it was a great course, bummed I missed it

My friend came up with me, and was regretting not taking his CRX. :)


Fellas...sorry for delay on pics/video. Not much was done this time, though, as I was a little not-so-happy about not passing tech. Kind of killed my mood. My friend got some pics, but, I'm not sure how much of the Yaris, as he left early for a dinner appointment (the group run was way late).

It was my pleasure. I know I can't blame the car for being slow. Next time, if you have to drive my car, I'm making you run on 3 cylinders.
