if anyone wants to come up in the next few weeks it looks like it should stay cold enough that the track should still be good. im off the 13th-18th so that would be a good time.
Thanks Rich and Karen for the great weekend!!! (also thanks for letting me take your car around Karen!!! loved it!:biggrinhad a great time cant wait for next year, hopfully will have new car ftw!
dang you Rich... crap, i might be coming back up. who else would be game... Me Carl Rich to go hit up the track...anyone else got the weekend open in two weeks?
yep, i have to double check but I would be more than willing to get up there and trash my car some more.
I really want to go.. can't get a Sunday of for such short notice tho... Ill see what i can do for taking what days off i cant.
thanks for a great event rich and karen! im glad the practice track was bad ass since thats all the wagacy got to see but both tracks were amazing this time! and yea, im sure i will be seeing you pretty soon haha.
lol I was running around trying to get it done quick before all the cars fell through the ice:laugh: I'll deal with the group pics some more tomorrow. I didn't shoot off a tripod so patching a panoramic together will be sketchy
I'm down for a 3rd race a couple weeks. ITs spring break for me. Need to get the legacy running again asap!
indeed! tho i dont think mine stands a chance of being drivable for atleast another month. negative, gota wait till my school work is less crazy and when max has some free time before i can go get it. right now im borrowing jeremys tleg till i can get a ride to lutsen to get my integra. yarp, never even slipped. just went away. backed out of a snow bank, then some how all gears were like neutral and it smelled of serious death.
eeeeeeeeeeee, thats weird that it would just catastrophically fail like that. Too bad you can't use a 6mt clutch and flywheel. I have one sitting here at less than mid-life, and that would hold pretty well on that car.
^ yea it was really weird. but a new exedy is like 150 bux so thats not a big deal, but im not pulling the motor with out puting in that 2.5 block so that requires more $, and i have to wait till max's garage is avaliable again. but thats ok, iv decided im in no huge rush to get it fixed. but i do need to go get it from richs and get my teg out again.
Finally home after driving through an ice storm all the way to Hinckley. That made for a wonderful drive. There were all sorts of cars in the ditches the highway was glare ice. Although, I did have plenty of practice on the ice this weekend the rest of the cars out there made things scary. Thanks again Rich and Karen, Sara and I had a great time and we will be comming back for sure.
There is a very good chance of that. I would live up there with Rich if he would let me. Fishing in the summer and ice races in the winter and all the while my wife can go to work and support me.:laugh:
Felt kinda short to me.:dunno: It was good fun though. This thing keeps wanting me to invest in some better ice tires. The Nokian WRs are dandy in snow but on pure ice, they're barely any better than silica-based standard all-seasons and I end up at a crawl. ...makes me want to invest in limited slip diffs too, lol.
nick ill call you after work.. maybe we can split the price and go up there together... i dont think i can afford another
