Alright I just got off the phone with Jorday, he has a request, he would like to make things fair and would like to have lots of fun. He has a reputation to live up to, cuz he drives a very........Xpensive car Audi A4. Well I drive a Subaru Forester, but doesn't wanna race me, but he much prefers anyone else with a stock WRX, he mentioned Vic's brother. Keep in mind for anyone who is even thinking about stepping up to Jordays level, he has been to BlackHawk and CBIR and he run's very fast on the street, especially on his feet. You have been warned! Now lets have some fun and see who's got what qualifications to shut Jorday down! C
I got a stock WRX, and I do believe that in fact he has an auto just like me so if he wants to go let me know when and where and I will take up the challenge. Is this a drag or track or what? I guess I should get some details before I get too cocky. I will also offer my car up for someone to drive if it is a track event as I dont have that much experience running in circle quite yet.
J Gardner, I think it will be a series of events, I cant imagine what but Jorday is very creative. Just be prepared! Skinny guys always find ways to slip out of tight situations. C
LOL!! Mushashi you crack me up! :-D I'm interested in simple comparison of acceleration.. specifically 3rd and 4th gear. Even a geo metro could take me through 2nd, with my wonder slipping stock clutch. <grumble, grumble> MNAutomatic.. I haven't yet owned a car with an automatic tranny, and hope to keep it that way as long as I can :-D. However, I expect a stock manual WRX to be faster than the A4.. I just curious how much faster it is. Might be interesting to compare against the automatic too. -Jordan

Well I am up for the comparison and I must be confusing you with someone else so sorry about that one. Just give me a holla if you want some competition cause I am ready to rumble anytime
So now Jorday is a DRAG RAVER Queen now? What happened to the sweeping turns and tight apex's, donuts in the paddock, or downhill drift challenge? Where's all the Professionals at? C
} Jordan's got a fast A4. He gave me a ride by my place the other night. Tires squeeling going 70 on a 40 mph exit. I'm like while he's saying "Yeah, but I want more power...and my clutch is slipping."

Grasshopper, there is a difference between what you may consider to be fast and what US (EPD) consider to be fast. Examples: Is Jorday going faster than a mouse? a tricycle, or how about grandma on a Sunday drive to Church? Anyways don't misinterpret his A4's fast. C

A) Yes, unless the mouse is running. Q) Faster than a tricycle? A) If Mushashi is piloting the tricycle, yes. If bikerboy is on it, it would be close, but I'd probably loose. Q) Faster than a grandma on a Sunday drive to Church? A) Depends on if she's riding in the trunk of Matt or Matt's brother's car :-p ;-) ( http://www.mnsubaru.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=504 for reference ) -Jordan

Second, you showed me Jordan's Audi got whooped my a Yugo in the streets of DT St. Paul while you were secretly taping him riding shotgun... what more is there to show me? } Now, Jordan's really gonna own you
I was impressed with Noah's driving today, a few more track days and he's up another level. I hope you brought my helmet home, Its alright if you did, cuz I'm glad you did, I know with the baby out, you need to get going, glad you made it out.
Now who else wants to take side bets on the side? JP vs Vic's Bro and anyone else? JP no CBIR for me, think of it this way, I want to give you more track time before Judgement Day! } So you keep work'n very hard and one day you might just get to Race ME!
Noah, I'm glad you have it, I dont need anytime soon til the next AARRF event which will be July 17, 18 to help my friend break in his DC2 track race car, unless I decide to go drag racing with another friend with his Nova. I won't be out there, problem not til next week, so if you dont mind please hang on to it or give it to Vic or Matt. Thanks, Chong
Vic, Is there s date set for the Down Hill Showdown between Jorday vs. your bro and anyone else he will expect challenges from? I'm excepting side bets from anyone interested C
Chong, I talked with Jack and he said when ever Jordy's available. Since Jordan is sick this weekend, it won't happen. Maybe next week I've betted on my brother... and have insurance for Jordan just in case it's an Auto Blackjack for the dealer LOL. Jorday's chipped A4 against a stock WRX... this should be fun }
