Slowpokes @ BIR July 4th Come up and represent, I will be! Note: This event is for people who have experience with high speed track driving. BIR is a high speed track and there will be fast moving traffic. It's open lapping all day! Yep, as much as your brakes and tires can handle. I'll be giving rides all day. Come up and hop in. Bring a helmet and your Depends I have an extra helmet but it will prob be sweaty and smell like my bros puke :biggrin: Four wheel drifts and corded tires here I come :laugh: Sorry, here is the link: http://www.slowpokes.org/events.html Josh
I know a few Porche guys going to the event. I might have find away to stop by say "HI" and take you up on your offer. I have work later that day, so I wont be able to stick around very long.
sweet, i can go out there and you could give me a couple laps for my birthday:biggrin: , i will see if i can make it out, i may have b-day stuff i have to do though.
Ill have to stop by, ill be up there that weekend. Ide probably participate but I just cant swing 250 right now Plus, ive never done an event up there yet...
I was just thinking you should get BIG Solera magnets to put on your trunk so when your passing all these Porche's, Lambo's, Vette's these ballers can know where to go to get some of the best food in town....LOL :laugh:
i may have to check that out.... ill be in battle lake all week so ill want a change of senery by then
Stop by. Birthday ride it is! Just drove there Monday and Tuesday and made the Audi boys cry, all of them Especially the guys with their "blah blah FullStageThree blah blah". I've never seen so many points to pass.
Here's what's on it: Engine: SBR 20g Perrin TMIC Nismo 740cc Injectors Walbro Fuel Pump GT Spec II Header Scooby Sport 3" TBE Perrin Big MAF Perrin Inlet AP Other bits: Zeal V6 Coilovers Perin Rear Sway Bar Tower Braces True Race Harness Bar Pagid Yellow Brake Pads Sparco 5pt Harness Set of Hoosier Cup's 245-45-17 Set of Dunlop Super Sport Race 235-40-18 It's a hoot on the track. Here's what happens when you four wheel drift at high speeds with -3 camber. This is my right front tire. I felt it starting to go and pitted. It blew in the hot pit about 20ft past pit in. :eek4: Needless to say, this set is toast. I'll have to run my 17" Hoosiers.

MCJT-I'll be up there as well to catch a few laps with you, hoping to get some new idea on how your piloting your Scooby around the track! See ya up there!
Josh-Its great to finally meet you in person, had a great time at BIR, thanks for taking me around in your ride and sharing some R&R knowledge. Awsome setup! There was a bunch of really nice cars out there. Carrera GT Porche, Pantera, BMW Z4 M-the only one in MN and a few Subaru's. The Carrera GT owner said he was doing 170mph coming into turn 1.
thanks for the ride josh, too bad we got screwed and only got a few laps before the lunch break, oh well. thanks again :biggrin:
Thanks for coming up guys. And thanks Mushashi for showing me your lines. I always like to see new ways to find some speed. I ended up cording my first set of tires chasing the Carrera GT. I was able to keep up with him until the straights. I would only hit 140 according to GPS. My speedo was reading 155. I would then catch back up to him in the corners. I have some pics and short clips of me chasing him. I ended the day early with some funny whine coming from my rear diff. :emo: I still got a fair amount of runs in though. Well, I have to keep Matt busy right? I'll post some pics soon. Josh
