RTTC results

[rsk68]

First things first, Thanks to all involved!

What a blast, this was the first time I had my car on an open track, man it was cool, I need to find some more track time somewhere!
all the guys and gals were cool and my wife acctually enjoyed it too so we are looking forward to another event.

So will there be individual results posted at some time, I would like to know times for all my events, I know I sucked at the Braking challenge as I kept over reving and it wouldnt shift into 3rd, the open track felt like I was realy fast, I could of been the slowest one there but it felt fast to me.

[Nessumsar]

I spoke to Bill right before I left and he said that he would get Yancy to post the results (because if he had to do it, it wouldn't get done, lol).

The road course was too much fun, it really helped me to learn how my car behaved. I now know that it has too much rear brake bias, and has brake-induced over-steer (pretty fun, but not fast...). And more than 3-speeds and 3.08 rear gears would be nice!

And thank you to David Pozzi, he didn't have to do anything, but I used his alignment specs off of his website and they were magic!

[Danny Thomas]

I will get with Yancy and see if we can get those posted. His wife and kids are out with him so he will be busy doing the family thing most of the week. I will get the info and may try to get a head start...if not by next week after Del Mar for sure..Danny

[Vegas69]

Cool Danny, please post the exibition times as well. I'd like to see all my numbers as well. Appreciate the great time. :bananna2:

[mpozzi]

This was the most fun event I've been a part of ever and had a great time pounding the ever lovin' chit out of a Camaro. Congrats to Brian Finch for his overall win and he was so solid on all three competition timed portions. Winning one and placing very high in the other two sealed the deal and his car is very worthy of the top spot and the coveted invite for this years OUSCI.

Can't wait until the next "Bill Howell & Co" production and I'll be there.

Cheers,
Mary Pozzi

Definitely had a great time and wish I could swing staying the week for the Good Guys event also.

The event was a blast! This was the first time I have participated in a track event and will definitely attend again! Drove the GTO hard and drove it home!

I need a new freakin' tire.

[Mkelcy]

I need a new freakin' tire.

You may want to tinker with the proportioning valve. That thing was nasty - you should post a picture.

[Chad-1stGen]

agreed. We all need another tire pic to laug.. er learn from :)

[hotrod69camaro]

I had a great time with my car and meeting and seeing all the nice people. I would like to attend the next Bill Howell event out here on the west coast too. Thanks to Bill and his gang. Great job.

Carl and I caravaned home since we live a few miles from each other. You should had heard that thing on the freeway. It sounded like an exhaust leak when he was to my left.

[CarlC]

During the stop challenge it never pulled, squeeled, drifted, etc. Just a nice smooth stop, that is until the huge plume of blue smoke passed me by. I flat spotted it on the first run, and took 5th overall on the second!

I did not get a pic, and I'm on the road.

[6'9"Witha69]

I said it before, you shoulda put it on the back and done a burnout, that would have rounded it out!:6gears:

[Nessumsar]

It was a pretty impressive plume Carl, dare I say the biggest of the day!

[Mkelcy]

It was a pretty impressive plume Carl, dare I say the biggest of the day!

I think Carl mentioned it was about $320 worth of tire smoke.

[Bow Tie 67]

Ouch!!

It all started when Carl felt compelled to mention to the other guys on one of our "Cruise the Crest" runs that I thanked the nice CHP officer as he handed me my speeding ticket . . .

[CarlC]

I THINK that it is only one tire, so only $200 when she's all fixed up. For a 15-second run, that's a mere $48,000/hour of fun.

Too bad Mike. I have not seen a picture of the glorious janitor suit that I wore for most of the day.

Nick, there's no rubbin' that flat spot out. I exposed almost all of the first layer of cording across the width of the tire! Never fear though, all the magazine guys were snapping away when they oggled that feat of driving prowness, so it will likely end up in print.

Carl anything worth doing is worth doing well.

[zbugger]

Carl, I think you jinxed yourself when you told me you had five track days on them and they still looked great. I saw the flat spot and was in awe of the masterpiece it was.

[Mkelcy]

Indeed, it looked like a Jedi knight took a light saber to it.

[sik68]

Are the results up yet? It's been 5 days! :yum:

Carl,

You always pull off something spectacular. The most air at Buttonwillow, the most smoke at RTTC,... Can we call you Hollywood?

If we call him that he will have to put away the janitor . . .err . . . "driving" suit.

[Nessumsar]

They have janitors in Hollywood!

[406 Q-ship]

Carl is just the Ed Sullivan of Protouring events........"a really big show"

[Nessumsar]

Sully! haha

[rsk68]

I like the jump suit, I just cant find my size!

[6'9"Witha69]

I like the jump suit, I just cant find my size!
Hey, me either!!

I want to see the pic your daughter took of us standing next to each other!

[rsk68]

Little people unite!

[DFRESH]

Hollywood Cassanova.

Sounds like it has meaning. Love it.

Doug

[406 Q-ship]

Carl Hollywood Cassanova :lmao:

I like it

[aray327]

Rick, I think you could cut the extra length and give it to Nick. Then both of you would have custom tailored "hollywood" race suits.

[Nessumsar]

I'm going to wear my "driving" suit to the next event. It's bright blue with an orange "racing" stripe!

[rsk68]

Aaron too damn funny and a great idea!

[Vegas69]

I always wondered if Nick was really 6'9". When I first saw him I was hoping he wasn't one of the guys I've shot off my big mouth on. LOL

Nick is one of few I have to look up too......

[Chad-1stGen]

He managed to make me look short in that pic :)

[DFRESH]

LOL Chad---I was thinking the same thing--and you and I are the same height I think

Doug

[CarlC]

LOL! You guys are great.

I'm sure glad that my fashion sense and driving mishaps bring everyone so much entertainment.

Your's truly,

Hollywood.

[MrQuick]

Carl your doing it wrong, you gotta get the finger thing going.....
its "Hollywood"

Good seeing you again, I had no idea your were famous. I would have got your autograph. LOL

Vince

[CurtiSS 69]

LOL! You guys are great.

Carl,

You have style. Others try, and just can't pull it off. Although the Stig ranks up there as well. Maybe you guys should start a Joey Chitwood type show. I think they should assign style points at the next RTTC.

Carl, To your defense I bet your right front tire hit a little spot of lower traction when you were threshold braking and locked. You looked really strong on the road course.

You are a master of disguises...That Unibomber thing blew me away.

First -- It was really fun meeting most of you! I had a blast watching the smiles on your faces as you're beating on your cars...

When Carl smoked that tire - Greg and Greg were on duty at the Auto X -- my first reaction at seeing this atomic plume of smoke was to grab a fire extinguisher and start running toward the FIRE.... LOL

[CarlC]

Just wait until I break out my Garth Brooks garb. You guys will be speachless.
