SoCal: Time attack tuesdays

[Matt@BOS]

Haters. See u there.

Fine, like...whatever man. Be that way. I've done some upgrades and will be gunning for that old Peg legger of yours. Hope for your sake that have those new secret protoype rear Baer brakes on by Tuesday.

Yah Doug, what he said. And I have new rod bearings so I should easily be able to run one good lap. You better bring it buddy.

Matt, I just chatted with Doug and we're thinking that getting on the road really early(3pm'ish) to beat the heaviest part of the traffic would be ideal for both our groups, and then we can just eat an early dinner in the area while we're waiting for it to start and be primed for the early sessions. Is that too early for you?

[Matt@BOS]

Ok, leaving earlier sounds good. I'm not afraid to admit I have the eyes of a feeble old person. So daylight and less traffic is a win-win.

Dude, you better school me out there---my left rear shock is still blown---never did get it fixed. Maybe the one legger will help offset it--LOL. This should be fun for sure---I plan on coming in last on this course time wise, but I will be having a blast for sure.

safety requirements and tech inspection? i can't find any listed.

You know I'm not sure. I looked for that too and finally just figured if I passed all the others I've been to recently I'll pass this one. When they did tech my car the only two things I noticed them checking were for the throttle return spring and that the battery was mounted down.

Oh sure Doug, you're always pretty quick out on the track. I suppose you're one of those, "under promise, over deliver" types then. I'll bet you have driving gloves and shoes that you wear everyday, then hide for these events.

Also, as per safety, is and open face helmet fine? I'm guessing it is since they seem so lax about tech and all of that good stuff.

Matt

P.S. What is the Stig up to? He's been conspicuously absent from this post. I'm guessing he is busy...

ah ha ha ha I can just picture it! Matt's hitting with both barrels in this thread!

I *think* I saw some open face helmets while there. I'm pretty sure it wont be a problem. They even have helmets there for people to use if they don't have one.

I did receive a mysterious txt from him this week with an LS looking block...

It's the alignment---got the hella flush settings on this bad boy just for this event. Going to blow the RR shock tomorrow so that I have a matching pair. Me and my 235 drag ready front runners are ready to rock girls---be ready.

Yeah, where the heck is STIG? Going to text him tomorrow and find out what is up. Did he score a lady friend perhaps?

I would have to agree. Doug is usually very quick at the track.

Matt, you're very close with your bet. I stopped by his house one morning when he was helping me with a tow and he came outside with his race gloves and race shoes on and he was eating cereal out of his racing helmet. I think it was Fruity Pebbles.

Looks like we got a decent size group coming. Excellent. More witnesses.

Really, Fruity Pebbles? Is that an allusion to the whole fudgepack thing? Because if so, that is going too far. Say what you will about the hellaflush stance or gaps on the man's car. But to call out his character like this, well that is another thing. Ordinarily I'd have your side here, but let's be honest, Doug is gonna kick our asses Tuesday, and then things could be really awkward.

Oh, and Stig, how are the prospects looking for making it out? Will Jeremy Clarkson and the BBC let you off?

Matt

Trust me, I'm counting on Doug kicking our asses. The man can flat out drive that one-legger of his. That's why I'm trying to get my shots in now! He'll have plenty of time to get back at me when we're loading my car back onto the AAA truck after 3 laps.

[DFRESH]

Let's be honest here----I was eating Coco Pebbles--that fits better with the whole Fudge packing thingy--. I can't explain the gloves/shoes thing when you came over---I don't like to talk about it.

I have nothing in my text sent items concerning dinner---however, should Jon and Stig make it, I would now feel obligated to pay--especially since Stig just bought Tyler's friend's GMR motor.

I have a blown shock---and i'm only fast on peanut courses because I don't have to get out of first gear. The only reason Chad went and found this place is to run me into the ground because he knows I will finally have to move my shifter into second gear. He's been going to this track for over a year now in prep for this moment.

I will not wear gloves or racing shoes---those of you that do will definetly be called FP's for sure---. Riverside------is anyone going to be packin?

Been super busy with work lately...

I did receive a mysterious txt from him this week with an LS looking block...

Muwahaha... I call it 'lil screamy'

Doug

lol...


This would be so much fun... if I didn't work nights. lol


You know, I'll look into my schedule... being that I drive a work truck 99% of the time and need the tools that are in it for what I do it's hard to bring the G8 to work. Although we're at a job site for a few days next week, so I can potentially leave my tools on site... and bring the G-Ocho...

Should make for an interesting conversation with my Supervisor......

And with all the night driving I do, I've got this 'ish on lock down.


Btw, Doug said he's buying dinner...

I have a copy of a text he sent me... "I'm buying dinner."


See... in writing. I'm getting it notarized. By this afternoon it'll be legit.


Dougs bummed.
