      test drive went great Gaetano, but bajeebus, we need to fix that bump steer issue. Almost ripped my thumbs off getting on to 92. Feels good. I backed off one click on ther fronts. I'll play more at the track.

      Carb is now worked, snappy and idles at 700 rpm...had a fuel leak but its all dry as of tonight.





      Chad I hope you make it out with us. I have a tow hook ready.

      Sounds good, thanks Vince, as long as we dont break anything Saturday we should be good. If we're lucky, hopefully we will get a full day in. Should be at the shop by 10:30.

      Definitely more people signed up this time, Chad hope to see you there.

      Hey guys, just a couple pics I took from the day. Nothing special. First off let me say "Thank You!" to Gaetano and Kyle for the awesome rides. What a rush. Amusement parks have nothing compared to that experience. It was great meeting everyone and putting some faces to the screen names. You guys are definately a wealth of information and I'm sure I'll have some questions down the road. I hope everyone had a safe trip back home.

      This time out at Buttonwillow was the best time ever. Me and Sevilla hooked up with a bunch of Tuners Friday night, drank beer, talked smack, and they fed us steak and shrimp all night. What a blast!! Hot Rod magazine showed up and interviewed us all and took a group photo. Hopefully that will be in the next issue. And on top of that I nailed some consistent 2:10's my last session.

      Rob, thanks for coming out. I'm glad I was able to take you out on the track.

      Chris, It was cool to finally meet you and you dad is really cool. I had a blast chasing him around in that bad ass vette.

      Aaron, thanks for coming, glad you could make it out last minute. Looking forward to seeing you at another event.

      Kyle, that '55 Chevy was bad ass!! Looking forward to seeing you at future track days.

      Team Dream Speed, Vince, Brian, and Allen, thanks for the track side support. Looks like we are going to have to find a more durable shock now.

      Chad, sorry you missed out bro, this one is gonna be in Hot Rod Magazine!!!

      Huge thanks to the Hot Rod Magazine guy's. Thanks for taking the time and the interest in our track day event. Looking forward to seeing the in car cam video's from my last session. It will definitely be a good one!!

      man what a great day....although im still in a Jardine's Mexican food colma....we made it back.

      It was great that Hot Rod took the effort to hang with the old cars. LOL Hope to see a great article soon.

      Great times Gaetano, now lets see what we can do at Infinion....might be off but I think you could use a wing?

      good to meet you Rob, e ticket rides for sure.

      Sorry we missed you Chad. It was some hot racing action.

      The Hot Rod guy told me to look for it in the January edition. That should be the issue sitting around the table when Christmas guest come by...

      I'm excited to see it. I was fortunate enough to have the top of the car show up in a group photo presented in Camaro Performers (unfortunately I am the only person who could tell it was my car), and then i was fortunate enough to be captured in another group photo in Muscle Car Performers, along with a good shot of my backside while drooling over someones car. But to be intentionally part of the photo is great; especially with the original paint.

      I had some WRX dude tell me i didn't point him by; of course he didn't care that i was riding the bumper of three other cars, because he needed to pass!

      Will you be in Hot Rod WRX DUDE???? It's the one that sells out, that you glance over when you pick up Tuner World.

      GREAT DAY. Saturday ROCKED. I finally got out on the track. First session, second lap got flaged for smoking. Oil out of the valve cover and on the header, that sucked. So $6 bucks later its fixed. Second session was a blast till I broke a lower control arm bolt "Thats what that noise was" on Lost Hills. 2.26 not to bad of a time.

      It was great to meet a few new people and put faces to tag names.

      Kyle. The "55" is one Bad Ass ride.

      Aaron, nice to meet you, hope to see you out again.

      Chris, It was nice to meet you and your dad. Dam that Vette is loud, and I like it.

      Rob, I know you had fun. Gaetano took you out and you were grinning from ear to ear.

      Great job on the car dream speed. Always good to see you guys.

      Gaetano. Great time at the Hotel talking crap and at the track. Good job on the time.
