I wanna ride with someone, anyone, well anyone who is there around lunch or so. I wont be there until then.

Jay, you can ride in anything and with anyone, if you want, I would also be happy to let you try out the outback as well, since you are our administrator and all, I think you deserve a "pro-bono" few laps behind the wheel of something fast.

Is there a list of what everyone is bringing on Saturday? How can I put dibs down on rides unless I have the "insiders" information?

I spent yesterday in the shop helping my son get the brakes on his 90 all ready and putting the stock suspension back on the MINI. I took the MINI for a quick spin around the block when I finished. I hadn't driven it since last December, I had forgotten how much fun it is (even stock). I'm tempted to drive it on Saturday instead of the 993!

you still have your leda's? I thought you sold those. Bring the MINI, then let me drive it!!!!!

Oh, and what, there is no Allroad ride along line? hehe.

I could put back on the high profile winters and not bother to brake for the hairpin, raise the car up and just offroad it from the hairpin back to turn one.

cutting off the boot and the front straight would make my lap times faster.

heh, first in line for THAT ride!

I was lucky enough to go for a ride in the one that's coming out next week when i was out there on the Dec31 last year. SSSssssssoooooo much fun. Then I started watching the Prisoner and got all excited about it again.

Yes, I still have the Leda's. They were sold put the person renigged on the deal.

03Indigo · « **Reply #156 on:** May 23, 2005, 02:45:34 PM »

that sucks, if I had the cash right now, I would buy them from you, but just did a million things to the outback, and have a few medical bills to cover now.

I can't believe you have not driven you MINI since December...man, that car got NO love since the Porsche arrived :lol:

ColoradoMark · « **Reply #157 on:** May 23, 2005, 02:53:25 PM »

It was tough to drive it without any front suspension! If you're serious about the Leda's I'll finance you. They're not doing me any good sitting in a cardboard box! Maybe you would like some nice Stoptech's to go with them.

I love the list of rides.
I was thinking the same thing, as I'm very curious as to whom and what will be there.

I might want to beg for a ride in that alfa....

I should be bringing a 914 out and if I can figure out how to post pics I'll try and add one later.

5th??

On the other hand I'm certain that he'll must some instruction before he's turned loose with other passengers (no matter how skilled he really is). Rick and I will enact executive privelege and declare first and second rides.

Hehehe, I second that! Can't wait to see you all again. I'm trying to convince my dad to bring the toterhome/trailer out, but it's a lot of work for just the day. The SRT4 has a little damage so we might not bring it out (sorry, but Mid-Ohio took it's toll....). Anyway, I'll be there with the Focus bright and early!

Rick

brant914 · « **Reply #162 on:** May 25, 2005, 12:26:28 PM »

Rick,

Tell me about your focus.

I love the focus.

I took my zx3 to 2nd creek about 4 times. In fact did a school in it at 2nd creek just last april. But then sold it, and bought an SVT at the end of april. Have never driven the SVT on the on the track but just love the car!

that is fine, make sure you have a chat with either Rick or Mark, the instructors, prior to getting on the track. We are requiring everyone to have a run down before going out to drive...for everyone's safety.

Get there when you can.

cheers

Great. People are going to be there all day right?

03Indigo · « **Reply #166 on:** May 25, 2005, 12:49:28 PM »

yes, we have the track ALL day!!!

brant914 · « **Reply #167 on:** May 25, 2005, 12:56:33 PM »

I remember that there was a 5$ fee for spectators to cover food/drinks.
If my wife stops by for 20 minutes, but doesn't eat/drink, should she bring 5 bucks to get in?

brant

pyite20v · « **Reply #168 on:** May 25, 2005, 12:58:49 PM »

Is there any limit to how many spectators come? I have a bunch of friends that want to come. They will be allowed in the pits and everything right?

hey, at least I won't be the only allroad there!

pyite20v · « **Reply #170 on:** May 25, 2005, 01:05:32 PM »

Hey at least you have H Sways and a gearbox!

What about dogs, any chance I can bring my really mellow dog to hang out with us? There will always be someone watching him, he will make a great track dog!

Jon and Pat can jump in if I am wrong, but I figure if my kids are OK being there your dog probably is too. You'll just have to be sure he stays out of traffic.

That, and if he eats any of the food you'll have to pony up the $5.

03Indigo · « **Reply #172 on:** May 25, 2005, 01:45:33 PM »

people just visiting are FREE, if they want anything to eat or drink, we are asking an additional $5.

Pets are fine, but PLEASE make sure they stay AWAY from the track. An animal can cause a serious accident and may take the animals life...none of us want that.

Everyone is welcome, but we ask that you don't let other people drive. They must wear a helmet if they ride along with you, and there is no limit as to how many people come to visit. Everyone is welcome, and has complete access to the facilities and "pits/paddock".

Your payment only covers YOU to drive, not your car. Even though it is your car, that does not cover your friends to drive your car....we are very firm on this issue. If you are a paid driver, you can drive other cars, and have other paid drivers drive your car, but unpaid drivers will not be allowed. Only the 35 that have signed up will be allowed to drive on the track. We appreciate everyone's cooperation on this.

cheers

So uh...anybody have any extra helmets?

Ben

gragravar · « **Reply #174 on:** May 25, 2005, 02:23:56 PM »

I am bringing two spares. My spare size XL, and my Wife's which is either a SM or XS. I know at least one visitor who will want to use the large one for ride alongs. Other than that it should be free.

34k · « **Reply #175 on:** May 25, 2005, 02:27:58 PM »

I should have at least two with me as well.
I'm the little black GTI with the goofy-tall guy driving

pyite20v · « **Reply #176 on:** May 25, 2005, 02:29:49 PM »

What other cars should we expect to see there?

BHase · « **Reply #177 on:** May 25, 2005, 02:40:05 PM »

Well, for one, my rare and completely unprecedented 1998 Audi A4 2.8 Quattro! WOOOO!!!!

I heard something back a few days (or weeks) ago about the GTO club. I'd love to get a ride in one of those things.

Ben

pyite20v · « **Reply #178 on:** May 25, 2005, 02:42:02 PM »

I heard something about some GTO owner talking (friendly) smack to a B6 S4 owner. I'd certaily like to see that S4 whipp his ass!

92UrS4 · « **Reply #179 on:** May 25, 2005, 03:46:57 PM »

Ha, pyite20v, i talked to you a while back when you were selling your A4! Looking forward to meeting you at track day.

I'll be there (hoprfully) in the Scout. Wonder how it will track (just kidding).
