I just purchased my track wheels to do a lot of Auto X'ing next year with David and of course our very own allstar Jodi (boxstergirlie01). From what I understand she came in 1st place this year in her group (boys this chick can drive!). I am spending this whole winter setting up my suspension for the track next year. I HOPE I can turn in the same kind of times Jodi does.

not sure we'll be in the same class. thank godness! you'll wipe the track up with me! you'll be in the prepared or even the MOD class. i was stock, but with the 19"s, it bumped me up to prepared.
btw...if you wear a long wig and stuff a bra, you can race in the women's class! =)

you're not referring to the parking lot as "the track" right????

You really want to see them, Shaun? Okay, here you go...
Check out the front right corner, somebody hit a cone once too many!
Hulk Lambo!
They were giving hot lap rides to some lucky few around the track
A nice CGT in the parking lot

What the hell do you mean "if"...Have you been looking in my windows?
As for as "track" vs parking lot: Over in Bremerton where the Auto x'ing is done is not a parking lot. It is more of a track set up. The "track" in St.Louis was a parking lot and I refused to beat my car on that with loose gravel and broken glass. I am also planning on a few DE days next year and hope to do a weekend vacation at a drivers school.

i think you look GOOD as a blonde! and as for the bra stuffing, try not using something so lumpy. try silk. ya, bremerton motorsports park is also used for drag racing. it used to be a small airport strip. =)

Next time I get invited to these things, I'll definitely call you up.
I was impressed by how the e-gear worked but not the brakes. It wasn't as confidence inspiring as the PCCB on my 997TT and those rotors were ceramics too. The pedal seemed to have a bit of a long travel before anything would happen. The car handled very well, less of a tendency to understeer compared to my 997TT. There didn't seem to be as much steering feel though. Overall, I liked it but not as much as I like the 997TT and 997 GT3.
