I haven't uploaded any of my videos yet but I make an appearance in the rear view mirror of this Miata around 4:50 in this one and drive away from there.

Going three wide into turn one because awesomeness allows such things.

NICE!... I see the yellow miata at the beginning is Kyle Webb's car....he sold his old green NA for that yellow NB.....quite the funny character he is

In the software we write for out lab instruments, this is the code used to get into diagnostics/life-cycle testing.

I have a feeling not many people nowadays know/remember it...I saw it today and LOLd (memories)

What do these events cost to go? I really want to take my car there this summer some time when its done.

depending on the club that is running the event, anywhere between 300 to 405 bucks at mid ohio for 2 days

some places are cheaper.....but MO is actually a very nice facility (SCCA calibrated scales, nice paddock, decent garages, great track surface, etc)

E36 m3? What year? I can only imagine how fun my dad's '95 would be on that part of the track.

97

in my favorite sequence of corners

Gotta love Track Ego's.

no kidding....I hate when vettes hold me up in the twisties and motor away in the straights, only to have me on their bumpers two corners later

I remember seeing that ITR. There were several people that went off last weekend.

no kidding....Dave (silver '06 mustang in Time Trials) crashed in Thunder Valley on Friday..... and he drove the car here from CHicago....he found a way home.........very nice guy and super good driver too...He instructed me at Putnam last year

so this vibration happens at ALL rpms in 5th and 6th?

how does that compare to the same RPMs where this happens but in other gears (1st til 4th)?

how many miles on the car? what kinds of mounts (motor and trans) are in there?

yea, I got u

well, if you need a hand dropping the trans, lemme know by PM...I'm bought with pizza and beer

Honda trans are easy to work on thats a diy job!

service manual details how to do the work..............you should be lucky on that one TJ.................One you get rolling, it s really not that bad from what I can remember

200 to rebuild a trans labor?

wow....that s about 20% of labor cost what I was thinking without prior experience

What's your favorite corner at Mid-Ohio? I've gotta say I love that full throttle off camber left right before the carousel.

favorite corner driving? T9 up to T11 (run up before Thunder Valley)

but I love watching races at China Beach

I was working in tech all weekend (Friday, Saturday, SUnday)

helped a guy replace a clutch on his ITR saturday night...i was halfway twisted by the time the trans came out

I went for a few ridelaongs on Sunday

I was gonna do a hyperdrive but I opted not to since my pads (Axxis Ultimates) would have crumbled up (didn t bring my track pads)

I probably tech'd your car (can t see pics now...blocked at work)

my buddy's 911 and my car working tech with me (he races GTS2 in a 944)

this white ITR took me for a spin and spun out at T11

video of the white ITR spinning...jump to 2:40...shot by a Mazda Miata

@das borgen damn i should have set up a fantasy team! where did you do yours?

it is SpeedTV's

http://gpedition.speedfantasyracing.com/default.aspx?page=timeout

 

that was fuckin crazy, for those that didnt watch the race, right as he hit the "jump" the entire steering column broke and the wheel came off in his hands!

it sucks...I have him on my fantasy team......o well....major points from Button and Vettel anyway
