  1. I'm Jelly as fuck!

    I have got to get down there next year. Looks like a blast!

     

     

     

    Nice pics, Camera/Gear?

     

     

    Thanks guys. Yes, it's a blast. This was our 13th race together with my dad and brother and look forward to it every year.

     

    Canon Rebel XT with 75-300 Non IS lens. Left my monopod at home this year. These are all handheld shots.

  2. In the warmer/dry months it will just eat away at your tires much quicker, because the compound is so soft and made to resist 'freezing'. Steering response and ride will be extremely 'vague' all the time as it is with any winter tire on a car/truck/SUV
  3. Usually don't make threads like this here, but pretty excited that my wife and I are expecting in early April, and it looks like I finally need to get that shotgun .....because it's a girl :no:

     

    1 boy and 1 girl.....99% sure we're done after this one......

     

    Took advantage of the nice weather and great looking trees to have some fun with the announcement on Facebook......

  4. What are those two red shock-looking things under the hood? What are those two red toggle switches for on the windshield?

     

    Red is the external reservoirs and adjustment for the adjustable dampers, and the toggle switches (which has written on them) are a 'kill' switch and 'fire' switch for corner workers. If the car has an accident and the driver is knocked out or can't reach the fire pull and there is a fire, the corner worker can kill power to the car and activate the fire suppression system all from outside the car.

     

    Kill switch is mandatory for most sanctioned racing.

  5. Thought you guys might enjoy something to break up your Friday......

     

    David Haueter from Bimmer Magazine was here this morning shooting pictures for a piece he's doing on the PTG car sometime in 2015 (i'll keep you posted on that).

     

    Here a quick walk around video of the 1995 IMSA GT BMW M3 that had a 4 year ground up restoration done right here in Hilliard, OH at TC Kline Racing.

     

    This is THE #1 Chassis (named: Rachel - sister car to Gretta) from BMW Motorsports....

     

    Enjoy!
